Hi Jatin,

Your guest will have a dirty shutdown… Probably not the best way to shutdown a guest… For the host and other guests, no worries.

Greetings,

Hi

I am using QEMU 0.12.1 as the hypervisor in my RHEL installation of 6.5.

I wanted to know if there are any side-effects with respect to VM image corruption when i use SIGTERM signal to kill a qemu-kvm process which effectively stops my VM running on the host.

Appreciate if you can provide me some valuable information in this regard.

Thanks Jatin
