Hi! I'm new to libvirt and face problems connecting to an iSCSI target. What I intend to do is to connect libvirt (I tried virt-manager and virsh) to an iSCSI target and then boot from the LUNs which contain the VMs. I followed the documentation¹ but got stuck at section 12.1.5.4.3. 1) virsh pool-define-as \ --name foo \ --type iscsi

Hey, Is there a Schema of creating a VM (Domain)? Something like: Create Storagepool Init Storagepool Maxi

I suppose I have to dig into http://wiki.libvirt.org a little deeper to get some understanding of the finer technical aspects of configuring this, but what I'm looking for is not really there.

...g pool it should base LVs and snapshots from. When I look at the example here: http://libvirt.org/storage.html#StorageBackendLogical I don't see anything particular which tells me it supports building off a thin-provisioning pool if I specify such by name. Checking here: http://libvirt.org/formatstorage.html#StoragePool I again don't see anything specific about logical thick vs thin provisioning. I would expect to see *something*, as there are performance consequences when making such choices, so I'm again not sure libvirt recognizes a difference. So is this something that libvirt can do...

Greetings All, I was running libvirt-0.9.10 on CentOS 6.3 and it was working perfectly until yesterday when I decided to update to 6.4, which upgraded libvirt-0.9.10 to libvirt-0.10.2. I have a storage pool of type volume group, upon upgrading to libvirt-0.10.2, the disk image gets created as a snapshot on the volume group not as a regular volume. Now every time I create a vm using
