Xen devel - Nov 2008 - xen 3.3 - windows shutdown domain not being destroyed

When I shutdown or reboot a windows DomU under Xen 3.3, it just hangs at
the point where it would normally turn off or reboot.

The funny thing is, when the DomU is in this state, if I try to ''xm
create'' the domain again, it completes the shutdown or reboot (and
tells
me that the DomU already exists).

Is this a known problem and is it fixed in hg?

Thanks

James

Haven''t heard of it before. I might give it a try.

I''ve got -testing ready to run so I''ll test first and let you
know if
it''s fixed there.

The problem still exists when I just tested 3.3-testing.hg (latest pull
was a few hours ago).

Actually, it does eventually complete the shutdown or reboot on its own.
I''m probably not being patient enough, but certainly in 3.2.1 it was
much quicker, it never noticeably stuck around with a frozen mouse after
the shutdown.

Did you ever get a chance to look at this?
