[libvirt] Using virsh to load scripts for the guest machine

Right on the top of http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/5.2/Virtualization/chap-Virtualization-Managing_guests_with_virsh.html, it seems to imply you can load/send scripts to the vm guest using virsh. Is that possible? How and what are the limitations? Can you query the vm guest? -- libvir-lis

[libvirt] [PATCHv2 1/5] Add virDomainGetHostname

to query a guests's hostname. Containers like LXC and OpenVZ allow to set a hostname different from the hosts name and QEMU's guest agent could provide similar functionality. --- include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in |2 ++ src/driver.h |6 ++ src/libvirt.c| 45

[libvirt] [PATCHv2 0/5] Allow to query a guest's hostname

The following patches allow to query a guest's hostname. Once we also have support to set the hostname via the domain's xml we can also print it in "virsh dominfo" by default so I left it out for now. I left the version at 0.9.14. It'd be happy to change this ot 0.10 should we settle for that one.

[libvirt] libvirt + kvm external snapshots: use case?

Forgive my ignorance, but I'm trying to fill in some details for a Fedora feature page: https://fedoraproject.org/w/index.php?title=Features/Virt_Live_Snapshots Yet things aren't working quite as expected in my tests. I'm trying to think of this from an end user use case perspective. For example
