Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] 514532 Fix man page, most operation are synchronous

-Most B<virsh> commands act asynchronously, so just because the B<virsh> -program returned, doesn't mean the action is complete. This is -important, as many operations on domains, like create and shutdown, -can take considerable time (30 seconds or more) to bring the machine -into a fully compliant state. If you want to know when one of these -actions has finished you must poll through virsh list periodically. +Most B<virsh> commands act synchronously, except maybe shutdown +and domain creation. In those case the fact that the B<virsh> +program returned, may not mean the action is complete and you +must poll through virsh list periodically to detect that the +operation completed.
