Another wrinkle to the question: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Starting_services_by_default documents that services must not be enabled by default if it is network-enabled, unless it has FESCo approval. libvirtd is network-enabled, since it can be configured to accept connections from the outside world; but its default configuration is useful without network configuration. Likewise, libvirt-guests is primarily useful for only local guests, but it can be argued that since it can connect to hypervisors over a network, it is network-enabled. Do we need to apply for FESCo exception on either of these two services? -- Eric Blake eblake@xxxxxxxxxx +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
