The latest libvirt now has proper UUID/name uniqueness checking and complains suitably if you edit the 'name', but leave the UUID alone. # virsh edit openfiler23 error: operation failed: domain 'openfiler23' is already defined with uuid 7699653a-0b6c-d8b1-6c37-8e39d219cd3f Opps, shouldn't have closed this one, since its against F11, not rawhide. Upstream fix was

You can provide feedback for this update here: http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/F11/FEDORA-2009-8333 after the upgrade i'm completely unable to rename a guest. virsh edit Drupal-Testing // changed name; save and quit editor Fehler: operation failed: domain 'Drupal-Testing' is already defined with uuid 352617c1-d0f3-a1c1-add5-7d4a429be183 Yes, that is the intended fix, renaming is not supported in libvirt. libvirt-0.6.2-14.fc11 has been pushed to the Fedora 11 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. Hi, people! I'm using FC13 with libvirt-0.8.2, but the problem still persist! I tried rename my VM using the following steps: 1) virsh edit win-xp 2) change the attribute : "name" in xml the my VM. After save the XML VM windows I recevied the following message: error: operation failed: domain 'win-xp' is already defined with uuid 0f318195-9fbd-cedc-6683-6c8f876e957e Sorry, maybe I'm making a mistake in the procedure. Version my packages libvirt...

If you want to change either of those, you'll need to: virsh dumpxml $DOMAIN > domain.xml virsh undefine $DOMAIN <edit domain.xml> virsh define domain.xml Chris Lalancette Hi Chris, This worked. Pardon my ignorance!!! ;o) Thanks for the tips.. Claudemir. |
