One of the things i dont like in essex.
That the "autostart" flag in nova.conf with KVM doesnt work with the
autostart feature of libvirt/kvm, so if, for some reason you need to
restart nova-compute to apply some kind of modification, the instances get
soft/hard rebooted because now nova-compute handles the "autostart" flag
from nova.conf

Why is that if some one can explain ?
