That's all the more existing qemu support. qemu 2.3 is working on adding a feature of allowing hot-reordering of boot order so that a mere soft reset will pick up on things without resorting to a full power cycle, and if that works, libvirt should be taught to do likewise by adding commands for hot-editing the boot order in XML. But we're not there yet, so you are correct that for now a shutdown is the only way to pick up on boot order changes. > This e-mail and any attachments may contain information that is confidential > and proprietary This mailing list is publicly archived, rendering your disclaimer unenforceable.
