1. 概述
libvirt是基于KVM的上层封装，提供了操作KVM的生层接口，如虚拟机的生命周期(创建，删除，查看，管理)等，网络的管理和存储的管理。通过libvirt可以操作KVM，实现类似于virsh,virt-manager这些工具能够实现的功能，本文以查看当前hypervisor的所有instance为例，讲述通过libvirt模块，查看当前机器的虚拟机列表，关于libvirt的更多操作，如开机，关机，重启，网络管理，存储管理等操作，参考附件。

4. 总结
通过libvirt能够实现KVM的管理，libvirt提供了大部分管理KVM的接口，通过改接口，可以实现openstack底层的操作。
