However, you  _can_ teach libvirt about certain guests started directly
by qemu; the 'virsh qemu-attach' command can attach to guests that were
properly started with a socket monitor.

Note that these files are to be treated as read-only.  If you want to
modify the guest, you must not edit these files, but instead should use
commands like 'virsh edit' for the persistent definition, and hotplug
actions like 'virsh add-device' for the live definition.
