Hi,
Thanks to your advice, I was able to make it work using nokogiri.
I am now trying to attach new devices (shared folders) via my custom function:
=====
def attach_device(uuid , device)
puts "CAlled with uuid #{uuid}"
client.lookup_domain_by_uuid(uuid).update_device(device.to_s, 0)
end
=====
"device.to_s" returns a correct xml for <filesystem>. I then have the
following error:
>CAlled with uuid 8cc185ef-4bf1-4b78-9caa-cd14c70cd1b3
>/home/teto/fog/lib/fog/libvirt/requests/compute/attach_device.rb:38:in `update_device': Call to virDomainUpdateDeviceFlags failed: >Operation not supported: persistent update of device 'filesystem' is not supported (Libvirt::Error)
Does that mean I need to undefine my domain and then recreate it if I
want to keep the update persistent ?
Regards
Matt
