PJ,
I didn't have virsh installed (libvirt-client). After having installed it, it still didn't see the process: virsh autostart testvm error: failed to connect to the hypervisor error: no valid connection error: Failed to connect socket to '/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock': No such file or directory Then, after having installed libvirt, it gives essentially the same error. I was thinking that in iterations past, it was possible just to run the hypervisor, put a symlink in /etc/xen/auto, and VMs would be auto-started upon reboot. Maybe I'm wrong, and maybe those older boxes had libvirt installed on them, too. If I need to install libvirt, what does this mean overall? What am I changing? What other process needs to run or be started upon boot on a CentOS 7.x box?

Since updating to 4.6, this doesn't work. Period. I'm having a hard time finding what needs to change in order to get VMs to auto start on reboot of a server. Can someone please point me to documentation that I have missed or share the gold nugget? -- Craig Thompson, President Caldwell Global Communications, Inc. _______________________________________________ CentOS-virt mailing list [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-virt _______________________________________________ CentOS-virt mailing list [email protected] https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-virt
