I can create vms using the vSphere API, I was interested if it's possible
to programmatically create and start (i.e. without calling external tools)
using libvirt only.

You can use the following virsh command:
vol-create-as -
I need to disk files to be created and allocated so I can start the vm -
the vm itself will be PXE booted.
I can programmatically create the domain however it fails to start because
the disk files are not there.
Thanks

Dear Paul,
Depending on how you want to create them, qemu-img tool might be what
you're looking for. It can create empty vmdk disk images: qemu-img
create -f vmdk ...
Cheers,
