| Seems like /etc/xen/auto doesn't like sxp format.
I'm a bit of a tard in that I like using virt-install to create my domUs, a no brainer in that I don't have to know much to create a config. I'd rather just tweak it after words.
In 3.4.1, virt-install creates domUs in the sxp format. Would you happen to know how I can force the new version of virt-install to create in the old format? On Oct 8, 2009, at 11:50 AM, Grant McWilliams wrote:

In the older format using Xen 3.0.3 (domains created via xm), I simply created a sym link from /etc/xen/domU config file to /etc/xen/auto.
I am now using virt-install (Xen 3.4.1) which creates the domU config in /var/lib/xend/domains/UUID_#_of_domU/config.sxp.
So I sym link this to a file in /etc/xen/auto/hostname_of_domU and noticed that no auto starting of the domU happens.
I've looked in both my Xen books and only find that /etc/xen/auto is the place to auto start domUs.
Any ideas on how to auto start gracefully while not writing a script in /etc/rc3.d every time a new domU comes on line?
And why are xm create and virt-install so diff in how they approach domU configs? This is confusing.

I just updated to 3.4.1 and autostart stopped working. I copied the xen domU file into /etc/xen/auto and it started working again. Xendomains kept complaining that my domU file was not valid. Start there.
