=head1 NAME
B<cfgve> - Configure the elements for a virtual environment.
=head1 SYNOPSIS

B<cfgve> B<-t> cl B<-m> manager B<-o> object [B<-c> | B<-r> B<-f>]

=head1 DESCRIPTION
The B<cfgve> command can be used to configure a virtual environment for
'Storage Domain', 'Network' and 'Template' objects.
The mandatory parameter B<-m manager> is used to specify the address of the
manager of virtual environment. xCAT needs it to access the RHEV manager.
The mandatory parameter B<-t type> is used to specify the type of the target
object.
Basically, B<cfgve> command supports five types of object: B<dc>, B<cl>,
B<sd>, B<nw> and B<tpl>.
=over 3
B<dc> - The B<create> and B<remove> operations are supported.
B<cl> - The B<create> and B<remove> operations are supported.
B<sd> - The B<create>, B<attach>, B<detach>, B<activate>,
B<deactivate> and B<remove> operations are supported.
B<nw> - The B<create> and B<remove> operations are supported.
B<tpl> - The B<remove> operation is supported.
=back
The mandatory parameter B<-o object> is used to specify which object to configure.
=head1 OPTIONS
=over 2
=item B<-t>
Specify the B<type> of the target object.
Supported types:
B<dc> - Data Center
B<cl> - Cluster
B<sd> - Storage Domain
B<nw> - Network
B<tpl> - Template
=item B<-m>
Specify the manager of the virtual environment.
For RHEV, the FQDN (Fully Qualified Domain Name) of the rhev manager have
to be specified.
=item B<-o>
The name of the target object.
=item B<-d>
The name of data center.
Specify the 'Data Center' that will be used for the object to be attached to.
It is used by <nw> type.
=item B<-c>
To create the target object.
For creating of B<Storage Domain>, the target storage domain will be created
first, then attached to data center and activated.
The parameters that used to create the storage domain are gotten
from 'virtsd' table. The detail parameters in the virtsd table:
=over 3
B<virtsd.node> - The name of the storage domain.
B<virtsd.sdtype> - The type of storage domain. Valid value: data, iso, export.
Default value is 'data'.
B<virtsd.stype> - The storage type. "nfs" or "localfs".
B<virtsd.location> - The location of the storage.
B<nfs>: Format: [nfsserver:nfspath].
The NFS export directory must be configured for read write access and must
be owned by vdsm:kvm.
B<localfs>: "/data/images/rhev" is set by default.
B<virtsd.host> - A host must be specified for a storage doamin as SPM
(Storage Pool Manager) when initialize the storage domain. The role of SPM
may be migrated to other host by rhev-m during the running of the datacenter
(For example, when the current SPM encountered issue or going to maintenance
status.
B<virtsd.datacenter> - The storage will be attached to. 'Default' data center
is the default value.
=back
=item B<-g>
To activate the target object.
=item B<-s>
To deactivate the target object.
=item B<-a>
To attach the target object.
=item B<-b>
To detach the target object.
=item B<-r>
To remove the target object.
For removing of B<Storage Domain>, the storage space will be formatted after removing.
=item B<-f>
It can be used with B<-r> to remove the target object by force.
For removing of B<Storage Domain>, if B<-f> is specified, the storage domain will be deactivated and detached from data center before the removing.
=item B<-h>
Display usage message.
=back
=head1 RETURN VALUE
0 The command completed successfully.
1 An error has occurred.
