Any vm marked to start when libvirt is started is started, even if it is
already running, which leads to multiple running vms trying to use the
same disk image.
I think this probably started with the upgrade from 0.7.4 to 0.7.5 but I
can't be entirely sure as I only realised yesterday that I had somehow
managed to get multiple instances of a VM running. It definitely
happened this morning when the updated from 0.7.5.-1 to 0.7.5-3 in the
F12 virt-preview repo caused a restart.
It sounds like you are probably hitting this bug
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=550400
the trouble is I can't reproduce it myself. When you manually start a
VM, can you check whether the /var/run/libvirt/qemu/$GUEST.xml file
contains the monitor path info.
