I've been playing around with virt-manager. Set up a single vm and enabled autostart, then rebooted the host to test it. It does work, but I can no longer use virt-manager. virt-viewer works, though. 22:17:04,529 (cli:71): virt-manager startup 2012-02-02 22:17:04,530 (virt-manager:292): Launched as: /usr/share/virt-manager/virt-manager.py --debug --no-dbus 2012-02-02 22:17:04,530 (virt-manager:293): GTK version: (2, 18, 9) 2012-02-02 22:17:04,530 (virt-manager:294): virtManager import: <module 'virtManager' from '/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/__init__.pyc'> 2012-02-02 22:17:04,662 (virt-manager:390): Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash.

The only references to this problem I could find were old and unanswered posts to Fedora lists. _______________________________________________ CentOS-virt mailing list CentOS-virt@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-virt
