Re: [libvirt] libvirt XML format.

Thanks for the reply Matt. I created a Linux Container(container1) using lxc-tools. I created a Domain(container1_vm) using libvirt and want to mount that container file system in the created Domain. For that, I created following XML format: <domain type='lxc' id='1'> <name>container1_vm</name> <memory>500000</memory> <os> <type>exe</type> <init>/bin/sh</init> </os> <vcpu>1</vcpu> <clock offset='utc'/> <on_poweroff>destroy</on_poweroff> <on_reboot>restart</on_reboot> <on_crash>destroy</on_crash> <devices> <emulator>/usr/libexec/libvirt_lxc</emulator> <filesystem type='mount'> <source dir='/var/lib/lxc/container1/rootfs/rootfs'/> <target dir='/'/> </filesystem> <console type='pty' /> </devices> </domain> The above XML worked fine, and domain started. Now, I created a bridge br0 in the host machine with the IP 172.16.1.10. I want to assign an IP address[172.16.1.15] to the domain, so that the host machine and domain will ping each other. I tried to assign 'default' network to the domain by adding the following XML block to the above XML file: <interface type='network'> <source network='default'/> </interface> But, when I start the domain I got the following error in the virsh console: error: Failed to start domain vm1_fedora error: Failed to add veth0 device to virbr0: No such device Can you please let me know the XML format for assigning a statis IP address to the Domain?

Doesn't matter if it's wrong. The domain XML is a valid XML document. Syntactically, you can put / anywhere it would be valid in an XML document.
