Not quite a path node. I was thinking more like: <domain type='kvm'> <name>foo</name> <pool name='mypool'/> ... where the new <pool> element says that anything that the 'foo' domain does that requires creation of new files will do so within the already existing <pool> object with the name 'mypool'. We can also support <pool uuid='...'> (or both name and uuid at once). If the <pool> element is missing, that's when the domain uses defaults and/or refuses to do tasks where we don't know where to stick the files. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
