16       replacement.

DESCRIPTION

19       "virt-list-partitions" is a command line tool to list the partitions
20       that are contained in a virtual machine or disk image.  It is mainly
21       useful as a first step to using virt-resize(1).
22
23       "virt-list-partitions" is just a simple wrapper around libguestfs(3)
24       functionality.  For more complex cases you should look at the
25       guestfish(1) tool.
26

OPTIONS

28       --help
29           Display brief help.
30
31       --version
32           Display version number and exit.
33
34       -c URI
35       --connect URI
36           If using libvirt, connect to the given URI.  If omitted, then we
37           connect to the default libvirt hypervisor.
38
39           If you specify guest block devices directly, then libvirt is not
40           used at all.
41
42       --format raw
43           Specify the format of disk images given on the command line.  If
44           this is omitted then the format is autodetected from the content of
45           the disk image.
46
47           If disk images are requested from libvirt, then this program asks
48           libvirt for this information.  In this case, the value of the
49           format parameter is ignored.
50
51           If working with untrusted raw-format guest disk images, you should
52           ensure the format is always specified.
53
54       -h
55       --human-readable
56           Show sizes in human-readable form (eg. "1G").
57
58       -l
59       --long
60           With this option, "virt-list-partitions" displays the type and size
61           of each partition too (where "type" means "ext3", "pv" etc.)
62
63       -t
64       --total
65           Display the total size of each block device (as a separate row or
66           rows).
67

SHELL QUOTING

69       Libvirt guest names can contain arbitrary characters, some of which
70       have meaning to the shell such as "#" and space.  You may need to quote
71       or escape these characters on the command line.  See the shell manual
72       page sh(1) for details.
