I am not sure what you mean with 'new modular'. I am still on el7 going to el9
this year. I am doing live migrations just with these.
libvirtd.service enabled
'libvirtd' was separated into specific sub-daemons for specific object
or hypervisor:
- hypervisor drivers:
- virtqemud - for managing qemu machines
- virtlxcd - for lxc
- ... for all other hypervisor drivers...
- network driver
- virtnetworkd
- storage driver
- virtstoraged
- secret driver
- virtsecretd
etc...
If you are running modular daemons you then don't use 'libvirtd' at all,
but rather the client library communicates with the appropriate daemon
based on the object type.
