Re: [Fedora-xen] virt-manager and guest config file

["mathieu rohon" <nooroon gmail com>]

Great, thanks for your answer Daniel.

So the following logical question is : How can I modify my guests parameters? let's say, add usb support for example?

More generally, can you tell me where this is documented?

thanks

In Fedora 7 / Xen 3.1.0  config files no longer live in /etc/xen. They
are managed internally by XenD itself so we have no direct access to
them any longer. XenD will store them in /var/lib/xend/domains, but you
can't edit those directly or your changes will be ignored/overwritten
by XenD.
