=head1 NAME
|
||||
|
||||
libvirtd - libvirtd management daemon
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
||||
|
||||
B<libvirtd> [ -dlv ] [ -f config_file ] [ -p pid_file ] [ -t timeout_seconds ]
|
||||
|
||||
B<libvirtd> --version
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
The B<libvirtd> program is the server side daemon component of the libvirt
|
||||
virtualization management system.
|
||||
|
||||
This daemon runs on host servers and performs required management tasks for
|
||||
virtualized guests. This includes activities such as starting, stopping
|
||||
and migrating guests between host servers, configuring and manipulating
|
||||
networking, and managing storage for use by guests.
|
||||
|
||||
The libvirt client libraries and utilities connect to this daemon to issue
|
||||
tasks and collect information about the configuration and resources of the host
|
||||
system and guests.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, the libvirtd daemon listens for requests on a local Unix domain
|
||||
socket. Using the B<-l>|B<--listen> command line option, the libvirtd daemon
|
||||
can be instructed to additionally listen on a TCP/IP socket. The TCP/IP socket
|
||||
to use is defined in the libvirtd configuration file.
|
||||
|
||||
Restarting libvirtd does not impact running guests. Guests continue to operate
|
||||
and will be picked up automatically if their XML configuration has been
|
||||
defined. Any guests whose XML configuration has not been defined will be lost
|
||||
from the configuration.

||||

||||
