When creating pools from dedicated disks, the existing pool-define-as and pool-create-as commands are a bit non-optimal. Ideally, a person would be able to specify all of the required options directly on the command line instead of having to edit the XML. At the moment, there is no way to specify the format type (ie gpt) so it gets included in the XML the pool is constructed with. Please find attached a simple (tested) patch to add an optional "--source-format 'type'" to virsh. This is patched against current git master and will apply cleanly. Also created a Red Hat BZ ticket for this (#597790) for tracking.
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.
