The libvirt toolkit is focused primarily on KVM virtual machines, but it is intended to be usable for multiple virtualization technologies, including the Xen Project Hypervisor. As a result, some commands are essential when using Xen Project software, but others do not apply as they are targeted for KVM concepts.
Some of the essential virsh commands for manipulating Xen Project VMs include:
