[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#1075718: Subject: Re: Bug#1075718: libvirt-clients: virsh domif-setlink fails to update state

[Robert]

Hi,

I encountered the same bug, just that also the first invocation failed.
So I could not bring up the network at all.

I found the following workaround, in case anybody else also struggles 
with this:

- Execute command with argument "--print-xml", e.g.
    virsh domif-setlink ViRogue up --print-xml > domif-up.xml
- Edit domif-up.xml and fix double "state" tags in "link" entry
- Apply XML to running VM, e.g.
   virsh update-device ViRogue domif-up.xml --live


Thank you!
