[libvirt] [PATCH 3/3] tools: Add support for additional adapter parent options

John Ferlan jferlan at redhat.com
Thu Mar 8 23:31:20 UTC 2018


Add the ability to provide the adapter parent_wwnn and parent_wwpn
or the parent_fabric_wwn on the virsh command line for the pool
define/create as commands.  Update the virsh.pod description.
