From: Li Yang <liyang.fnst(a)cn.fujitsu.com&gt; For now 'virsh quit' action like this: -------------------------------- [root@localhost /]# virsh quit [root@localhost /]# -------------------------------- And 'virsh exit' action: -------------------------------- [root@localhost /]# virsh exit [root@localhost /]# -------------------------------- There is a small difference('/n') between them. According to manual said: quit, exit quit this interactive terminal And in the code they all called cmdQuit func, They should get same actions.
