Overview

Creates a volume from an XML definition (unlike vol-create-as, which creates volumes from a set of command line arguments).

Volumes can be created from an XML definition file produced by a previous virsh vol-dumpxml command.

virsh vol-create <pool-name> ./volume-definition-file.xml 
virsh vol-create main-storage-pool ./node3.qcow2.xml

Note that at the moment of creation, the qcow2 volumes are empty, while the raw volumes show as fully allocated.
