Could anyone please list out the steps required to run the command $virsh qemu-agent-command Steps that I followed: 1. Clone the latest source code of libvirt 2. Create a vm of f18 (source:liveCD) 3. Edit f18 domain xml and add this: <channel type='unix'> <source mode='bind' path='/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/f16x86_64.agent'/> <target type='virtio' name='org.qemu.guest_agent.0'/> </channel> 4. On host: #./tools/virsh start f18 5. On guest: #yum install qemu-guest-agent -y 6. On host: # ./tools/virsh qemu-agent-command f18 '{"execute":"guest-network-get-interfaces"}' Expected Response: {"return":[{"name":"lo","ip- addresses":[{"ip-address-type":"ipv4","ip-address":"127.0.0.1","prefix":8},{"ip-address-type":"ipv6","ip-address":"::1","prefix":128}],"hardware-address":"00:00:00:00:00:00"},{"name":"eth0","ip-addresses":[{"ip-address-type":"ipv4","ip-address":"192.168.122.62","prefix":24},{"ip-address-type":"ipv6","ip-address":"fe80::5054:ff:fe14:9998","prefix":64}],"hardware-address":"52:54:00:14:99:98"}]} Actual result: (null) Where am I going wrong? -- Nehal J.
