Hi All ,
 
We can set autostart parameter to start the guest automatically when virtual host start .

Hi Daniel,
You may see /etc/init.d/libvirtd carefully, libvirt is default started
on runlevel 3, 4, 5 (# Default-Start: 3 4 5):

# chkconfig libvirtd --list
libvirtd        0:off   1:off   2:off   3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off

It may be different for libvirtd location from you, because I'm using
a RHEL OS.

Good Luck!
Alex

Thanks Alex,


That did the trick. Now I am curious: how is libvirtd started at all?


I have Ubuntu 10.10, and I have noticed the presence of a symbolic link:



lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 2011-05-26 09:45 /etc/init.d/libvirt-bin -> /lib/init/upstart-job


But this script is not used in any of the runlevels. Who is starting libvirtd?


Thanks,
Daniel Gonzalez

Hi Daniel,
The following autostart should be okay for you:

# virsh help autostart
NAME
autostart - autostart a domain

SYNOPSIS
autostart <domain> [--disable]

DESCRIPTION
Configure a domain to be automatically started at boot.

Regards,
Alex

Hello,


I am managing several virtual machines (a predefined set) with virsh, and I would like to make sure that all VMs are booted when the host reboots.


What is the recommended approach for this?


Thanks,
Daniel Gonzalez
