Hi, I have a virtual machine defined by xml that start from pxe (network boot), my problem is that sometimes the dhcp server is not ready when the virtual machine try to boot. I need that the virtual machine keep asking for dhcp (network reboot) many times, until dhcp is ready and can start the virtual machine with a valid ip. How can I configure that in the xml file?

Hi, I am not using quemu, i am using XEN, is there any option to allow me to do that? In the libvirt documentation specify that those options are only available on quemu.
