Yeah, in fact,
you run 'import libvirt' in interactive python, it will
import the above libvirt.py module.
method createXML used for virStorageVolCreateXML is missing when i
use
help(libvirt) and scroll down to the class virStorageVol, however the
method is listed in libvirt.py as:
The virStorageVolCreateXML() is a libvirt C API
not python API, you may
find its symbol link in libvirtmod.so:
# nm -A -D /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/libvirtmod.so |grep
virStorageVolCreateXML
/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/libvirtmod.so:00000000000265c0 T
libvirt_virStorageVolCreateXML
/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/libvirtmod.so:00000000000231d0 T
libvirt_virStorageVolCreateXMLFrom
/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/libvirtmod.so: U
virStorageVolCreateXML
/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/libvirtmod.so: U
virStorageVolCreateXMLFrom
In addition, you may find the following codes in
/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/libvirt.py,
the libvirtmod.so shared library is imported by libvirt.py:
<snip>
try:
import libvirtmod
except ImportError, lib_e:
try:
import cygvirtmod as libvirtmod
except ImportError, cyg_e:
if str(cyg_e).count("No module named"):
raise lib_e
</snip>
def createXML(self, xmldesc, flags):
"""Create a storage volume within a pool based
on an XML description. Not all pools support
creation of volumes """
ret = libvirtmod.virStorageVolCreateXML(self._o, xmldesc, flags)
if ret is None:raise libvirtError('virStorageVolCreateXML()
failed', pool=self)
__tmp = virStorageVol(self, _obj=ret)
return __tmp

You will find "listStoragePools" in class "virConnect",
and "listVolumes" in class "virStoragePool".
