Michael Weiser 51d84c54cb connection: Avoid repeated default pool creation attempts
During startup virtinst.StoragePool.build_default_pool() tries to
determine whether the default storage pool already exists. Because
events have not yet been processed, the list of existing storage pools
is still empty. Therefore it seems as if it does not exist yet and
build_default_pool() falls back to creating it which causes an error
message from libvirtd in the system log:

libvirtd: operation failed: pool 'default' already exists with uuid.

Move default pool creation after event processing to avoid these
redundant creation attempts.

Virtual Machine Manager

virt-manager is a graphical tool for managing virtual machines via libvirt. Most usage is with QEMU/KVM virtual machines, but Xen and libvirt LXC containers are well supported. Common operations for any libvirt driver should work.

Several command line tools are also provided:

  • virt-install: Create new libvirt virtual machines
  • virt-clone: Duplicate existing libvirt virtual machines
  • virt-xml: Edit existing libvirt virtual machines/manipulate libvirt XML
  • virt-convert: Convert VMX or OVF configs to libvirt virtual machines

For dependency info and installation instructions, see the INSTALL.md file. If you just want to quickly test the code from a git checkout, you can launch any of the commands like:

./virt-manager --debug ...
