# python
import libvirt help(libvirt)
You will find "listStoragePools" in class "virConnect", and "listVolumes" in class "virStoragePool". Regards, Osier
there is a disconnect between the methods that help(libvirt) shows for class virStorageVol and the method listed in /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/libvirt.py for the same class. method createXML used for virStorageVolCreateXML is missing when i use help(libvirt) and scroll down to the class virStorageVol, however the method is listed in libvirt.py as: def createXML(self, xmldesc, flags): """Create a storage volume within a pool based on an XML description. Not all pools support creation of volumes """ ret = libvirtmod.virStorageVolCreateXML(self._o, xmldesc, flags) if ret is None:raise libvirtError('virStorageVolCreateXML() failed', pool=self) __tmp = virStorageVol(self, _obj=ret) return __tmp ________________________________ From: Osier Yang <jyang@redhat.com> To: Syed A.

Yeah, in fact, you run 'import libvirt' in interactive python, it will import the above libvirt.py module. method createXML used for virStorageVolCreateXML is missing when i use help(libvirt) and scroll down to the class virStorageVol, however the method is listed in libvirt.py as: The virStorageVolCreateXML() is a libvirt C API not python API, you may find its symbol link in libvirtmod.so:
# nm -A -D /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/libvirtmod.so |grep virStorageVolCreateXML /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/libvirtmod.so:00000000000265c0 T libvirt_virStorageVolCreateXML /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/libvirtmod.so:00000000000231d0 T libvirt_virStorageVolCreateXMLFrom /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/libvirtmod.so: U virStorageVolCreateXML /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/libvirtmod.so: U virStorageVolCreateXMLFrom In addition, you may find the following codes in /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/libvirt.py, the libvirtmod.so shared library is imported by libvirt.py: <snip> try: import libvirtmod except ImportError, lib_e: try: import cygvirtmod as libvirtmod except ImportError, cyg_e: if str(cyg_e).count("No module named"): raise lib_e </snip>
def createXML(self, xmldesc, flags): """Create a storage volume within a pool based on an XML description. Not all pools support creation of volumes """ ret = libvirtmod.virStorageVolCreateXML(self._o, xmldesc, flags) if ret is None:raise libvirtError('virStorageVolCreateXML() failed', pool=self) __tmp = virStorageVol(self, _obj=ret) return __tmp
