Hi, My piece of code ( C langage) uses cgroups to retrieve counters related to cpu and memory usage related to KVM guests hosted by the host where this code runs. I noticed that depending on the O.S. running on the host , these counters are not found at the same location : CentOS 7 : ls /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuacct/machine.slice/machine-qemu\\x2drhel6.0.scope/vcpu0 cgroup.clone_children

Hi, I found an answer : Use virConnectOpenAuth() instead of virConnectOpenReadOnly().

Hi, As told in "Control Groups Resource Management" libvirt page : Legacy cgroups layout Prior to libvirt 1.0.5, the cgroups layout created by libvirt was different from that described above, and did not allow for administrator customization.
