This was a semi-automated conversion. First it was run through pod2rst,
and then it was manually editted to use a rst structure that matches
expectations of rst2man.

+-----------------------------
+libvirt log management daemon
+-----------------------------
+

+
+.. contents::
+
+SYNOPSIS
+========
+
+``virtlogd`` [*OPTION*]...
+
+
+DESCRIPTION
+===========
+
+The ``virtlogd`` program is a server side daemon component of the libvirt
+virtualization management system that is used to manage logs from virtual
+machine consoles.
+
+This daemon is not used directly by libvirt client applications, rather it
+is called on their behalf by ``libvirtd``. By maintaining the logs in a
+standalone daemon, the main libvirtd daemon can be restarted without risk
+of losing logs. The ``virtlogd`` daemon has the ability to re-exec()
+itself upon receiving SIGUSR1, to allow live upgrades without downtime.
+
+The ``virtlogd`` daemon listens for requests on a local Unix domain socket.
+
+
+OPTIONS
+=======
+
+``-h``, ``--help``
+
+Display command line help usage then exit.
+
+``-d``, ``--daemon``
+
+Run as a daemon and write PID file.
+
+``-f``, ``--config`` *FILE*
+
+Use this configuration file, overriding the default value.
+
+``-t``, ``--timeout`` *SECONDS*
+
+Automatically shutdown after *SECONDS* have elapsed with
+no active console log.
+
+``-p``, ``--pid-file`` *FILE*
+
+Use this name for the PID file, overriding the default value.
+
+``-v``, ``--verbose``
+
+Enable output of verbose messages.
+
+``-V``, ``--version``
+
+Display version information then exit.
+
+
+SIGNALS
+=======
+
+On receipt of ``SIGUSR1``, ``virtlogd`` will re-exec() its binary, while
+maintaining all current logs and clients. This allows for live
+upgrades of the ``virtlogd`` service.
+
+
+FILES
+=====
+
+When run as *root*
+------------------
+
+* ``SYSCONFDIR/libvirt/virtlogd.conf``
+
+The default configuration file used by ``virtlogd``, unless overridden on the
+command line using the ``-f`` | ``--config`` option.
+
+* ``RUNSTATEDIR/libvirt/virtlogd-sock``
+
+The sockets ``virtlogd`` will use.
+
+* ``RUNSTATEDIR/virtlogd.pid``
+
+The PID file to use, unless overridden by the ``-p`` | ``--pid-file`` option.
+
+When run as *non-root*
+----------------------
+
+* ``$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/libvirt/virtlogd.conf``
+
+The default configuration file used by ``virtlogd``, unless overridden on the
+command line using the ``-f`` | ``--config`` option.
+
+* ``$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/libvirt/virtlogd-sock``
+
+The socket ``virtlogd`` will use.
+
+* ``$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/libvirt/virtlogd.pid``
+
+The PID file to use, unless overridden by the ``-p`` | ``--pid-file`` option.
+
+If ``$XDG_CONFIG_HOME`` is not set in your environment, ``virtlogd`` will use
+``$HOME/.config``
+
+If ``$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR`` is not set in your environment, ``virtlogd`` will use
+``$HOME/.cache``
+
+
+EXAMPLES
+========
+
+To retrieve the version of ``virtlogd``:
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+ # virtlogd --version
+ virtlogd (libvirt) 1.1.1
+
+To start ``virtlogd``, instructing it to daemonize and create a PID file:
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+ # virtlogd -d
+ # ls -la RUNSTATEDIR/virtlogd.pid
+ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6 Jul 9 02:40 RUNSTATEDIR/virtlogd.pid
