I’m pretty sure the examples are all there is at the moment. I spent a while looking for reference material a few months ago and haven’t seen anything new mentioned in this thread. Between the examples and a couple of questions to the list, I managed to piece together what we needed (command-line-driven machine creation specific to our needs).

I am a bit hazy on the specifics of what I did, but I recall that the main problem I had to ask about was with order-of-operations issues - it wasn’t obvious to me that setting some things out of the expected (by the API) order wouldn’t work. IIRC, this had to do with setting boot options.

Best of luck,
