If virsh list doesn't show anything that means that the
VM crashed soon after boot on the VM host.  Look at the libvirt
logs on the VM host.  If you have access to virt-manager
or some other way to see a vm console, try to do a onevm restart <vmid>
and see if you can get the console up fast enough to see where it died.
