Re: [libvirt] regarding libvirtd start

The command should be libvirtd -d -l. I think d for daemonize and l for creating a server (e.g. local connections to the daemon need this option). In the Debian package, there's a init.d script which does the job for you (options can be defined in /etc/default/libvirt...) - maybe there's someth

Okay I found out what the problem was. I stumbled over the bug in the creation of the Python interface that I filed some weeks ago (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=518029). Andreas Sommer wrote: Hi, I'm having a problem with starting a HVM virtual machine on Xen-3.4 with p

Hi, I'm having a problem with starting a HVM virtual machine on Xen-3.4 with python-libvirt. This is the XML: b07d6538-60f5-44a9-90e7-761304968e17 b07d6538-60f5-44a9-90e7-761304968e17 destroy restart destroy 131072 1 hvm Then

[libvirt] Support for XCI (Xen Client)

Hi, I just wondered whether the Xen Client project (http://www.xen.org/products/xci.html) has been tested, or is supported by libvirt at all? I'm not sure if it has a different Xen API, but it definitely has different domain configuration files - that's why I ask. Best regards -- Libvir-lis

Re: [libvirt] vTPM support in libvirt

I'm still experimenting around with the vTPM patch, and I want to install my version of libvirt on a Debian system - not in my $HOME directory but on the default paths. I followed the autogen command below and also did "make install", but now virsh for example searches for the certificates in /

Hi again, I found out that the important files for the patch will be - domain_conf.c - util.h - domain_conf.h - xm_internal.c Guess I could figure out how to code it, but I still need to know how to install libvirt from sources. There's no documentation about it... Andreas Sommer wro

rce code? Oh, and how do I need to configure it in order to install it on a machine (I guess "./configure --prefix=???" is important?!). Best regards Andreas Daniel P. Berrange wrote: On Thu, Jun 25, 2009 at 09:16:26AM +0100, Andreas Sommer wrote: I'm wondering if there will be

[libvirt] vTPM support in libvirt

I'm wondering if there will be vTPM support in libvirt in the near future?! Xen does support it already with the configuration "vtpm = ['instance=1,backend=0']", for example. So it would be great if the libvirt XML format supported it, too... For example like this: Both attributes are

I'm using Xen-3.2-1 on Debian 5.0.1-lenny and retrieve information about running domains using domain.info()[0] The domain object is retrieved via connection.lookupByUUIDString(...) and stored as a variable called "domain". Usually the running domains have the state 1 (VIR_DOMAIN_RUNNING) or
