Re: [Xen-users] /etc/xen/auto - corrected

[Brian Krusic <brian@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I am sending this incase any one else is as retarded as I (I'm sure  
there are a few).
I read the /etc/sysconfig/xendomains script and modified some  
variables so that shutdown was shutdown and startup was startup.
The script is very verbose and easy to follow and subsequently, solved  
my problems startup/shutdown issues.
There does seem to be some kind of bug when saving a domains state but  
thats for some one else to figure out.
Once I was able to have my domUs truly shutdown, my issues went away.
