.. _vhost02:
Creating the Virtual Machine
----------------------------
We will now create the virtual machine. We use the "virsh create command". For the complete file we
use refer to :ref:`xmlexample`.
It is important to note that in the XML file we specify the socket path that is used to connect to
FD.io VPP.
This is done with a section that looks like this
.. code-block:: console
<interface type='vhostuser'>
<mac address='52:54:00:4c:47:f2'/>
<source type='unix' path='/tmp//vm00.sock' mode='server'/>
<driver rx_queue_size='1024' tx_queue_size='1024'/>
<model type='virtio'/>
<alias name='net1'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x02' function='0x0'/>
</interface>
Notice the **interface type** and the **path** to the socket.
Now we create the VM. The virsh list command shows the VMs that have been created. We start with no VMs.
.. code-block:: console
$ virsh list
Id Name State
----------------------------------------------------
Create the VM with the virsh create command specifying our xml file.
.. code-block:: console
$ virsh create ./iperf3-vm.xml
Domain iperf-server3 created from ./iperf3-vm.xml
$ virsh list
Id Name State
----------------------------------------------------
65 iperf-server3 running
The VM is now created.
.. note::
After a VM is created an xml file can created with "virsh dumpxml".
.. code-block:: console
$ virsh dumpxml iperf-server3
<domain type='kvm' id='65'>
<name>iperf-server3</name>
<uuid>e23d37c1-10c3-4a6e-ae99-f315a4165641</uuid>
<memory unit='KiB'>262144</memory>
.....
Once the virtual machine is created notice the socket filename shows **Success** and
there are **Memory Regions**. At this point the VM and FD.io VPP are connected. Also
notice **qsz 1024**. A queue size of 256 will affect vhost throughput. The qsz should
be 1024. In QEMU 2.10.0 and libvirt 3.7.0 and later versions this is specified in the
xml file with the line **<driver rx_queue_size='1024' tx_queue_size='1024'/>** shown above
and in the example.
.. code-block:: console
vpp# show vhost
