*falls off the chair*

Ok...

Yes, it is. And yes it is working. Then, 2 questions from
that point

- Why once the system automatically reboots that I don't
have my server in the list in the GUI.
- Using the GUI (and the GUI only), how can I make sure the
server is restarted and stays in the list?

Thank you for these.
Michel

That operation is for restoring from a saved state file,
which is not 
the same as the vm image file.  See the man page for xm for
the 
difference between 'restore' and 'create'.

The following has been suggested at least twice now, have
you tried it 
yet?  (I overlooked it initially as well, because 'create'
seems like 
the wrong word for this operation, think of it as 'boot' or
'start'.)

xm create /etc/xen/<name of vm>

You'll need to copy or create a symlink in /etc/xen/auto/ to
the 
config file /etc/xen/<name of vm> for the vm to be
started on reboot 
of the host.  Note that if you have more than one, the vm's
start one 
after another, so it can take awhile for them all to come
up.

Excellent question, one I've asked about here previously. 
It does not 
appear possible to start a vm from the gui?!

And if you don't have dhcp available, it's not practical to
use the 
gui to create vm's either ('create' in the sense of
initially create 
the vm, not start it up).
