Hi, I have been using qemu and kvm for a while but I am newbie to libvirt. (but I really like it :) I am on Parabola (fork of Archlinux, using systemd) I only got an issue regarding libvirt-guests service, when my host boots about 7 times to 10 I got a issue on the service. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ systemctl status libvirt-guests.service ● libvirt-guests.service - Suspend Active Libvirt Guests Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/libvirt-guests.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Thu 2016-08-11 10:55:35 CEST; 36s ago Docs: man:libvirtd(8) http://libvirt.org Process: 347 ExecStart=/usr/lib/libvirt/libvirt-guests.sh start (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) Main PID: 347 (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) Aug 11 10:55:35 oms_apex_plaisir systemd[1]: Starting Suspend Active Libvirt Guests...

Aug 11 10:55:35 oms_apex_plaisir systemd[1]: libvirt-guests.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ it is like the service starts too early. When I restart the service everything is good and if I shutdown it sends the ACPI message correctly to my guests. I already seen lot of discussion but not able to find any working solution.. any idea to help me figure out the issue ? many thanks belette
