NAME

       Sys::Virt::NodeDevice - Represent & manage a libvirt storage pool

DESCRIPTION

       The "Sys::Virt::NodeDevice" module represents a storage pool managed by libvirt. There are a variety of storage pool implementations for
       LVM, Local directories/filesystems, network filesystems, disk partitioning, iSCSI, and SCSI.

METHODS

       my $name = $dev->get_name()
	   Returns a string with a locally unique name of the device

       my $parentname = $dev->get_parent()
	   Returns a string with a locally unique name of the parent of the device, or undef if there is no parent

       my $xml = $dev->get_xml_description()
	   Returns an XML document containing a complete description of the storage dev's configuration

       $dev->reattach()
	   Rebind the node device to the host OS device drivers.

       $dev->dettach()
	   Unbind the node device from the host OS device driver

       $dev->reset()
	   Reset the node device. The device must be unbound from the host OS drivers for this to work

       $dev->destroy()
	   Destroy the virtual device releasing any OS resources associated with it.

       my @caps = $dev->list_capabilities()
	   Return a list of all capabilities in the device.

NAME

       Sys::Virt::Interface - Represent & manage a libvirt host network interface

DESCRIPTION

       The "Sys::Virt::Interface" module represents a host network interface allowing configuration of IP addresses, bonding, vlans and bridges.

METHODS

       my $name = $iface->get_name()
	   Returns a string with a locally unique name of the network

       $iface->is_active()
	   Returns a true value if the interface is currently running

       my $name = $iface->get_mac()
	   Returns a string with the hardware MAC address of the interface

       my $xml = $iface->get_xml_description()
	   Returns an XML document containing a complete description of the network's configuration

       $iface->create()
	   Start a network whose configuration was previously defined using the "define_network" method in Sys::Virt.

       $iface->undefine()
	   Remove the configuration associated with a network previously defined with the "define_network" method in Sys::Virt. If the network is
	   running, you probably want to use the "shutdown" or "destroy" methods instead.

       $iface->destroy()
	   Immediately terminate the machine, and remove it from the virtual machine monitor. The $iface handle is invalid after this call
	   completes and should not be used again.

CONSTANTS

   XML CONSTANTS
       The following constants are used when querying XML

       Sys::Virt::Interface::XML_INACTIVE
	   Request the inactive XML, instead of the current possibly live config.
