Hi Patrick, 

Yes, this is a production server. 

Thanks, 

Andrew

Hmm. I'm not sure. I'll keep thinking about it and let you know if I come up 
with any ideas! Is this a production environment?

Hi Patrick, 


My VM configuration contains those same entries:

A few months ago the configuration worked as expected - rebooting a machine 
would obey the directive in the config file and restart it, however that is no 
longer the case. What other information would be helpful in debugging this? 


Thanks!

Hey Andrew, 


Could you run the following? 


#virsh dumpxml <domain> 


The XML for one of my VMs contains some entries that look like the following: 



<on_poweroff>destroy</on_poweroff> 
<on_reboot>restart</on_reboot> 
<on_crash>restart</on_crash> 


What do yours look like?

Hello, 


I am using libvirt on Ubuntu 10.04 Server and the following versions of these 
packages: 
libvirt-bin, libvirt0, python-libvirt - 0.7.5-5ubuntu27.22 
qemu-kvm 0.12.3+noroms-0ubuntu9.18 


Recently, when restarting a VM (either by issuing "sudo reboot" on a Linux 
guest or choosing "Restart" from the Start Menu on a Windows guest) the VM 
shuts down and remains off rather than simply restarting. I cannot test "virsh 
restart <domain>" on this server as the version of libvirt does not appear to 
support restarting - see 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/368962 


I do not receive any errors in /var/log when the shutdown occurs. Powering the 
VM back on works, however I would prefer to have hot restart working so VMs 
that are automatically rebooted to install updates will come back up 
automatically. Do you have any suggestions on how to debug this behavior? 


Thanks, 


Andrew
