I've created diskpool.conf file in EAFP.01 patch as follows. Any other
file have to be created?
You'll need to create the diskpool file if the libvirt version <= 0.4.0
Otherwise, you'll need to create a virtual storage pool and make sure
the guest's disks belong to that pool.

If the libvirt 0.4.0 or newer, the disk pool is supported. But why I
can't
get th diskpool ID by wbemein? There is none output of wbemein
below(the libvirt
version is 0.4.1 on my test machine):
wbemein http://root:password@localhost:5988/root/virt:KVM_DiskPool
You'll need to create a storage pool. This process is similar to the
network pool support. Here's some more info:

The patch for KVM & XenFV support are all passed on my test machine, which
is set up by F9, the libvirt version is either 0.4.0 or 0.4.1. So I don't
reproduce the failing. Maybe I'm still in the confusion of how to make
this
patch work correctly, would you please give more detail instruction or
add another patch for it?
On your F9 system, which version of libvirt-cim are you running?
Diskpool support went in changeset 496, which is after the release rpm
was tagged.
