OK, try to look at xpath version with some enhancements: http://www.salstar.sk/pub/salpack/usr/sbin/virsh-xpath It's still beta quality, but functional. Example options: # Query boot options: --guest NAME --query //os/boot # Add an element with attributes: --guest NAME //os --add bios --attr useserial=yes # Update attribute of an element: --guest NAME //devices/disk/driver --update --attr cache=none # Remove attributes: --guest NAME //disk/driver --remove cache --remove type # Delete element: --guest NAME '//os/boot[@dev="hd"]' --delete SAL _______________________________________________ virt mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/virt
