Hello, I am using ovirt 4.3.8. I want to use the virsh command to boot the shutdown
virtual machine, but when using virsh list --all and virsh list --state-shutoff, the
shutdown virtual machine did not display in the list. What is the cause of this, and how
can I display the shutdown virtual machine.
You can't.
All oVirt-managed VMs are, in libvirt terms, transient. The meta-data
about them is kept in the engine's database, not in libvirt.
If you want this to plan for (or already are in) a case where the
engine is dead/unavailable, then you should make sure you keep regular
engine backups, so that you can restore it, and/or check about DR.
Best regards,
virsh # list --all
