Re: [libvirt-users] monitor option in libvirt ?

because I wold like to do this: 1) start qemu-kvm and redirect the monitor to a named pipe called let's say my.pipe 2) write into the named pipe with a script when I want to take a snapshot, somthing like: echo "savevm mysnapshot">my.pipe bascally I need to be able to access the monitor to issue a savevm command because I want to take a snapshot of my qcow2 images.
