[libvirt-users] manage VM without root access?

[Alex Jia]

Hi Jun,
The virsh command can be used in read-only mode by unprivileged users or, with root access, 
full administration functionality. The virsh command is ideal for scripting virtualization 
administration, for example:

# virsh -r
Welcome to virsh, the virtualization interactive terminal.

Type:  'help' for help with commands
       'quit' to quit

virsh > list --all
 Id    Name                           State
----------------------------------------------------
 -     f16                            shut off

virsh > start f16
error: Failed to start domain f16
error: operation virDomainCreate forbidden for read only access



Regards,
Alex
