I read that libvirt can convert XM <-> XML and though I could export my current config to XM format, edit it and reimport. How is is done with libvirt?
To dump XML use
virsh dumpxml [id|name|uuid] > [xmlfile]
To reload it then use
virsh define [xmlfile]
Ok. That part I knew already. But does libvirt not also allow to convert the created xml configuration file to a XM configuration file? I.e. the type of config file that was traditionally used? At least in that I could define the pci delegation and start a virtual machine from it... I would just like to sort of "export" my current configuration from virt-manager.
Its not going to help much I'm afraid since we don't support PCI device delegation currently.
Thanks. Maybe I can get around it by simply not exporting back to xml but working with the xm config file. Cheers, Arik
