I'm a Libvirt newbie and I'd really appreciate it if
someone could answer my doubts. I'm using Libvirt's Java API.
My doubts:
1.Currently, I'm able to create a VM on Ubuntu 11.04 using Libvirt
functions domainCreateLinux() and domainDefineXML(). Apart fromt
the boolean return status of these operations and running the
virsh list command, is there any way to SSH in (login) to the
newly created VMs and run applications on them? I tried running
virsh console but nothing comes up. Also I tried fixing the XML
file to accommodate the console operation(link)
but that was unsuccessful too.
The route command on the host will show the newly added routes for
the VM. Also, tail your syslog file & you will see messages
about every 15 min. from dnsmasq w/ the IP adder. of the VM.
Hand editing the XML file is not recommended, usually won't work,
try the 'virsh edit' command, that will make sure that the edited
stuff gets saved properly & gets communicated to the VM's.
2. If yes, how can I get the IP of the VM created?
3. Is there any function to create image files(in any format qcow
or qcow2) using Libvirt API? Right now, I'm using a shell script
which creates the image from it's iso.
Thanks in advance
P Ramesh
