When I try to run $ virsh change-media ubuntu-16.04-amd64 hda --eject --config, I get an error: error: failed to get domain 'ubuntu-16.04-amd64' error: Domain not found: no domain with matching name 'ubuntu-16.04-amd64' Do you have any idea what I might be doing wrong? — You are receiving this because you authored the thread.
