KVM / Libvirt DeleteVm
Delete or undefine KVM domain
Looks up a libvirt domain by name, stops it if running, and undefines it. Can also delete attached storage volumes parsed from the domain XML when deleteStorage is true (default false). Fails when the domain is missing unless failIfNotFound is set to false (default true).
