Xen opensuse 12.2 Clone Missing config file

English Virtualization
1

Hi,

I have cloned a couple of domu machines using virt-manager, I am unable to find the config files, under /etc/xen/vm only the original config is found

My question is... where are the config files for the clones. The cloned Machines show up in virt-manager..

I need to find them to add a permanent USB device, its a licence key dongle for a key server running under a windows vm.
The virt-manager device add always fails for usb devices but xm usb-add works fine at run time.

Thanks

AFAIK when you clone a VM with a shared drive using vm-manager or any other libvirt based tool, the xml config file is placed in a subdirectory of /etc/libvirt/

Exact subdirectory and path is determined by what virtualization is used (today can be qemu, xen, LXC).

If you use a native CLI tool (xen in your case) then the xml file likely would be where you expected, in the storage pool near the virtual disk.
