[libvirt-users] start and stop a VMware VM using libvirt API

[Abbas]

Yes, that seems to be correct.

 >> The libvirt VMware ESX driver can manage VMware ESX/ESXi 3.5/4.x and 
VMware GSX 2.0, also called VMware Server 2.0, and possibly later 
versions. Since 0.8.3 the driver can also connect to a VMware vCenter 
2.5/4.x (VPX).
