libvirt users - Feb 2013 - Changing QoS on-the-fly

Hi all,
it's possible to change/add the QoS settings for a running domain?

I edited the domain definition with virsh but it seems to have no effect until I
shut down the domain.

libvirt  version 0.9.13
kvm-qemu version 1.2.0

Best,
 Davide.

You are correct that 'virsh edit' only affects the next boot of a guest;
to change parameters on the fly, you have to use hotplug commands.
Which particular QoS settings in the XML are you trying to change, so I
can point out which virsh command is the hotplug for that setting?  For
example, 'virsh memtune' can be used to hotplug in new values for the
<memtune> XML element.
