My problem also affects F8 domUs. I've noticed, it seems, if I use xm commands to shutdown and startup then virt-manager retains track of the domU. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=453276 The last 2 libvirt updates have not been built for F8, so I'm not sure if there is any progress on the issue. https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2008-September/msg00401.html I'm not interested in switching to CentOS or RHEL until I'm "forced" by circumstances or rationality. I'd prefer to support Fedora. Theoretically F8 still gets updates until around Dec, 25 2008 right now. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Schedule#Fedora_10_Release_Schedule There is a lot of impressive work going on with libvirt and virt in general from RedHat/Fedora, so I'm trying to be patient. I have a tenable workaround for now. Fingers crossed for F10. -- Dale Bewley - Unix Administrator - Shields Library - UC Davis GPG: 0xB098A0F3 0D5A 9AEB 43F4 F84C 7EFD 1753 064D 2583 B098 A0F3 -- Fedora-xen mailing list Fedora-xen@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-xen
