Hi there, Right now, all KVM (I think Xen too but I don't know it for sure) VMs are started as a transient libvirt domain using the "virsh create <xml>" command. There is nothing wrong with it but recently I had a facility wide power failure and all VMs running on the node are gone upon the server shutdown. I had to manually start all the domains that were running at the point of failure after power is resumed. Then I thought that if I put the VMs as libvirt autostart domains, they will be automatically started upon boot, which would save me a lot of manual process. But to do that, I have to make the VMs persistent libvirt domains using the "virsh define" and "virsh start" commands in sequence instead of the single "virsh create".
Is this a good idea? Comments welcome. Thanks. Shi -- Shi Jin, Ph.D.
