Expected results:
 If the save command failed, the error message should be output to user.
 
Additional info:
 For the reason why save command failed, that's a different issue from
 virt-manager, and will be reported with different bug.

Comment 1 Daniel Berrangé 2007-01-04 19:10:48 UTC
Fixing this first requires sensible error reporting in libxc (see bug  212272).
Once that's done, some more work is needed in XenD to actually capture the error
& feed it back to libvirt, before virt-manager stands a chance of seeing it.
