NAME
Sys::Virt::Domain - Represent & manage a libvirt guest domain
DESCRIPTION
The Sys::Virt::Domain
module represents a guest domain managed by the virtual machine monitor.
METHODS
- my $id = $dom->get_id()
-
Returns an integer with a locally unique identifier for the domain.
- my $uuid = $dom->get_uuid()
-
Returns a 16 byte long string containing the raw globally unique identifier (UUID) for the domain.
- my $uuid = $dom->get_uuid_string()
-
Returns a printable string representation of the raw UUID, in the format 'XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX'.
- my $name = $dom->get_name()
-
Returns a string with a locally unique name of the domain
- my $hostname = $dom->get_hostname($flags=0)
-
Returns a string representing the hostname of the guest.
$flags
can be zero or more of - my $str = $dom->get_metadata($type, $uri, $flags =0)
-
Returns the metadata element of type
$type
associated with the domain. If$type
isSys::Virt::Domain::METADATA_ELEMENT
then the$uri
parameter specifies the XML namespace to retrieve, otherwise$uri
should beundef
. The optional$flags
parameter defaults to zero. - $dom->set_metadata($type, $val, $key, $uri, $flags=0)
-
Sets the metadata element of type
$type
to hold the value$val
. If$type
isSys::Virt::Domain::METADATA_ELEMENT
then the$key
and$uri
elements specify an XML namespace to use, otherwise they should both beundef
. The optional$flags
parameter defaults to zero. - $dom->is_active()
-
Returns a true value if the domain is currently running
- $dom->is_persistent()
-
Returns a true value if the domain has a persistent configuration file defined
- $dom->is_updated()
-
Returns a true value if the domain is running and has a persistent configuration file defined that is out of date compared to the current live config.
- my $xml = $dom->get_xml_description($flags=0)
-
Returns an XML document containing a complete description of the domain's configuration. The optional $flags parameter controls generation of the XML document, defaulting to 0 if omitted. It can be one or more of the XML DUMP constants listed later in this document.

-
Returns a string containing the name of the OS type running within the domain.

. - $ddom = $dom->migrate(destcon, \%params, flags=0)
-
Migrate a domain to an alternative host. The
destcon
parameter should be aSys::Virt
connection to the remote target host. Theflags
parameter takes one or more of theSys::Virt::Domain::MIGRATE_XXX
constants described later in this document. The%params
parameter is a hash reference used to set various parameters for the migration operation, with the following valid keys.Sys::Virt::Domain::MIGRATE_PARAM_URI
-
The URI to use for initializing the domain migration. It takes a hypervisor specific format. The uri_transports element of the hypervisor capabilities XML includes details of the supported URI schemes. When omitted libvirt will auto-generate suitable default URI. It is typically only necessary to specify this URI if the destination host has multiple interfaces and a specific interface is required to transmit migration data.
Sys::Virt::Domain::MIGRATE_PARAM_DEST_NAME
-
The name to be used for the domain on the destination host. Omitting this parameter keeps the domain name the same. This field is only allowed to be used with hypervisors that support domain renaming during migration.
Sys::Virt::Domain::MIGRATE_PARAM_DEST_XML
-
The new configuration to be used for the domain on the destination host. The configuration must include an identical set of virtual devices, to ensure a stable guest ABI across migration. Only parameters related to host side configuration can be changed in the XML. Hypervisors which support this field will forbid migration if the provided XML would cause a change in the guest ABI. This field cannot be used to rename the domain during migration (use VIR_MIGRATE_PARAM_DEST_NAME field for that purpose). Domain name in the destination XML must match the original domain name.
Omitting this parameter keeps the original domain configuration. Using this field with hypervisors that do not support changing domain configuration during migration will result in a failure.
Sys::Virt::Domain::MIGRATE_PARAM_GRAPHICS_URI
-
URI to use for migrating client's connection to domain's graphical console as VIR_TYPED_PARAM_STRING. If specified, the client will be asked to automatically reconnect using these parameters instead of the automatically computed ones. This can be useful if, e.g., the client does not have a direct access to the network virtualization hosts are connected to and needs to connect through a proxy. The URI is formed as follows:
protocol://hostname[:port]/[?parameters]
where protocol is either "spice" or "vnc" and parameters is a list of protocol specific parameters separated by '&'. Currently recognized parameters are "tlsPort" and "tlsSubject". For example,
spice://target.host.com:1234/?tlsPort=4567
Sys::Virt::Domain::MIGRATE_PARAM_BANDWIDTH
-
The maximum bandwidth (in MiB/s) that will be used for migration. If set to 0 or omitted, libvirt will choose a suitable default. Some hypervisors do not support this feature and will return an error if this field is used and is not 0.
Sys::Virt::Domain::MIGRATE_PARAM_BANDWIDTH_POSTCOPY
-
The maximum bandwidth (in MiB/s) that will be used for migration during post-copy phase. If set to 0 or omitted, libvirt will choose a suitable default. Some hypervisors do not support this feature and return an error if this field is used and is not 0.
Sys::Virt::Domain::MIGRATE_PARAM_LISTEN_ADDRESS
-
The address on which to listen for incoming migration connections. If omitted, libvirt will listen on the wildcard address (0.0.0.0 or ::). This default may be a security risk if guests, or other untrusted users have the ability to connect to the virtualization host, thus use of an explicit restricted listen address is recommended.
Sys::Virt::Domain::MIGRATE_PARAM_DISK_PORT
-
Port that destination server should use for incoming disks migration. Type is VIR_TYPED_PARAM_INT. If set to 0 or omitted, libvirt will choose a suitable default. At the moment this is only supported by the QEMU driver.
