Hi Pietrop. I’ve been fiddling with dumping xml configs from a running Xen PV guest. Is this any help at all? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5/html/Virtualization/chap-Virtualization-Managing_guests_with_virsh.html Creating a virtual machine XML dump (configuration file) Output a guest's XML configuration file with virsh: # virsh dumpxml {domain-id, domain-name or domain-uuid} This command outputs the guest's XML configuration file to standard out (stdout). You can save the data by piping the output to a file. An example of piping the output to a file called guest.xml: # virsh dumpxml GuestID > guest.xml This file guest.xml can recreate the guest (see Editing a guest's configuration file). You can edit this XML configuration file to configure additional devices or to deploy additional guests. See Section 34.1, “Using XML configuration files with virsh” for more information on modifying files created with virsh dumpxml. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kind Regards, Keith Roberts _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xen.org/xen-users
