February 24, 201412 yr I wanted to take a moment to discuss an issue I noticed while troubleshooting something completely different with one of my domu's. The issue is simple. If I reboot my dom0, my pfsense domu reboots, but it is not accessible. It plain does not have a network connection in or out. I need to reboot the vm and then everything is fine. My thought is that this is a result of not having the following variables defined. on_poweroff = 'destroy' on_reboot = 'restart' I have a Arch domu and it works just fine when the dom0 reboots, so my only thought is that I am missing/not understanding these options. Are these talking about what to do when the dom0 reboots or turns off? So if the dom0 is shut down, destroy the domain and if it is rebooted, restart it. What is the behavior if nothing is defined? Is it saving the system and just putting it back, at which time the pass-through NICs are not connected, so the network connections just fail until rebooted again? This is what I think and I know it is a simple test to add these lines and reboot, but I thought to just ask and be sure. This way it is also documented for the next guy thats curious.
