Hi all,
it's possible to change/add the QoS settings for a running domain?
I edited the domain definition with virsh but it seems to have no effect until I shut down
the domain.
libvirt version 0.9.13
kvm-qemu version 1.2.0
Best,
Davide.

You are correct that 'virsh edit' only affects the next boot of a guest;
to change parameters on the fly, you have to use hotplug commands.
Which particular QoS settings in the XML are you trying to change, so I
can point out which virsh command is the hotplug for that setting? For
example, 'virsh memtune' can be used to hotplug in new values for the
<memtune> XML element.

bandwidth, inbound and outbound
Thanks!

I haven't gone through the code to tell for sure, but for now you can
only set the network part of QoS (via virsh net-update) while the
domain's interface is not supported yet. However, patches are welcome :)

I've just found this:
domiftune domain interface-device [[--config] [--live] | [--current]] [--inbound
average,peak,burst] [--outbound average,peak,burst]
Set or query the domain's network interface's bandwidth parameters.
interface-device can be the interface's target name (<target
dev='name'/>), or the MAC address.
If no --inbound or --outbound is specified, this command will query and show the bandwidth
settings. Otherwise, it will set the inbound or outbound bandwidth. average,peak,burst is
the same as in command attach-interface.
If --live is specified, affect a running guest. If --config is specified, affect the next
boot of a persistent guest. If --current is specified, affect the current guest state.
Both --live and --current flags may be given, but --current is exclusive. If no flag is
specified, behavior is different depending on hypervisor.
I'm gonna try it.
I thought the edit command was to perform on-the-fly editing of VMs
I should have read the manual :)
