virsh-pool-autostart

virsh pool-autostart pool [options]

virsh pool-autostart configures whether a libvirt storage pool starts automatically with the libvirt daemon. When enabled, the pool becomes active at daemon startup; disabling it requires manual start via `virsh pool-start`. The setting is persisted in the pool's XML definition.

--disable

Disable autostart.

Only applies to persistent pools. Transient pools cannot be marked for autostart.
