Description Daniel Berrangé 2010-08-06 09:51:51 UTC
Description of problem:
The formatdomain.html docs about domain XML format is missing info about the timer options

eg things like

  <clock offset='utc'>
    <timer name='rtc' tickpolicy='catchup' track='wall'/>
    <timer name='pit' tickpolicy='delay'/>
  </clock>

Most of this is documented here, but there were some changes made after this initial writeup:
