Unless --driver tap|file option was given to attach-disk, virsh would generate <disk type='block'> XML which might be fine for Xen but not for other hypervisors. This patch introduces a new option --sourcetype which can be used to explicitly set the type of disk source. The option accepts either "file" or "block" types.
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.
