The $HOME/.config/libvirt/libvirt.conf client config file can contain<br>
<br>
     uri_default = &quot;qemu:///system&quot;<br>
<br>
Or you can set per shell with <br>
<br>
     export LIBVIRT_DEFAULT_URI=qemu:///system<br>
<br>
Or you can set it just for virsh with<br>
<br>
     export VIRSH_DEFAULT_CONNECT_URI=qemu:///system<br>
