Hello,

A domain created with "xm create" is created, runs but is not
"catalogued" so the machine can't even start !
If you want "persistent" domains you have to create them with the
"xm new " command. So the machine are registered and should start with
"xm start".
When the machines are OK, you copy their description files to
"/etc/xen/auto" if you want then start at boot. But I don't like that
solution (with /etc/xen/auto) as the start is often a little bit to
early eg : NFS or Iscsi mounts are not OK ...
I prefer to do a start mith my own script when all the machine is
started (start NFS and Iscsi at init level 3) and I start the machines
at init level 5.

Regards

JP Pozzi
