libvirt users - Aug 2014 - Libvirt Java API to get CPU usage of VM (KVM)

Hi all libvirt-users,


Is there a counterpart on Java of the function virDomainGetCPUStats that is
based on C API? Because I am trying to create a program based on
java to get the CPU usage of a Guest/Domain/VM in KVM using the Libvirt 
Java API. 


Honestly, I am having a hard time in starting my program. I have no 
idea where to start. I mean, what functions do I need to get the CPU 
usage of the guest/domain in KVM? I know there are other options but I 
am avoiding in connecting to the VM through SSH and get the CPU usage. 
To make things easier to understand, I need to know how the Virtual 
Machine Manager in Linux is able to output a graph of the CPU usage of 
EACH VM. 
I really need help. I have no idea where to start. Any suggestions 
would be much appreciated. I'll try to post a screenshot of the graph 
later. 


regards,

Marco

No, not currently. I've prepared a patch some time ago which adds
support for that function, but it is based on changes not yet
committed to the official git repo.

I'm still working on it, but don't hold your breath.
