Hello,

while trying to reproduce a performance problem I had to fake 95 hosts with 300 
VMs. My idea was to setup 95 users with each one running a session libvirtd. 
When adding them to our management system I had was troubled with finding the 
right libvirt URI, as the default session UNIX socket is in the "abstract ns", 
which has no file system representation. I solved that by explicitly starting 
the session libvirtds with a custom config only specifying a physical socket 
path:
  for ((h=0;h<95;h+=1));do su -c "/usr/sbin/libvirtd -f <(echo 
"unix_sock_dir=\"/home/host$h/.libvirt\"") -d" "host$h";done

1. is there a way to specify an libvirt URI using the abstract ns?
2. Does anybody know another/better way to simulate many hosts with many VMs?

Thanks in advance.

Philipp
PS: libvirt-0.9.12
