You can also define a domain with same xml for qemu, but that's expected, and actually it's a design. If a same domain (same domain name and UUID) is already defined, any new "define" will update the domain config. That's why you can define it many times with no changes on the domain xml, but error when you changed the guest name. |

Type: 'help' for help with commands 'quit' to quit virsh # define lxc-1.xml Domain vm1 defined from lxc-1.xml virsh # list --all Id Name State ---------------------------------- - vm1 shut off virsh # define lxc-1.xml Domain vm1 defined from lxc-1.xml virsh # define lxc-1.xml Domain vm1 defined from lxc-1.xml virsh # list --all Id Name State ---------------------------------- - vm1 shut off Actual results: Expected results: the prompt message enhancement is required . Additional info: Tried to change the lxc guest name in the xml , and leave the uuid the same with the existing one . Could get the exact error prompt virsh # define lxc-1.xml error: Failed to define domain from lxc-1.xml error: operation failed: domain 'vm1' is already defined with uuid 386f5b25-43ee-9d62-4ce2-58c3809e47c1
