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.
