so it becomes clear now, I guess you didn't 'define' the guest from
libvirt side, that means'vm01' is not a persistent domain, so after
you shutdown the vm01 using xm, yes, libvirt can't see it anymore.
actually even if after you use "virsh destroy" or "virsh shutdown",
libvirt can't see it either.. :-)
the way to define a domain to be persistent,(assume the domain is running)
# virsh dumpxml vm01 > vm01.xml
# virsh define vm01.xml
then think you can start it via:
# virsh start vm01
