I don't think this clarifies anything. The paragraph you added to the virDomainSetAutostartOnce API was IMO clearer, i.e.: Note that autostart configured via the --once option is independent from the autostart configured without it. Enabling either of them will cause the VM to be started on the next boot. Reviewed-by: Ján Tomko <jto...@redhat.com> Jano
