Re: [libvirt] serial console/events example script

Hi all, A while back I wrote the attached code to demonstrate how to use events and serial console to create a serial console that stays up even when the VM is down. Is it worth adding to the examples? It might need some work, as I am not terribly strong with Python. Dave
