Hi, Libvirt-cim marks a VM suspended if it is either shutoff (VIR_DOMAIN_SHUTOFF) or crashed (VIR_DOMAIN_CRASHED) and a snapshot image is saved. A domain is marked dormant when it is blocked (VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCKED) or paused (VIR_DOMAIN_PAUSED). Regards, Sharad Mishra

For KVM, is there any difference between a virtual machine with an operating status of dormant vs suspended, in terms of what functionality is available to run against the virtual machine? It seems as if dormant is the same as suspended, but I haven't read any documentation which specifically indicates such....

Thanks
