Hi
I am working with php-libvirt,
How I can find the primary or bootable disk device of a virtual machine?

This can be determined from the XML config. Either there will be a
<boot dev='cdrom|disk|floppy'> device type listed under <os> in which
case it'll use the first matching devices of that type, or there will
be explicit <boot order="NNN"/> ordering listed under the specific device

Hi Daniel
I think I was'nt posted my question correctly, here is my senario I have a
virtual machine with 3 drives
vda, vdb, sda
I want to hide the *DELETE* button against the primary disk of virtual
machine, that was my question how to determine which is the primary disk of
the VM.

My response below still answers this. You have to either consider the
order of the disks in the XML, or look at the boot order values - which
ever is relevant for the guest config in question.
