Show qemu command line from virsh

I am debugging a problem with a libvirt VM starting, and I want to see the exact command line that it is going to use to start qemu. Is this possible using virsh or some other utility?


You can consult the libvirt logs in:

/var/log/libvirt/qemu/$vmname.log

Just saw this question. In the hope it helps others, the easiest way to see the qemu command that was used, while the VM is running, is:

ps -ef | grep qemu-system-x86
