Apparently, libvirtd is not running by the time libvirt-guests is started, despite the fact that the unit file for the former contains Before=libvirt-guests.service and the one for the latter contains After=libvirtd.service That should be more than enough to ensure the proper ordering is followed when starting / stopping the services. Is the libvirtd service enabled at all? Are there any startup errors / warnings? Does the libvirt-guests service actually bring up the guests that were running before shutdown when you start it a second time? -- Andrea Bolognani / Red Hat / Virtualization _______________________________________________ libvirt-users mailing list libvirt-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvirt-users
