libvirt users - Nov 2013 - UTS namespace

Hello,

I am trying to set up UTS name space on centos 6.4 LXC container.
one method is that we set the host name in /etc/sysconfig/network.
hostname=test1
Is there any way so that i can set the hostname in libvirt xml while
creating a container?

I know using lxc-tools we can set hostname while creating by 2 ways
- first while creating container using lxc-create -u test1
- Second by specifying lxc.utsname=test1 in config file

Thanks

Libvirt XML does not provide a way to set the hostname. At this
time, it is left upto the services running inside the container
to decide upon.
