I found, though the VM is in shut-off state, when I use the function virDomainGetInfo(); I get state as running. Could you please let me know what wrong I am doing. To know the actual VM state I used 'virsh list' and it clearly shows the VM is in shut-off state. Please find the log and code snippet below. Log from virsh: ================= [host:~]$ virsh list --all Id Name State ---------------------------------------------------- 1 calvados running 2 LCXR running 3 default-sdr--1 running - test--2 shut off Out put: ========= 04.03.06.698923264:INFO: vm_libvirt_state_to_vmm_state: state returned is 1 Note : Here 1 is actually running. Code snippet: =============== enum cidl_vmm_vm_state vm_libvirt_state_to_vmm_state(unsigned char libvirt_state) { enum cidl_vmm_vm_state state; INFO("%s: state returned is %u\n",__FUNCTION__, libvirt_state); <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< if (libvirt_state == VIR_DOMAIN_RUNNING) { state = cidl_vm_state_running; } else if ((libvirt_state == VIR_DOMAIN_PAUSED) || (libvirt_state == VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCKED)) { state = cidl_vm_state_paused; } else if (libvirt_state == VIR_DOMAIN_SHUTOFF) { state = cidl_vm_state_defined; } else { state = cidl_vm_state_not_defined; } return state; } virDomainInfo res_util; virDomainPtr dom = virDomainLookupByName(virt, private_names[vm_idx]); res = virDomainGetInfo(dom, &res_util); vminfo[vm_idx].vm_state = vm_libvirt_state_to_vmm_state(res_util.state); Regards Ritesh Sharma
