XenServer - All VM's off?

I'm not assuming he does, I'm just putting the information out there that the Xen Teams have it disabled by default and the reasoning behind it.
Ah, but if HA is not normally recommended, which is should not be in the SMB, then having them on by default would be the recommended. So it's not that it isn't a best practice to have it on. They are just defaulting for a different use case and customer type.

You can set VMs to run at boot too. That doesn't solve the issue but it could alleviate some downtime.
Setting them to start at boot breaks HA and isn't recommended.
Right, HA would be a separate mechanism to handle this. In this case it sounds like it may be a lab server so HA isn't necessary. Although that is good info if I do work in an HA setup.
