Here is the contents of the xen config generated by virsh:

maxmem = 256

builder = "hvm"
kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
boot = "c"
pae = 1
acpi = 1
apic = 1
localtime = 0
on_poweroff = "destroy"
on_reboot = "restart"
on_crash = "restart"
device_model = "/usr/lib64/xen/bin/qemu-dm"
disk = [ "phy:/dev/SystemsVG/Belldandy,hda,w" ]
vif = [ "mac=00:16:3e:1d:43:df,bridge=xenbr0,script=vif-bridge" ]
