用C++编程调用libvirt的API来创建KVM虚拟机

1. 如果已经写好了创建kvm的配置文件(stand.xml)格式,那么创建kvm虚拟机只要使用命令即可:

virsh define ./conf/stand.xml                                                                                                                                 
virsh start rheltest3

2. 如果直接编程调用libvirt创建kvm虚拟机,则可用以下程序

/***************************************************************************
 * create_vm.cpp
 *  create kvm machine(domain) based on conf.xml
 *  the first parameter is the conf xml files' name
 *  Note: the .xml must has two boot types (cdrom/hd) by any order
 *  compile command: 'g++ create_vm.cpp -o createvm -lvirt'
 *  running command: './createvm  /path/to/xml/example.xml'
