There have been several instances of people having problems with a broken managed save file, and not aware that they could use 'virsh managedsave-remove dom' to fix things. Making it possible to do this as part of starting a domain makes the same functionality easier to find, and one less API call. * include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in (VIR_DOMAIN_START_FORCE_BOOT): New flag. * src/libvirt.c (virDomainCreateWithFlags): Document it. * src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainObjStart): Alter signature. (qemuAutostartDomain, qemuDomainStartWithFlags): Update callers. * tools/virsh.c (cmdStart): Expose it in virsh. * tools/virsh.pod (start): Document it.
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
