[libvirt] VM/Domain "Start" method in libvirt API

Hi, I was referring to the libvirt API reference from the foll link: http://www.libvirt.org/html/libvirt-libvirt.html There are functions for Suspending, ShuttingDown or Rebooting the VM like virDomainSuspend, virDomainShutdown or virDomainReboot respectively. But I did not find any method for starting a particular domain/VM like virDomainStart. There is a function in virsh for doing the same: virsh start <domain> [--console] Is there any other alternative method for "starting"a given domain?? Thanks and Regards Sagar Barve

Hello, it is called virDomainCreate http://www.libvirt.org/html/libvirt-libvirt.html#virDomainCreate <http://www.libvirt.org/html/libvirt-libvirt.html#virDomainCreate> Greetings, Jaromír Červenka Official openSUSE community member Web: http://www.cervajz.com/ Jabber: cervajz@cervajz.com MSN: jara.cervenka@seznam.cz Tel.: +420 607 592 687 Alt. e-mails: jaromir.cervenka@opensuse.org, jaromir.cervenka@speel.cz 2010/6/7 IKI-サガル バルウェ <sagar.barve@ikic.co.jp>

WOW!! How did I miss that! Thanks a lot. Just another question. Is there any method for starting the domain on a different Xen Hypervisor with the same configuration. For. Eg: If a domain "test_domain" is currently in shut-off state in 1 Hypervisor. And I want to start the domain in a different physical hypervisor machine instead of the original.
