- Network filtering
- Network ports
- Storage
- Storage encryption
- Capabilities
- Domain capabilities
- Storage Pool capabilities
- Node devices
- Secrets
- Snapshots

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
