libvirt users - Jan 2011 - autostarting storage pool

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hello everyone,

How do I make storage pool auto start?

I have:

virsh # pool-list
Name                 State      Autostart
- -----------------------------------------
default              active     yes
virtimages           active     no


I don't see anything in pool's xml that could suit this purpose:

virsh # pool-dumpxml virtimages
<pool type='dir'>
  <name>virtimages</name>
  <uuid>6294915e-7b48-e610-7e46-d771c2e376a3</uuid>
  <capacity>84551581696</capacity>
  <allocation>192811008</allocation>
  <available>84358770688</available>
  <source>
  </source>
  <target>
    <path>/vms</path>
    <permissions>
      <mode>0700</mode>
      <owner>-1</owner>
      <group>-1</group>
    </permissions>
  </target>
</pool>

That's expected because autostart isn't configured in the XML config.

See the virsh pool-autostart command for this.
