• Create the configuration file for a storage pool called pool_name using /var/vms as the underlying storage system (use virsh pool-build to create the underlying storage system and use virsh pool-start to start the inactive pool):

virsh pool-define-as --name {{pool_name}} --type {{dir}} --target {{/var/vms}}
