Let's say, that you have a domain and there is this device: <disk type='dir' device='cdrom'> <driver name='qemu'/> <source dir='/tmp/tmp-cdrom'/> <target dev='sdc' bus='sata'/> <readonly/> <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='2'/> </disk> Your patch would simply ignore the dir source and assumed that there is no media inserted and create a new definition. It would be regression from current behavior. It doesn't meter whether the new cdrom would be block or file, you need to check the existing device and consider all possible source types to detect whether there is a media inserted or not. -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
