Hi,

3 VMs on a host, all in autostart: the both where

<disk type='block' device='disk'> <source dev='/dev/vg0/DomU1'/> <target dev='vda' bus='virtio'/> </disk>

are not started automagically on host startup. They start without problem from virsh. The one having

<disk type='file' device='disk'> <source file='/media/vm2/vdisk.qcow2'/> <target dev='hda' bus='ide'/> </disk>

has no problem. Any idea why?

FYI, libvirt/virsh specific questions should go to libvirt-list@redhat.com. CCing

Ok, sorry for that. Reply will go there

Try 'virsh dominfo <vmname>' for each VM to ensure autostart is actually enabled.

virsh # dominfo Domain3 Id: 3 Name: Domain3 UUID: 98318198-c595-327c-42e1-85be81269324 OS Type: hvm State: running CPU(s): 2 CPU time: 452,2s Max memory: 1048576 kB Used memory: 524288 kB Autostart: enable virsh # dominfo Domain1 Id: 1 Name: Domain1 UUID: 26e5de74-0841-c4b3-4cc4-e0df0f93cb39 OS Type: hvm State: running CPU(s): 2 CPU time: 60580,7s Max memory: 1048576 kB Used memory: 1048576 kB Autostart: enable virsh # dominfo Domain2 Id: 2 Name: Domain2 UUID: 98318198-c595-327c-42e1-85be81269323 OS Type: hvm State: running CPU(s): 2 CPU time: 1360,2s Max memory: 1048576 kB Used memory: 1048576 kB Autostart: enable

To see why autostart is failing, you want to launch libvirtd by hand. Stop all your VMs, do a service libvirtd stop, then (as root) run 'libvirtd'. Any VM startup error messages should be printed on the console.

I did it and still did'nt get the 2 VMs starting. So I activate again autostart, in that order: virsh --connect qemu:///system net-autostart MyNetwork virsh --connect qemu:///system autostart Domain1 virsh --connect qemu:///system autostart Domain2 virsh --connect qemu:///system autostart Domain3 and now all is OK. Thanks for your support -- Daniel
