+SYNOPSIS
+========
+
+``libvirt-guests`` *COMMAND*
+
+
+DESCRIPTION
+===========
+
+``libvirt-guests`` is a service that can be used to coordinate guest and host
+lifecyle actions. By default, ``libvirt-guests`` will suspend running guests
+when the host shuts down, and restore them to their pre-shutdown state when
+the host reboots.
+
+``libvirt-guests`` is typically under control of systemd. When
+``libvirt-guests.service`` is enabled, systemd will call ``libvirt-guests``
+with the ``start`` *COMMAND* when the host boots. Conversely, systemd will call
+``libvirt-guests`` with the ``stop`` *COMMAND* when the host shuts down.
+
+``libvirt-guests`` can be used directly. In addition to the ``start`` and
+``stop`` *COMMAND*\s, it also supports ``status``, ``restart``, ``condrestart``,
+``try-restart``, ``reload``, ``force-reload``, ``gueststatus``, and
+``shutdown`` *COMMAND*\s.
+
+
+FILES
+=====
+
+``libvirt-guests`` defines several variables to control service behavior.
+The default vaule of these variables can be overridden in:
+
+* ``@SYSCONFDIR@/sysconfig/libvirt-guests``
+
+The following variables are supported:
+
+- URIS=default
+
+ URIs to check for running guests. Example:
+ ``URIS='default xen:///system xen+tcp://host/system lxc:///system'``
+
+- ON_BOOT=start
+
+ Action taken on host boot
+
+ * start
+
+ All guests which were running on shutdown are started on boot regardless
+ of their autostart settings
+
+ * ignore
+
+ ``libvirt-guests`` won't start any guest on boot, however, guests marked
+ as autostart will still be automatically started by libvirtd
+
+- START_DELAY=0
+
+ Number of seconds to wait between each guest start. Set to 0 to allow parallel
+ startup.
+
+- ON_SHUTDOWN=suspend
+
+ Action taken on host shutdown
+
+ * suspend
+
+ All running guests are suspended using virsh managedsave
+
+ * shutdown
+
+ All running guests are asked to shutdown. Please be careful with this
+ settings since there is no way to distinguish between a guest which is
+ stuck or ignores shutdown requests and a guest which just needs a long
+ time to shutdown. When setting ON_SHUTDOWN=shutdown, you must also set
+ SHUTDOWN_TIMEOUT to a value suitable for your guests.
+
+- PARALLEL_SHUTDOWN=0
+
+ Number of guests will be shutdown concurrently, taking effect when
+ "ON_SHUTDOWN" is set to "shutdown". If Set to 0, guests will be shutdown one
+ after another. Number of guests on shutdown at any time will not exceed number
+ set in this variable.
+
+- SHUTDOWN_TIMEOUT=300
+
+ Number of seconds we're willing to wait for a guest to shut down. If parallel
+ shutdown is enabled, this timeout applies as a timeout for shutting down all
+ guests on a single URI defined in the variable URIS. If this is 0, then there
+ is no time out (use with caution, as guests might not respond to a shutdown
+ request). The default value is 300 seconds (5 minutes).
+
+- BYPASS_CACHE=0
+
+ If non-zero, try to bypass the file system cache when saving and
+ restoring guests, even though this may give slower operation for
+ some file systems.
+
+- SYNC_TIME=0
+
+ If non-zero, try to sync guest time on domain resume. Be aware, that
+ this requires guest agent with support for time synchronization
+ running in the guest. By default, this functionality is turned off.
+
+
