Linux KVM Notes

1. /var/lib/libvrt/images/image-name will contain links to the mulipath device
2. From this, run multipath -l too see which disk corresponds to the multipath device
3. virsh dumpxml image-name dumps out the kvm config showing what the device name will be within the VM

NOTE: The bus type should be virtio as this is the most performant

The KVM GUI is called virt-manager

1. partition the new disk with fdisk starting from block 2049
2. create a link to /dev/mapper/mpathn in /var/lib/libvirt/images/image-name - Use virt-manager GUI to add hardware
