Hi, I need a small help. I am working on a project where i have to monitor network activity of a VM running on KVM. I am interested in how much data is going into the VM and how much data is coming out of the VM. I checked on the net and found out virsh domifstat is the way to go about it. 1. But looks like these stats also include bytes related to control traffic for the VM. Is there a way to exclude that? I just want the size of actual data transfers. 2. Is there a way by which i can report the data transfer of VM with the outside world (outside hypervi...

...s directly from the TAP > devices on the host ? I am using bridging, but you are correct.

I guess I will have to find something that makes the domifstat data available via an snmp interface. Do you know of such a tool? Thanks, Neil -- Neil Aggarwal,...

...erface> Compared to the others which have: <interface type='network'> <mac address='54:52:d1:32:0a:a1'/> <source network='local'/> <target dev='vnet13'/> </interface> This is problematic as I wanted to use domifstat on the domains. Using the packet counts shown via ifconfig on the host, I was able to determine what the vnet interface should be, but passing that to domifstat doesn't work: $ virsh domifstat maki221 vnet13 Connecting to uri: qemu:///system error: Failed to get interface stats guest19 vnet13...

Hi folks, is it possible to monitor and gather statistics in realtime (CPU, memory, HDD, network, ... - something like dstat) of guest systems with libvirt through console from host system (KVM based)? If yes, do those guests need to be created through libvirt? Thanks for your help and time.
