I use the following 2 scripts to start VMs automatically when my AIO host reboots for whatever reason. The Python script was grabbed from somewhere on the net, I don't remember where anymore.

Can this be done? We hit a road block with gluster and will be using local storage while testing gluster. Only problem, if a host reboots, the vm's on that host do not. Is there a way to have ovirt/libvirt start all vm's residing on the local storage?
