Specifying URIs to libVirt;
name parameter to virConnectOpen or
virConnectOpenReadOnly
virConnectPtr conn = virConnectOpenReadOnly ("test:///default");
/etc/libvirt/libvirt.conf
uri_aliases = [
"ruiyHail=qemu+ssh://root@ruiy.hail.cc/system",
"sleet=qemu+ssh://ruiy@sleet.cc/system",
]
uri_default = "qemu:///system"
A URL aliases should be a string made up;
VIR_CONNECT_NO_ALIASES parameter virConnectOpenAuth
if the URI passed to virConnectOpen* is NULL,libvirt will use following logic to determine what URI to use;
environment variabe LIBVIRT_DEFAULT_URI
client configuration file uri_default parameter
probe
specifying URIs to virsh,virt-manager and virt-install
In virsh use the -c or --connect options
virsh -c test:///default list
virsh_default_connect_uri
libvirt_default_uri
deprecated
interactive virsh shell;

offer rich syntax many features
pass a NULL pointer to virConnectOpen*

(xend-unix-server yes)
(xend-http-server yes)
definitely not recommended for production use
