[PATCH 04/11] virsh: Fix man page argument ordering for vol-upload command

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The proper command order is 'virsh vol-upload volume file pool'. While
making the modification clean up the description a bit too in order
to help clarify under what circumstances the volume could be found
if the pool name was not provided.
