Hi experts

I want to write a script to determine one domain named "vm1" is defined or not, if defined, I will undefine it.

The question is how could I know it define or not ?

either you can 'virsh list --persistent --all | grep $vm' or you can try 'virsh undefine $vm' which will throw an error if there's no such domain as $vm. Michal
