      @dustinb3403 usually, the problem is the LV not mounted at boot time. Check your fstab, try to mount the LV manually etc.

        This is what I've got.

          I've just added

          /home/user.name/vm-storage/ defaults 1 1
          

          to fstab, should that do?

          And actually looking in the existing directories that I was going to use, nothing was there. .

            Is your new storage set to autostart on boot?
            Check the connection details for storage.

              @black3dynamite at the VM level or host?

                  This is my first swing at kvm so treat me like a toddler.

                  I would assume if I create a file using virtmanager that it stays between hosts reboots...

                      What do you have set up for your storage?
                      The state status should be active and autostart on boot enabled.

                        Why didn't you set this up before you installed Fedora using custom partitioning?

                        Now, why aren't you fixing it via Cockpit?

                          @black3dynamite It is, and was set to that as well.

                            Did you create the vm under qemu:///system or qemu:///session (user session)?
