How to Auto-Start a Guest VM in Oracle VM

How I can to do to auto start multiples virtual machines on Oracle VM Manager - Version: 3.4.1.1369 when the servers are restarted?

I have this reference only: ln -s /OVS/Repositories/0004fb00000300001090529d270723d2/VirtualMachines/0004fb0000060000d6e4f692a01b0046/vm.cfg /etc/xen/auto/0004fb0000060000d6e4f692a01b0046

but the issue is that I don't have the /etc/xen/auto directory...

/etc/xen/auto directory is available on Oracle VM Server, not Manager.

Hi Mario,

the autostart feature in OVMM only gets activated, once you have configured a clustered server pool. If you only have a standalone OVS with local repositories, autostart will not be avaiable.

However, I think that you can manually create these Xen autostart files, as this is usually what the ovs-agent is doing anyway.

Cheers,

Hi.

I've done this in my pool with 2 standalone servers. All I had to do was to create symbolic links in the respective VM Server  pointing correctly to the intended vm.cfg file.
