I am trying to use the command line to stop and start vms in ovirt 4.4. Previously, I used virsh on the standalone engine machine, but that has been removed in this release.
On the compute host, I am able to use virsh to list vms, and shutdown vms from that list. The start command gives me this error:
virsh # start r7-dante error: failed to get domain 'r7-dante'
I have also tried to use curl with the restapi from the standalone engine. I have not been able to find examples of how to stop and start vms. Here is an example of my list of vms...
curl --cacert '/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/ctg.crt' --request GET --header 'Version: 4' --header 'Accept: application/xml' --user 'admin@internal:psw' https://bacchus.neworleans.com/ovirt-engine/api/vms
Can anyone help me with this?
Thank you. Regards
