I try to set some disks to network devices like nbd, rbd or sheepdog. The possibility to edit the xml direct gaves me the hope that would be possible. I added a conventional file based disk drive, valifate it and restart the guest and all works fine. After that I change the source like the following:

The client (0.5 1f54e03 beta) crashes, after that. I edit directly the libvirt-bin XML-File, reload the definition with virsh, and I can use the guest. If touch the guest with the archipel client again, the client crashes, an sometimes he deletetd the unknown definition.

Is it possible that the client ignores the not understanded XML in the machine definition ?
Is it possible that the client didn't remove unknown XML ?

Thanks.
