[libvirt-users] virsh edit has no impact on domain

[Probir Roy]

Hi,

I am using "virsh edit" to edit a domain. After edit it says

>> Domain ubuntu18.04 XML configuration edited.

However, reopening the domain with "virsh edit" shows old file.

The domain is also turned off.

$virsh list --all --persistent
 Id    Name                           State
----------------------------------------------------
 -     ubuntu18.04                    shut off


I have also tried running "virsh define" to set new configuration.


$virsh define ubuntu18.04.xml
>>> Domain ubuntu18.04 defined from ubuntu18.04.xml

However, it also did not change the file. How can I edit the domain config
file?

OS: Ubuntu 18.04.1
virsh: 4.0.0
