Virt-inspector can produce output in several formats, including a
readable text report, and XML for feeding into other programs.
-Virt-inspector should only be run on I<inactive> virtual machines.
-The program tries to determine that the machine is inactive and will
-refuse to run if it thinks you are trying to inspect a running domain.
-
In the normal usage, use C<virt-inspector domname> where C<domname> is
the libvirt domain (see: C<virsh list --all>).
The diagram above shows what we return for each OS.
With the I<--xml> option the output is mapped into an XML document.
-Unfortunately there is no clear schema for this document
-(contributions welcome) but you can get an idea of the format by
-looking at other documents and as a last resort the source for this
-program.
+There is a RELAX-NG schema for this XML in the file
+I<virt-inspector.rng> which normally ships with virt-inspector, or can
+be found in the source.
With the I<--fish> or I<--ro-fish> option the mount points are mapped to
L<guestfish(1)> command line parameters, so that you can go in
