`virsh define container.xml` But I also see ehashman@host:~$ virt-xml-validate container.xml container.xml validates This machine is running Debian jessie, libvirt-bin: 1.2.9-9 QEMU: 2.1.2 (Debian 1:2.1+dfsg-12) Linux: 3.16.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.16.7-ckt11-1 (2015-05-24) x86_64 GNU/Linux I was able to successfully run the above command on another slightly out-of-date jessie machine with the following package versions: libvirt-bin: 1.2.7-10+b1 QEMU: 2.1.0 (Debian 2.1+dfsg-2) Linux: 3.14-2-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.14.15-2 (2014-08-09) x86_64 GNU/Linux Unlike the above reporter, my VM is only using 1024MB RAM and no chroot.
