Comment 2 Daniel Berrangé 2007-09-24 23:50:29 UTC
There is no documented directory where VM config files exist. They are managed
privately by XenD and not exposed to the admin. The 'virsh dumpxml' command be
used to view a VM's configuration information, while the 'virsh define' command
can be used to save a new configuration. This is documented in the 'virsh' manpage.
