I think we should be a bit more exact here: a VM without an installed OS does not pause. The cause of the pause was, most probably, and attempt to read from a corrupted qcow. When qemu fails to serve the guest with data due to a bug in the underlying storage, qemu stops and waits for further instructions from management. We use this feature for automatic lv-extend (on enospace error). But here, with eother error, a human intervension is required. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
