Actually, the command when we try to restore the vm domain returns this in the 
xend.log:

[2007-05-16 14:50:13 xend 2903] ERROR (XendDomain:268) Restore failed

That is while using the user interface, doing a "restore domain file", and 
pointing to the storagefile.

Also, fyi:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# xm list
Name                                      ID Mem(MiB) VCPUs State   Time(s)
Domain-0                                   0     3895     4 r-----    417.3



Thank you,
Michel

Michel,

Don't start reinstalling the server. In a console (shell) just run

xm start vm (or whatever the machine name was).

Check again in virt-manager the state of the virtual machine.

Life is like arriving late for a movie, having to figure out what was going on
without bothering everybody with a lot of questions, and then being
unexpectedly called away before you find out how it ends.
