Re: [Xen-devel] How to get the persistent identifier of a domain?
Thanks for kind help from your guys.
After I specified the uuid in the configuration file, I got stable uuid
across reboots. Now next question is: how to get the uuid using
program instead of command line. I mean, in the kernel space.
Thanks,
-lily

IIRC if you're using config files instead of the persistent VM support you
can also ensure a stable UUID by specifying it in the VM config file?
