It means that we query xcnd and there is no domain/state part of the
sexpr for the domain.
What does 'xm list --long' say?
[ libvirt 0.4.0; I just subscribed to the list so it might take a bit for
traffic to flow to me. ]
When the problem occurs, the state line in xm list --long is:
(state ------)
And in the 'xm list' it looks like this:
Name ID Mem VCPUs State Time(s)
abc2 27 512 1 ------ 9.9
It's an XP domain, and this happens while it's booting up.
