# Authentication.
#
# - none: do not perform auth checks. If you can connect to the
# socket you are allowed. This is suitable if there are
# restrictions on connecting to the socket (eg, UNIX
# socket permissions), or if there is a lower layer in
# the network providing auth (eg, TLS/x509 certificates)
#
# - sasl: use SASL infrastructure. The actual auth scheme is then
# controlled from /etc/sasl2/libvirt.conf. For the TCP
# socket only GSSAPI & DIGEST-MD5 mechanisms will be used.
# For non-TCP or TLS sockets, any scheme is allowed.
#
2007-12-05 18:21:27 +00:00
# - polkit: use PolicyKit to authenticate. This is only suitable
# for use on the UNIX sockets. The default policy will
# require a user to supply their own password to gain
# full read/write access (aka sudo like), while anyone
# is allowed read/only access.

# Logging controls
#
# Logging level: 4 errors, 3 warnings, 2 information, 1 debug
# basically 1 will log everything possible
# Note: Journald may employ rate limiting of the messages logged
# and thus lock up the libvirt daemon. To use the debug level with
# journald you have to specify it explicitly in 'log_outputs', otherwise
# only information level messages will be logged.
#log_level = 3
# Logging filters:
# A filter allows to select a different logging level for a given category
# of logs
# The format for a filter is one of:
# x:name
# x:+name
# where name is a string which is matched against the category
# given in the VIR_LOG_INIT() at the top of each libvirt source
# file, e.g., "remote", "qemu", or "util.json" (the name in the
# filter can be a substring of the full category name, in order
# to match multiple similar categories), the optional "+" prefix
# tells libvirt to log stack trace for each message matching
# name, and x is the minimal level where matching messages should
# be logged:
# 1: DEBUG
# 2: INFO
# 3: WARNING
# 4: ERROR
#
# Multiple filters can be defined in a single @filters, they just need to be
# separated by spaces.
#
# e.g. to only get warning or errors from the remote layer and only errors
# from the event layer:
#log_filters="3:remote 4:event"
# Logging outputs:
# An output is one of the places to save logging information
# The format for an output can be:
# x:stderr
# output goes to stderr
# x:syslog:name
# use syslog for the output and use the given name as the ident
# x:file:file_path
# output to a file, with the given filepath
# x:journald
# output to journald logging system
# In all case the x prefix is the minimal level, acting as a filter
# 1: DEBUG
# 2: INFO
# 3: WARNING
# 4: ERROR
#
# Multiple outputs can be defined, they just need to be separated by spaces.
# e.g. to log all warnings and errors to syslog under the libvirtd ident:
#log_outputs="3:syslog:libvirtd"
#
# Log debug buffer size:
#
# This configuration option is no longer used, since the global
# log buffer functionality has been removed. Please configure

# temporary UUID will be generated.

# Keepalive protocol:
# This allows libvirtd to detect broken client connections or even
# dead clients. A keepalive message is sent to a client after
# keepalive_interval seconds of inactivity to check if the client is
# still responding; keepalive_count is a maximum number of keepalive
# messages that are allowed to be sent to the client without getting
# any response before the connection is considered broken. In other
# words, the connection is automatically closed approximately after
# keepalive_interval * (keepalive_count + 1) seconds since the last
# message received from the client. If keepalive_interval is set to
# -1, libvirtd will never send keepalive requests; however clients
# can still send them and the daemon will send responses. When
# keepalive_count is set to 0, connections will be automatically
# closed after keepalive_interval seconds of inactivity without
# sending any keepalive messages.
#
#keepalive_interval = 5
