so the vm is likely not deleted the harddisk and the libvirt domain will still be defiend. my guess is starting the
vm cause the oom reaper to kill the qemu process when it was relaunched.

if you are deploying with memory over subsription enabled you should configre enough swap space equal to total
memory* ram_allocation_ratio. 

if you do that you you should be able to start the vm. now the other option is while the vm is stopped you can
cold migrate it to another host and then start it there.
