[gentoo-user] kvm and libvirt

[Coert Waagmeester <lgroups@waagmeester.co.za>]

Hello all,

At the moment I have a running install of kvm.
I do all the virtual networking manually with help of tap adaptors and
bridges.
And I use LVM for the VMs disks.

It is working very well, but to add a VM or to migrate it to another
host is laborious.

Now I have started playing with libvirt, and I would like to know if
anyone else here uses the combination of kvm and libvirt?

What is the most dynamic way of automatically setting up virtual
networks per VM? Should I use qemu-ifup?


I do not use routed or NATted virtual nets. only bridging.


Kind regards,
