I see that the libguestfs packages are included in the RHEV

Are there any plans to further integrate the libguestfs toolset into
the RHEV product ? In particular, the ability to mount and change raw
volume content for a VM via guestfish ?
Yes there are plans to do this, but no public timelines yet that I'm aware of. You
might be better asking this question on one of the oVirt lists, since that is now where
development happens:

It would be very nice to be able to mount a RHEV template and make an
alteration without having to boot a VM and create a fresh template
from it.
[...]
*If* you are certain that the VM is not running, and you know its UUID, then it's
possible to go into the RHEV storage and modify it directly. I can't remember the
details but it was fairly obvious how VMs are mapped onto logical volumes by UUID.
BTW - Are you doing RH Summit again this year ?
Not this year, but perhaps next year.
Rich.
