Try passing --no-reboot to virt-install.
host : % virsh shutdown test02 (nothing happens, guest still shown)
If the guest OS is fully booted up at this point, you should be able to initiate a clean shutdown from the host. If that doesn't work, make sure your VM configuration contains <domain> ... <features> <acpi/> </features> ... <on_poweroff>destroy</on_poweroff> ... </domain> and that there is some software running in the guest that will process the ACPI event appropriately. systemd will usually take care of that part. -- Andrea Bolognani / Red Hat / Virtualization
