Hi,
I have created a VM with the option inside virt-manager to "start virtual machine on
host boot up". It is the only VM on the host to be configured this way. However, I
am getting this error in the log file when it attempts to start it on boot up:

2017-06-19 07:15:18.824+0000: shutting down
However, when I start the VM manually through virt-manager, it starts up fine.
Why might it fail during boot-up? And is there anything I can do to solve the problem?
Many thanks,
Andy
