Modify the XML file to successfully deploy the VM.

Perform the following modifications.

Open the XML file in an editor.
If required, add the machine type.

```
Modified tag entry
```

```
Update the emulator location.
The emulator path may vary depending on your environment. You must verify the location of the emulator before updating the path.
Original tag entry
```
<emulator>/usr/bin/kvm</emulator>
```
Modified tag entry
```
<emulator>/usr/bin/kvm/libexec/qemu-kvm</emulator>
```
Update the absolute path where the disk image file is located.
Original tag entry
```
<source file='bdds_kvm_9.4.0-XXX.GA.bcn_amd64.tar.gz'/>
```
Modified tag entry

Configure interfaces with appropriate VLANs.
1. Configure eth0.
  Original tag entry
```
<source network='default'/>

<source network='default'/>
```
