Libvirtd loads all the configs under /etc/libvirt into memory, so if you delete them, libvirtd will still know about them until you restart it. > By the way, I installed my libvirt under directory working.

If you are runing libvirtd as non-root then it uses $HOME/.libvirt If you built a custom libvirtd from source and run it as root, then it'll use $sysconfdir/libvirt (where $sysconfdir is the --sysconfdir value passed to the configure script) Regards, Daniel -- |: http://berrange.com -o- http://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: http://entangle-photo.org -o- http://live.gnome.org/gtk-vnc :| _______________________________________________ libvirt-users mailing list libvirt-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvirt-users
