Is there any way to interface with virsh to keep it from executing a startup operation? Sort of like the /etc/nologin (man page nologin(5)) mechanism? Basically, I want to be able to shut down a VM in order to copy its disk images, and be reasonably assured that it won't be started before I'm finished. Is there any sort of hook or interlock file or other mechanism to accomplish this?
