Hi, i have two machines with libvirt installed. I want to move a storage volume from the 1st machine to 2nd machine with code.

I'm thinking of reading a storage volume into a byte array/stream then uploading through my own/custom handler (written in go) to the 2nd machine's custom handler which will then be writing the byte stream to libvirt storage volume.

Is there a libvirt function to read storage volume into byte stream?
