In case of RHEV, these files are not stored under /etc/libvirt/qemu
The vdsm daemon dynamically fetches the information of the VM from the RHEV-Managers
database to generate the XML files.
These files cannot be edited to make persistent changes, as they only exist throughout the
lifecycle of the VM, however, they can be viewed read-only by using the following command
or dumped to a location for viewing later (when the VM is poweredOFF)
virsh -r dumpxml vm_name > /tmp/vm_name
