[Xen-devel] Re: Graceful shutdown of a virtual domain

[stevegt@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]

(Answering my own shutdown question...)

Just did a clone of the latest 1.2 (I was on 1.2-rc), and found the new
tools/examples/xc_dom_control.py.  From the README:


    xc_dom_control.py
     - general tool for controling running domains
       Usage: xc_dom_control.py [command] <params>
            stop [dom]         -- pause a domain
            start [dom]        -- un-pause a domain
            shutdown [dom]     -- request a domain to shutdown
            destroy [dom]      -- immediately terminate a domain
            pincpu [dom] [cpu] -- pin a domain to the specified CPU
            list               -- print info about all domains
            listvbds           -- print info about all virtual block devs
            ... more to follow... e.g.
               control CPU scheduling parameters
               control network scheduling parameters
               control vif rules



Fantastic!  Thanks all,

Steve
