Hi,
I'm running libvirt from CVS. I'm unable to get xmldump to work:
o virsh dumpxml <domain-id> doesn't work. Neither does <domain-name> instead of domain-id. (Aside: the documentation at http://libvirt.org/format.html needs fixing -- virsh reports a dumpxml command, but no xmldump command)
o I can't get an XML dump from the Python bindings either.
Looking at the code, it seems the XML description is built using the sexpr output from xend. On my machine, "xm list -l <domain-id>" prints out the correct sexpr, so it seems Xend is working fine.
Are you running a recent version of xen ? My guess is that you don't have http enabled in /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp
The libxend code works with the domain socket as well. Perhaps we should fall back to the domain socket if the host is "localhost" and the HTTP server cannot be reached? Regards, Anthony Liguori
localhost:~/libvirt/src -> grep http /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp # utilizes a bridged network configuration. Access to xend via http (xend-http-server yes) # Port xend should use for the HTTP interface, if xend-http-server is set. # Address xend should listen on for HTTP connections, if xend-http-server is localhost:~/libvirt/src ->
Most of the operations are now carried though Xend HTTP interface.
