NAME
       Sys::Virt::NodeDevice - Represent & manage a libvirt storage pool

DESCRIPTION
       The "Sys::Virt::NodeDevice" module represents a storage pool managed by libvirt. There are a variety of storage pool implementations for
       LVM, Local directories/filesystems, network filesystems, disk partitioning, iSCSI, and SCSI.

METHODS
       my $name = $dev->get_name()
	   Returns a string with a locally unique name of the device

       my $parentname = $dev->get_parent()
	   Returns a string with a locally unique name of the parent of the device, or undef if there is no parent

       my $xml = $dev->get_xml_description()
	   Returns an XML document containing a complete description of the storage dev's configuration

       $dev->reattach()
	   Rebind the node device to the host OS device drivers.

       $dev->dettach()
	   Unbind the node device from the host OS device driver

       $dev->reset()
	   Reset the node device. The device must be unbound from the host OS drivers for this to work

       $dev->destroy()
	   Destroy the virtual device releasing any OS resources associated with it.

       my @caps = $dev->list_capabilities()
	   Return a list of all capabilities in the device.
