Its normal they don't show as running. the running flag is only set if the
domain has ownership of a CPU just in that moment. If you run xen on a single
CPU system, no domU can ever show as running, as the cpu is obviously
currently in dom0, producing the xm top output.
"blocked" means: that domain is waiting for some IO to complete, that is, it
just passed a network packet / hdd request to the backend drivers and is
waiting for the answer.
to test the shutdown:
attach to the console with "xm console ...", then issue the xm shutdown from
another shell to see if it really does skip the shutdown process.
