It is a subtle issue crossing several layers. libvirt internally caches virDomainPtr instances based on name. You created a object in the perl layer '$dom' with the name, and then you create a new instance with the same name, but assign to a diferent perl object '$newdom'. This means that the old virDomainPtr associated with $dom still exists. If you explicitly set '$dom = undef' before creating the second domain you should release the old handle & make it all work as expected
thanks for the explanation .. my script now works as expected. BTW, additional test cases for libvirt-TCK should be send as patches to this list, correct? -- Best regards, Gerhard Stenzel, ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- IBM Deutschland Research & Development GmbH Vorsitzender des Aufsichtsrats: Martin Jetter Geschäftsführung: Dirk Wittkopp Sitz der Gesellschaft: Böblingen Registergericht: Amtsgericht Stuttgart, HRB 243294
