Thread-topic: sysrq/shutdown in xen 3.1 + centos5 HVM guest

Hello!

Xen Host: Centos5 x86_64 + Compiled Sources 3.1.
        [root@s12 ~]# uname -a
        Linux s12 2.6.18-xen #1 SMP Mon May 28 17:30:17 CEST 2007 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Guest: Centos5 x86_64, HVM
        [root@vs01 ~]# more /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq
        1

[root@s12 ~]# xm list
Name                                      ID   Mem VCPUs      State   Time(s)
Domain-0                                   0  1985     8     r-----  29241.8
vs01                                      22  2000     4     r-----    224.2

A Alt-SysRQ-s on the VNC console gives an
        Jun  8 16:42:08 vs01 kernel: SysRq: Emergency Sync
        Jun  8 16:42:08 vs01 kernel: Emergency Sync complete
in the syslog + console output.

Doing a
        [root@s12 ~]# xm sysrq vs01 s
does nothing in the VM.

***

Also strange: Doing a "xm shutdown vs01" just terminates the VM. No orderly shutdown on the VNC console….

I looked through a lot of docs so far, all telling me, that xm shutdown should do a shutdown like a "shutdown" in the Guest, and sysrq should work as well.

Have I missed a setting in the domain.cfg? I have played with on_shutdown a lot already -> same all time.
