There are a set of config options to choose what to do on various guest state transitions. I think these are probably what you're looking for. See the final bit of tools/example/xmexample1. Hmmm... Actually it may be that we unconditionally kill the domain if it ignores shutdown. If that is the case, we should instead force it into whatever the the target of the 'sm shutdown' command was, and then execute the action specified in the config file. We'd like a patch if this is the case. :-) -- Keir _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
