py-libvirt problems with bhyve

[Craig Rodrigues]

Hi,

I did the following:

(1)  Set up libvirt, taking Roman's latest port, and configuring bhyve
support:

      http://people.freebsd.org/~rodrigc/libvirt/libvirt-bhyve.html

(2)  Installed the py-libvirt port.


I wrote this code:

import libvirt
import sys

conn = libvirt.openReadOnly(None)
if conn == None:
    print 'Failed to open connection to the hypervisor'
    sys.exit(1)

try:
    print conn.listAllDomains()
    #print dir(conn)
    dom0 = conn.lookupByName("bhyve")
except:
    print 'Failed to find the main domain'
    sys.exit(1)


but when I ran the code, I got this error:

[]
libvirt: QEMU Driver error : Domain not found: no domain with matching name
'bhyve'
Failed to find the main domain


Can anyone tell me how to write a py-libvirt program to
start/stop a bhyve VM?

Thanks.
