Hello,
Does anyone know where full documentation for virsh can be found?
The best that I have found on the web is this one: http://qemu-buch.de/de/index.php/QEMU-KVM-Buch/_Anhang/_libvirt#virt-install It is in german, but they have an auto-translate link. Check out if it's any good for you. cheers Mathias Or if
the there are any plans to update the man page?
The man page lists far fewer commands than virsh lists from its interactive mode when you type help.
I noticed this when I was trying to figure out the difference between pool-destroy, and pool-delete. The help entries in the virsh shell are not very informative: virsh # help pool-destroy NAME pool-destroy - destroy a pool
SYNOPSIS pool-destroy <pool>
DESCRIPTION Destroy a given pool.
OPTIONS <pool> pool name or uuid
virsh # help pool-delete NAME pool-delete - delete a pool
SYNOPSIS pool-delete <pool>
DESCRIPTION Delete a given pool.
OPTIONS <pool> pool name or uuid
... unless you already know how virsh defines delete vs destroy.
(anyone care to explain it to me?)
The word pool does not occur in the virsh man page for Ubuntu Karmic release at least.
Thanks for the great list!
