Re: [libvirt-users] Can you get page dirtying information on non-migrating VMs?

Hello everyone,
I've been looking through the libvirt API to get information about
memory page dirtying of VMs. I need these to aid decisions on which VM
to migrate.
The only thing I found is
virDomainGetJobStats()
with
VIR_DOMAIN_JOB_MEMORY_DIRTY_RATE
but that only works when a migration is already running.
Is there a way to get information on VMs which are not already migrating?
No, IIUC, page dirtying is only enbled by QEMU while migrating because it
has non-neglible performance impact on the guest.

Daniel
