24.1. Automatically starting guests
This section covers how to make virtualized guests start automatically during the host system's boot phase.
This example uses virsh
to set a guest, TestServer
, to automatically start when the host boots.
# virsh autostart TestServer
Domain TestServer marked as autostarted
The guest now automatically starts with the host.
To stop a guest automatically booting use the --disable
parameter
# virsh autostart --disable TestServer
Domain TestServer unmarked as autostarted
The guest no longer automatically starts with the host.
