Forcing System VMs to respawn

Is there a way to get the system VMs to respawn.  From what I understand, they are supposed to respawn when they are needed.  Even after stopping them, they weren't releasing the Public IPs so I had to kill them off (had to reconfigure the networks).  So now that I've gone through and fixed my networks and re-enabled everything (Zone, pod, cluster, hosts, etc) I was expecting them to start back up with no luck.  Anyway to force this to happen?

Thanks,
Caleb

Hi,

You can destroy your system VM (SSVM,CPVM) the same way you destroy a user VM instance.
The system will automatically create a new one when the previous one was destroyed, with a new IP (I believe).
