I upgraded f38->f40 but left the vm saved rather than shutdown (my bad but here we
are)
Attempting to restore the vm with 'virsh restore
/data1/VMs/libvirt/images/e4.saved' I get:
error: Failed to restore domain from /data1/VMs/libvirt/images/e4.saved

Then, trying to resume from the "virtual Machine Manager" UI gets the message:

I searched for a solution and most say to fiddle with some settings and reboot. I cannot
reboot, I want to resume (unpause).
How can I restore the vm without crashing it (throwing away the saved memory), if it even
boots this way?
TIA
