Hi Cole
I tested the LXC VM with libvirt 1.2.12 after applying the patch
http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2016-April/msg00505.html
I'm now getting following errors..
virsh -c lxc: start test
error: Failed to start domain test
error: internal error: Unsupported network type ethernet
I'm using the below XML file for launching LXC VM..
<domain type="lxc">
<uuid>64c48da2-e318-4085-8b88-c980aab4de34</uuid>
<name>test</name>
<memory>524288</memory>
<vcpu>1</vcpu>
<os>
<type machine="virt">exe</type>
<cmdline>root=/dev/ram0 rw console=ttyAMA0 rootwait earlyprintk</cmdline>
<init>/bin/sh</init>
</os>
<clock offset="utc"/>
<devices>
<file/>
<interface type='ethernet'>
<mac address='02:74:ff:9d:52:f5'/>
<script path=''/>
<target dev='tap74f2-f5'/>
</interface>
<console type="pty"/>
</devices>
</domain>
Thanks
Abhishek Jain
