[libvirt] [PATCH] doc: storage pool permission copy-paste fix

Philipp Hahn hahn at univention.de
Tue Aug 13 12:38:33 UTC 2013


The description for <permissions> was copied from the storage volume
section to the storage pool section, but the semantics are different:
1. Currently only the "dir", "fs" and "netfs" storage pools use it.
2. They use it only to build the final directory.
3. A default for the storage volumes can't be set.
