libvirt users - Nov 2012 - add disk problems for domain

hi,all

I use Java api `domain.attachDeviceFlags(xml, 0);` to add a disk for
domain. the xml file like this:

 <disk type='file' device='disk'>
      <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
      <source file='/dev/sp1353486595267/v1353488096262'/>
      <target dev='vdb' bus='virtio'/>
    </disk>

then I use  command `virsh detach-disk $domain vdb` to remove the disk.

what  I said above have no any errors.but the problem is when I restart
this vm ,the  disk still exist,because I see it from the command `virsh
dumpxml $domain` ,how to remove the disk from this domain persistently.

thanks in advance.

Use the flags argument.  By passing '0' (aka VIR_DOMAIN_AFFECT_CURRENT
in the C API counterpart), you are explicitly requesting that only the
current configuration be modified (for a running domain, that means you
are doing a one-time hotplug, but not to remember it for the next boot).
 If you want to simultaneously hotplug _and_ affect the next boot, you
need to instead pass whatever the Java binding is for the underlying
flags VIR_DOMAIN_AFFECT_LIVE|VIR_DOMAIN_AFFECT_CONFIG of the C API
(sorry, I don't know the Java binding well enough to know what that
binding is).
