Hi, I've noticed that libvirt seems to report crashed domains as shutoff. Here's an example: [root@XXXXX ~]# virsh list Id Name State ---------------------------------- 0 Domain-0 running 27 test03 blocked 34 test01 shut off 36 onetwentyeight blocked [root@XXXXX ~]# xm list Name ID Mem(MiB) VCPUs State Time(s) Domain-0 0 356 1 r----- 3655.4 onetwentyeight 36 128 1 -b---- 16.7 test01 34 256 1 ----c- 7.4 test03 27 256 1 -b---- 231.7 The reason is because xen_internal.c does not interpret the additional shutdown flags when it checks the domain's state. Attached is a patch which correctly checks these flags and reports the crashed state. I wasn't sure of the best way to react to the other shutdown flags, so I just defaulted to "SHUTOFF" for everything else. Pete
