The libvirt public API delegates its implementation to one or more internal
|
|
|
|
drivers, depending on the `connection URI <uri.html>`__ passed when initializing
|
|
|
|
the library. There is always a hypervisor driver active, and if the libvirt
|
|
|
|
daemon is available there will usually be a network and storage driver active.
