While trying to compare netfs against my new gluster pool, I discovered two things: virt-xml-validate chokes on valid xml produced by 'virsh pool-dumpxml' [yet another reason that ALL patches that add new xml should be adding corresponding tests] When using glusterfs FUSE mounts, you cannot access a subdirectory of a gluster volume. The recommended workaround in the gluster community is to mount the volume to an intermediate location, then bind-mount the desired subdirectory to the final location. Maybe we should teach libvirt to do bind-mounting, but for now I chose to just document the limitation. * docs/storage.html.in: Improve documentation. * docs/schemas/storagepool.rng (sourcefmtnetfs): Allow all formats, and drop redundant info-vendor. * tests/storagepoolxml2xmltest.c (mymain): New test. * tests/storagepoolxml2xmlin/pool-netfs-gluster.xml: New file. * tests/storagepoolxml2xmlout/pool-netfs-gluster.xml: Likewise.

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.
