|
Objects in the libvirt API are configured using XML documents to allow for ease
|
|
of extension in future releases. Each XML document has an associated Relax-NG
|
|
schema that can be used to validate documents prior to usage.

Command line validation
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
The ``virt-xml-validate`` tool provides a simple command line for validating XML
|
|
documents prior to giving them to libvirt. It uses the locally installed RNG
|
|
schema documents. It will auto-detect which schema to use for validation based
|
|
on the name of the top level element in the input document. Thus it merely
|
|
requires the XML document filename to be passed on the command line
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
$ virt-xml-validate /path/to/XML/file
