Hi justin, Is there a way to list the "defined/persistent" domains in
libvirt?
virConenctListDefinedDomains() doesn't behavior like that.
I'm really amazed, the behavior of "defined" in libvirt development
guide seems to be equivalent to "inactive".
But you guys told me there are different, it refer to the persistent
domains.
From my understanding virConnectListActiveDomains() is listing all the
active (running) domains and virConnectListDefinedDomains() is listing
all the inactive domains that are defined since if we create a domain
directly from XML, i.e. non-persistent, we have the domain in active
domains list but it's not defined. Only inactive but defined domains are
in the defined list AFAIK.
If we have 2 domains created *directly* from XML file, 3 persistent
domains active and 4 domains inactive (but defined) we should be getting
number 5 from virConnectListActiveDomains() since 2 + 3. For defined
(inactive) domains we should be getting number for and total number
should be 2 + 3 + 4 = 9 domains.
