dear community, no matter the guest vm instance is raw or qcow2 format, when run "virsh dumpxml <guest-name>", the error are all the same, shown below:
virsh dumpxml ttylinux.img error: failed to get domain 'ttylinux.img' error: Domain not found: no domain with matching name 'ttylinux.img' virsh dumpxml cloud.qcow2 error: failed to get domain 'cloud.qcow2' error: Domain not found: no domain with matching name 'cloud.qcow2' it is much appreciated if you can help to identify the problems. thanks, david su On Tue, Nov 20, 2012 at 6:40 AM, Richard W.M.
