You may be better served by setting up actions based on network messages sent by the guest, the way you would with one bare-metal machine reporting to another. Also, this sounds more like something that a guest agent would have to coordinate at a higher level than libvirt, as there is nothing inherent in running qemu that tells libvirt what the guest inside the qemu process is doing. virt-dmesg' ability to peek at guest memory is about the best you will be able to do through libvirt. -- Eric Blake eblake(a)redhat.com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
