Browse Source 
In the documentation we are mixing libvirt-guest and
libvirt_guest module name. The correct name is the latter.

records. Therefore this is dependent on hostname provided by guests. Thing
is, not all the guests out there provide one in DHCP transactions, or not
every sysadmin out there believes all the guests. Hence libvirt implements
second method in <code>libvirt-guest</code> module which does libvirt guest
second method in <code>libvirt_guest</code> module which does libvirt guest
name to IP address translation (regardless of hostname set in the guest).

To enable either of the modules put their name into the
<code>nsswitch.conf</code> file. For instance, to enable
<code>libvirt-guest</code> module:
<code>libvirt_guest</code> module:
</p>
<pre>
$ cat /etc/nsswitch.conf
# /etc/nsswitch.conf:
hosts: files libvirt-guest dns
hosts: files libvirt_guest dns
# ...
</pre>
<p>Or users can enable both at the same time:</p>
<pre>
$ cat /etc/nsswitch.conf
# /etc/nsswitch.conf:
hosts: files libvirt libvirt-guest dns
hosts: files libvirt libvirt_guest dns
# ...
</pre>
<p>
This configuration will mean that if hostname is not found by the
<code>libvirt</code> module (e.g. because a guest did not sent hostname
during DHCP transaction), the <code>libvirt-guest</code> module is
during DHCP transaction), the <code>libvirt_guest</code> module is
consulted (and if the hostname matches libvirt guest name it will be
resolved).

If there's no record for either of the aforementioned commands, it's
very likely that NSS module won't find anything and vice versa.
As of <code>v3.0.0</code> libvirt provides <code>libvirt-guest</code> NSS
As of <code>v3.0.0</code> libvirt provides <code>libvirt_guest</code> NSS
module that doesn't have this limitation. However, the statement is still
true for the <code>libvirt</code> NSS module.
