Upon further reflection and some memory jiggling... virsh -c storage:///system capabilities <capabilities> <pool> <enum name='type'> <value>dir</value> <value>fs</value> <value>netfs</value> <value>logical</value> <value>iscsi</value> <value>iscsi-direct</value> <value>scsi</value> <value>mpath</value> <value>disk</value> <value>rbd</value> <value>sheepdog</value> <value>gluster</value> <value>zfs</value> </enum> </pool> </capabilities> But yeah, without the -c storage:///system one won't see the results because 'npools == 0' when virCapabilitiesFormatStoragePoolXML is called from virCapabilitiesFormatXML unless it's the storage driver URI.
