Hi, Installed RHEL 5.5 on AMD Opteron. [root@wlng-ppcore-nd3 ~]# uname -a Linux wlng-ppcore-nd3 2.6.18-194.el5 #1 SMP Tue Mar 16 21:52:39 EDT 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux [root@wlng-ppcore-nd3 ~]# virsh version Compiled against library: libvir 0.6.3 Using library: libvir 0.6.3 Using API: QEMU 0.6.3 Running hypervisor: QEMU 0.9.1 This is the default version of virsh using libvirt 0.6.3. Downloaded libvirt 0.8.1, configured it as follows: $ configure $ make $ make install What should be done so that virsh uses the latest 0.8.1 libvirtd binary, how to completely stop 0.6.3? I want to execute a program using virDomainMemoryStats which is available only in latest libvirtd. Thanks, Avdhoot
