lost and found ( for me ? ): Ubuntu 11.04 : install libvirt from source , connect to ESXi w/ virsh

libvirt which is provided by apt-get has no ESXi driver , so I build libvirt with ESX driver from source.

# tail -1 /etc/lsb-release

DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 11.04"

# uname -r

2.6.38-10-server

# libvirtd --version

libvirtd (libvirt) 0.8.8

[ download libvirt ]

download libvirt source file from http://libvirt.org

I downloaded libvirt-0.9.3.tar.gz.

[ build libvirt ]

install the following packages via apt-get

# apt-get install gcc make libxml2-dev libgnutls-dev libdevmapper-dev libcurl4-gnutls-dev python-dev libnl-dev libsasl-dev

# tar xzvf libvirt-0.9.3.tar.gz

# cd libvirt-0.9.3/

specify –with-esx option.

# ./configure --help | egrep esx

--with-esx add ESX support [default=check]

confirm ESX diver is yes.

# ./configure –prefix=/usr/local/libvirt --with-esx
