SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
========
|
||
|
|
||
|
``virt-qemu-qmp-proxy`` [*OPTION*]... *DOMAIN* *QMP-SOCKET-PATH*
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
===========
|
||
|
|
||
|
This tool provides a way to expose a QMP proxy server that communicates
|
||
|
with a QEMU guest managed by libvirt. This enables standard QMP client
|
||
|
tools to interact with libvirt managed guests.
|
||
|
|
||
|
**NOTE: use of this tool will result in the running QEMU guest being
|
||
|
marked as tainted.** It is strongly recommended that this tool *only be
|
||
|
used to send commands which query information* about the running guest.
|
||
|
If this tool is used to make changes to the state of the guest, this
|
||
|
may have negative interactions with the QEMU driver, resulting in an
|
||
|
inability to manage the guest operation thereafter, and in the worst
|
||
|
case **potentially lead to data loss or corruption**.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The ``virt-qemu-qmp-proxy`` program will listen on a UNIX socket for incoming
|
||
|
client connections, and run the QMP protocol over the connection. Any
|
||
|
commands received will be sent to the running libvirt guest, and replies
|
||
|
sent back.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The ``virt-qemu-qmp-proxy`` program may be interrupted (eg Ctrl-C) when it
|
||
|
is no longer required. The libvirt QEMU guest will continue running.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
