Re: [libvirt-users] host to VM serial device configuration

Hi, I'm trying to get a virtual serial device up and running between my host and virtual machine with a device name on the host. I'm using libvirt 0.8.3 and qemu 0.13.0. The challenge that I'm running into is that I'm able to get a serial device, but I cannot fix it to a pre-defined device name. For example, I'm using the following in my VM's xml file: <serial type='pty'> <source path='/dev/pts/19' /> <target port='0' /> </serial> As I said this works, but it doesn't set the host side to /dev/pts/19. Is there any way to do this?
