Hi,

I think your looking for:

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html/virtualization_deployment_and_administration_guide/sect-domain_commands-creating_a_virtual_machine_xml_dump_configuration_file

After you have built the a VM in virt-manager say, with ith this XML
file you can recreate the same VM, modify if needed and create other
VMs etc.

Regards

Phil
