mikedpitt420 Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 (edited) I replaced my cache drive, and forgot about a VM that was on there. I can still mount it and access the disk image, but where do I find the XML? Or what is the best way to restore the VM ? I still have the same flash drive, and access to anything that was stored on the cache drive including the disk image. Edited October 8, 2021 by mikedpitt420 Quote Link to comment
mikedpitt420 Posted October 8, 2021 Author Share Posted October 8, 2021 This was not entirely accurate. Let me try to start again. I think I started my VM service again, thus creating a new libvrt file. I have backups of my vdisk1.img file. When I try to create a new VM with my vdisk1.img file, it does load, but seems to be missing a bunch of data. Is this expected behavior? Quote Link to comment

Typically this would be in system share, which would typically be on cache. 3 hours ago, mikedpitt420 said: access to anything that was stored on the cache drive Quote Link to comment
mikedpitt420 Posted October 8, 2021 Author Share Posted October 8, 2021 (edited) I have tried recreating this VM with the old vdisk1.img and it either will not start at all, or it does with oddly missing data. Is there a setting in the creation that I am missing? tower-diagnostics-20211008-0036.zip Edited October 8, 2021 by mikedpitt420 Quote Link to comment
