Since libvirt supports many different kinds of virtualization
(often referred to as "drivers" or "hypervisors"), we need a
way to be able to specify which driver a connection refers to.
Additionally we may want to refer to a driver on a remote
machine over the network.

To use QEMU support in libvirt you must be running the

< code > libvirtd< / code > daemon (named < code > libvirt_qemud< / code >
in releases prior to 0.3.0). The purpose of this
2007-06-19 16:07:58 +00:00

Libvirt allows you to pass a < code > NULL< / code > pointer to
< code > virConnectOpen*< / code > . Empty string (< code > ""< / code > ) acts in
the same way. Traditionally this has meant
< q > connect to the local Xen hypervisor< / q > . However in future this

The theory is that if, for example, Xen is unavailable but the
machine is running an OpenVZ kernel, then we should not try to
connect to the Xen hypervisor since that is obviously the wrong
thing to do.

In any case applications linked to libvirt can continue to pass
< code > NULL< / code > as a default choice, but should always allow the
user to override the URI, either by constructing one or by allowing
the user to type a URI in directly (if that is appropriate). If your
application wishes to connect specifically to a Xen hypervisor, then
for future proofing it should choose a full < a href = "#URI_xen" > < code > xen:///< / code > URI< / a > .

Another legacy URI is to specify name as the string
< code > "xen"< / code > . This will continue to refer to the Xen
hypervisor. However you should prefer a full < a href = "#URI_xen" > < code > xen:///< / code > URI< / a > in all future code.

Libvirt continues to support connections to a separately running Xen
proxy daemon. This provides a way to allow non-root users to make a
safe (read-only) subset of queries to the hypervisor.

There is no specific "Xen proxy" URI. However if a Xen URI of any of
the ordinary or legacy forms is used (eg. < code > NULL< / code > ,
< code > ""< / code > , < code > "xen"< / code > , ...) which fails, < i > and< / i > the
user is not root, < i > and< / i > the Xen proxy socket can be connected to
(< code > /tmp/libvirt_proxy_conn< / code > ), then libvirt will use a proxy
connection.
