[Users] Issues starting hosted engine VM

[Dafna Ron]

the question is what was the vm paused on... this can be found in the 
qemu vm log.
if the vm is paused it will not be auto started - so I am not sure what 
you expect to change? virsh requires authentication regardless to hosted 
engine :)
Leonid, did you do any testing there?
