Hi!

I have a question about the VirtualDomain RA (as in SLES15 SP2):
Why does the RA "undefine", then "create" a domain instead of just "start"ing a 
domain?
I mean: Assuming that an "installation" does "define" the domains, why bother with configuration 
files and "create" when a simple "start" would do also?


It makes sense to clean up the certain situation to avoid the "create" failure. Example:

1. given foobar.xml doesn't provide UUID
2. `virsh define foobar.xml`
3. `virsh create foobar.xml` <-- error: Failed to create domain from foobar.xml

Cheers,

Specifically this code:
verify_undefined() {
         local tmpf
         if virsh --connect=${OCF_RESKEY_hypervisor} list --all --name 2>/dev/null | grep 
-wqs "$DOMAIN_NAME"
         then
                 tmpf=$(mktemp -t vmcfgsave.XXXXXX)
                 if [ ! -r "$tmpf" ]; then
                         ocf_log warn "unable to create temp file, disk full?"
                         # we must undefine the domain
                         virsh $VIRSH_OPTIONS undefine $DOMAIN_NAME > /dev/null 
2>&1
                 else
                         cp -p $OCF_RESKEY_config $tmpf
                         virsh $VIRSH_OPTIONS undefine $DOMAIN_NAME > /dev/null 
2>&1
                         [ -f $OCF_RESKEY_config ] || cp -f $tmpf 
$OCF_RESKEY_config
                         rm -f $tmpf
                 fi
         fi
}

Regards,
Ulrich
