NAME

       uvt-simplestreams-libvirt - manage simplestreams images in libvirt

SYNOPSIS

       uvt-simplestreams-libvirt sync [--no-authentication] [--keyring keyring] [--source source]
                                      [--path path] [filter ...]

       uvt-simplestreams-libvirt query [filter ...]

       uvt-simplestreams-libvirt purge

DESCRIPTION

       uvt-simplestreams-libvirt maintains a libvirt volume storage pool as a local mirror  of  a
       subset of images available from a simplestreams source, such as Ubuntu cloud images.

       uvt-simplestreams-libvirt sync  updates  the  local mirror with the latest version of each
       product available in the simplestreams source. Each filter restricts  the  set  of  images
       visible to the tool.

       If syncing images for .I emulation use, e.g. armhf on an amd64 host then .B sync will also
       prepare the kernel/initrd for later use. In this case the .B sync action will need .I root
       permission to store the files.

       uvt-simplestreams-libvirt query  queries  the  local  mirror.  Each  filter  restricts the
       output.

       uvt-simplestreams-libvirt purge exists only for development and  debugging  purposes,  and
       should  not  normally  be  used.  It purges the entire libvirt volume storage pool and all
       metadata associated with it, breaking any  existing  VMs  that  use  these  volumes.  This
       subcommand may disappear in the future.

OPTIONS

       --no-authentication
              Do  not  authenticate the source. This is useful when you are using a local source,
              or can otherwise trust both the source and your network path to the source.  It  is
              insecure in other cases and should not be used.

       --keyring keyring
              Use    the    gpg(1)    keyring    to    authenticate    the    source.    Default:
              /usr/share/keyrings/ubuntu-cloudimage-keyring.gpg.

       --source source
              Use the source URL as the simplestreams source of product images to sync.

       --path path
              Pass path to the simplestreams library.

EXAMPLES
