Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

Re: starting a vm with virt-manager: msg#00137

Subject: Re: starting a vm with virt-manager

Hi Henning,

   currently virt-manager does not offer a 'Start' option for VMs .
virt-manager will provide full life-cycle support over time , including 'start' of VMs
   in a future release of virt-manager .

Right now you'll have to start a VM manually using "xm create (-c) VMname" . The "restore" option in virt-manager is part of the save/restore capabilities
   in virt-manager/Xen . Save/Restore allows you to save/snapshot a VM's
memory footprint onto disk and 'restore/restart' the VM from this snapshot
   in the future.

Hth,

- Jan

Hi,
Somehow I'd expect such a nice graphical tool as virt.manager, that,
if I can install, (and start the installed machine directly after
install), stop, restore, and do all the other nice things with a xen
vm, I must also be able to simply start a vm for which I have a config
lying around.

But I see nowhere any "start a vm" option. The only thing that is
there is a "restore vm" option, but when I chose a normal vm config
file, it always says "error restring domain - is the domain already
running".
I assume, this function is really only for domains that I saved (not
the same as  opposed to shut down, at leat in xen terminology).

Is that right? Am I right that virt.manager has no functionality to
simply start a vm with it's config file, and I must do this manually?
