I guess I was thinking that developers may like to know what API's are supported by each pool - kind of a "features" list of sorts. Using the backend naming scheme is/was kind of a cheat. I'm not against being more creative - ideas are welcome ;-). I think most important is perhaps knowing what volume operations a pool supports or at least the upload/download, wipe, and resize. Without any kind of extra data, the output is kind of boring: <capabilities> <pool> <type>dir</pool> </pool> <pool> <type>fs</pool> </pool> <pool> <type>netfs</pool> </pool> .... <pool> <type>zfs</pool> </pool> </capabilities> John -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
