Hi,
    I am trying to create a Para Virtualized Virtual Machine using a linux distribution ISO. I need to create it using XML-RPCs. If, I use virt-install to create VM it gives me a VNC port on which I can access the machine. But, if I use XML-RPCs to create VM and then start it using 'xm start <domain Name>', the machine can not be accessed on the VNC port specified in the XML dump. I am pasting the XML dumps created by both the methods.

XML dump using virt-install XML dump using XML-RPC and then 'xm create'

                  Finally, I need to create the VM's using XML-RPCs and access it on VNC. Any pointers ?

Thanks,
Sachin.
