>>> dom.create()

>>> dom.destroy()
>>> 0

>>> dom.create()
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 287, in create
if ret == -1: raise libvirtError ('virDomainCreate() failed', dom=self)
libvirt.libvirtError: Unknown failure

Every call to create will raise the same exception, It only works if I do a new connection to the 
hypervisor. Is there an workaround??
