I did it and still did'nt get the 2 VMs starting. So I activate again 
autostart, in that order:

virsh --connect qemu:///system net-autostart MyNetwork
virsh --connect qemu:///system autostart Domain1
virsh --connect qemu:///system autostart Domain2
virsh --connect qemu:///system autostart Domain3

and now all is OK.

Thanks for your support
