After these three patches, virt-inspector is just a shell around the core API, left doing command line parsing.

This requires changing the generator so it can handle passing optional arguments all thr way through to the daemon, changing the protocol (see previous patch set), and implementing the new mkfs-opts call. At the moment there is just an optional blocksize argument, thus mimicking what you can already do with 'mkfs-b'. But this change will allow us in future to encode much of the rest of

Patches 1-6 are general code quality improvements. Note that Guido previously asked us for the ability to build libguestfs without building the appliance. Patches 7-10 are specific to Mac OS X, but shouldn't break the build for existing platforms.

This is a set of bugfixes and enhancements to allow virt-resize to really expand Linux and Windows guests. Previously there were lots of bugs. This version has been tested on a variety of guests successfully. Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones libguestfs lets you edit virtual machines.

This patch series starts by tidying up the code for the virt-cat, virt-df, virt-edit, etc tools, moving them into a single directory and making the build system much simpler as a consequence. Then we add two new tools, virt-tar (a general purpose archive and upload tool) and virt-ls (for listing directories). No new functionality is enabled by these tools -- that is to say, you can do everything

The more I look at this patch, the less I like it. I would summarise why I think it's wrong here, but it's better if you look at the message I posted on the gnulib mailing list here first: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2009-11/msg00434.html Directly accessing errno on Windows is wrong: you won't see the true reasons for an error by doing that. However depending on

This is the third version of the FUSE bindings for libguestfs. Still, read and write calls don't work, but you can now navigate through the filesystem hierarchy efficiently. Rich. .gitignore | 3 + HACKING | 3 + Makefile.am | 5 + README | 2 + TODO | 37 +-- bindtests | 13 + bootstrap | 2 +

libguestfs is a library and a set of tools for reading, writing, managing, inspecting, rescuing and resizing disk images and offline and live virtual machines. I'm pleased to announce the release of libguestfs 1.12, the next stable branch of libguestfs. There are many changes and new features in this release: please see the notes below. You can get source from the website:

I think there's some demand internally for a version of libguestfs where the appliance part actually runs on Windows. So I'm creating this thread to discuss the issue. The reason to want a Windows appliance at all is twofold: (1) better support for NTFS filesystems and Windows-native filesystem features (attributes, volume management etc), and (2) so we can run Windows CMD.EXE commands

Thank you Rich, I checked the version and found that it printed an old 1.17.17 version which was deployed before. But I remembered i did check the version in guestfish shell and it said 1.17.40 before that?then i totally ignored the fact i had another version involved. I`ve changed the LD_LIBRARY_PATH and the "undefined symbol" error disappeared.But some "inspection API not

Hi Richard, Thanks for your response, We have followed the steps mentioned in https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2015-November/msg00015.html Now we are able to connect the V2V Conversion Server from Physical server after booting from livecd. Once ssh connection established, "Start Conversion" opens up another UI which has necessary info. of hardware (eg. CPU, RAM, HDD

This is the previously controversial 1/3 patch, split into two parts. The first patch contains these changes from last time: - set errno = 0 before readdir, and check for errors after - check for other errors from the chdir call which weren't ENOTDIR - the documentation is clarified about when you might use this function - more comprehensive tests, including the corner cases Matt

the 'hivex' had been installed actually, hivex.x86_64 0:1.2.4-3.el6 and perl-hivex.x86_64 0:1.2.4-3.el6, however it just could not be detected.Maybe i should compile one rather than just yum. I`m not familiar with hivex,as far as i know, it can be used to modify windows registry, but why the inspection API had been binded with hivex when we might use inspection api solely with linux os
