That's the normal behaviour, VMs in DONE state are not listed. However, you
can still see the extended information using 'onevm show <id>', because they
are stored in the DB for accounting purposes.

Are you using the Image Repository [1]? If so, is the Image persistent?
If you are defining the DISKs in the VM templates as in previous versions,
make sure the attribute SAVE=YES is present.
