[ovirt-users] It is possible to use vdsClient / virsh to start VMs in the event that engine is down?

Hello all, I do not see a way to start vm's in the event that an engine is down. I see vdsClient -s 0 destroy works to shut them down. Also, is it still possible to use non-read-only virsh commands? i tried using saslpasswd2 to create an account, but that did not seem to work. Thanks!
