[libvirt] 'starting' a domain using Python libvirt..
I'm trying to figure out how to start a domain .. and I can't figure out what method to use.. When I do this:
dir(conn.lookupByName('my-vm-1'))
I get these options: ['ID', 'OSType', 'UUID', 'UUIDString', 'XMLDesc', '__del__', '__doc__', '__init__', '__module__', '_conn', '_o', 'attachDevice', 'autostart', 'blockStats', 'connect', 'coreDump', 'create', 'destroy', 'detachDevice', 'info', 'interfaceStats', 'maxMemory', 'maxVcpus', 'migrate', 'name', 'pinVcpu', 'reboot', 'resume', 'save', 'setAutostart', 'setMaxMemory', 'setMemory', 'setVcpus', 'shutdown', 'suspend', 'undefine'] I don't see a method to start a domain up.. What am I missing here? thanks!

You want the create() method which python equiv of virDomainCreate() http://libvirt.org/html/libvirt-libvirt.html#virDomainCreate Daniel -- |: Red Hat, Engineering, London -o- http://people.redhat.com/berrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org -o- http://ovirt.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: GnuPG: 7D3B9505 -o- F3C9 553F A1DA 4AC2 5648 23C1 B3DF F742 7D3B 9505 :|
