[one-users] [Help] How to reboot a VM when the VM crashes?

[Hutson Betts]

So there are conditions in which a VM becomes un-recoverable without
permanent data loss. Hmm...

Well, hopefully the VM life-cycle can be modified to support restarts
with disk image persistence (Persistence in the $VMID folder, NOT the
image repository), and extend it to OCCI.
