shutdown vm but enabled to autostart on boot
Having recently been bitten by this in an ugly way I hacked up this quick func script to check for this sort of nonsense. I could do it more trivially but I need some minion-side changes to make it easier:
http://skvidal.fedorapeople.org/misc/auto-enabled-but-shutdown.py
run this on your hosts, It will only hit hosts which have virtd/xen active on the system and then it will query them for the hosts. It will report if a vm is shutdown currently but is set to autostart on boot. If none are that way then it will output nothing.
I’ve pushed the minion-side changes out to upstream func and I’ll test out a new version of this which does it the opposite way, too: running, but not set to autostart on boot.
