Hi all! First, some details... Xen Debian packages: linux-image-2.6.18-6-xen-686 linux-modules-2.6.18-6-xen-686 xen-hypervisor-3.0.3-1-i386-pae xen-ioemu-3.0.3-1 xen-linux-system-2.6.18-6-xen-686 xen-tools xen-utils-3.0.3-1 xen-utils-common My problem is when I try to shutdown a domU with "xm shutdown <domID>", the VM doest not shutdown correctly, it just hang and when I start it again Windows complain about incorrect shutdown. Is that normal? I was expecting that windows(and/or)linux grabs a shutdown signal and start the shutdown process, but it does not happen. Do I have to install some ACPI drivers or something like that? Here it goes my conf: kernel = ''/usr/lib/xen-3.0.3-1/boot/hvmloader'' builder = ''hvm'' memory = ''512'' device_model=''/usr/lib/xen-3.0.3-1/bin/qemu-dm'' disk = [ ''phy:/dev/sda5,ioemu:hda,w'',''file:/root/Xenteste/2003.iso,ioemu:hdc:cdrom,r'' ] name = ''win02'' vif = [''type=ioemu, bridge=eth0''] boot=''d'' sdl=0 vnc = 1 vncunused = 1 vnclisten = ''0.0.0.0'' acpi = 1 apic = 1 on_poweroff = ''destroy'' on_reboot = ''restart'' on_crash = ''restart'' Thanks for the help.

Is that normal?Windows needs someway to know its being shutdown. James'' PV Drivers install a service to support this. http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenWindowsGplPv>I was expecting that windows(and/or)linux grabs a shutdown signal and >start the shutdown process, but it does not happen.hvm''s don''t know they are being shutdown on their own like pvm''s do. Shame the hardware doesn''t announce the shutdown, like simulating a button push on the power switch. I don''t know the details surrounding why this isn''t the case, but that is how it is... jlc _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Is there something like "shutdownmon" for Linux domUs?

Check to see if the service starts and runs...>Is there something like "shutdownmon" for Linux domUs? > >Thanks.I am not aware of anything, but that *doesn''t* mean anything, I have actually never had to run a Linux hvm so I don''t know.
