Thanks for your reply. Yet it seems that it does support Xen based on the running script:
virsh --version=long Virsh command line tool of libvirt 0.9.10 See web site at http://libvirt.org/ Compiled with support for: Hypervisors: Xen QEmu/KVM UML OpenVZ VirtualBox LXC Test Networking: Remote Daemon Network Bridging Nwfilter VirtualPort Storage: Dir Filesystem SCSI Multipath iSCSI LVM Miscellaneous: SELinux Secrets Debug Do you think the output is normal? Or are there any other possible reasons for this error?
