Virsh shouldn't check for driver support but rather let the backend handled this. After removing the check, I can successfully attach file-based images to a qemu VM with attach-disk. % virsh attach-disk vm2 /images/test02.img vdc --driver qemu --type disk --subdriver raw Disk attached successfully This command generates the following XML: <disk type='block' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/> <source dev='/images/test02.img'/> <target dev='vdc' bus='virtio'/> <alias name='virtio-disk2'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x09' function='0x0'/> </disk> Signed-off-by: Ryan Harper <ryanh@us.ibm.com>
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
