Since the end goal is the same (the guest is shut off either way), it is a good idea to write your scripts to be robust to this particular race. That said, if your guest isn't specifically requesting a shutdown, it seems odd that you are encountering a race, so there may be something else at play here. Does the log of the guest give any particular hints? </pre> </blockquote> <blockquote cite="mid:4FA80EF4.7090606@redhat.com" type="cite"> </blockquote> The guest log seems good, just repeating like this: 2012-05-07 02:39:10.779+0000: starting up LC_ALL=C PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=none /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -S -M pc-0.14 -enable-kvm -m 512 -smp 1,sockets=1,cores=1,threads=1 -name david_mac -uuid 81867c03-abd4-4131-91f6-2fe57795df7c -nodefconfig -nodefaults -chardev socket,id=charmonitor,path=//var/lib/libvirt/qemu/david_mac.monitor,server,nowait -mon chardev=charmonitor,id=monitor,mode=readline -rtc base=utc -boot order=dc,menu=on -device piix3-usb-uhci,id=usb,bus=pci.0,addr=0x1.0x2 -device lsi,id=scsi0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x5 -drive file=/home/default_libvirt_pool/fc12qcow2.img,if=none,id=drive-scsi0-0-0,boot=on,format=qcow2 -device scsi-disk,bus=scsi0.0,scsi-id=0,drive=drive-scsi0-0-0,id=scsi0-0-0 -drive file=/home/vmm/isoImage/fc12.iso,if=none,media=cdrom,id=drive-ide0-0-0,readonly=on,format=raw -device ide-drive,bus=ide.0,unit=0,drive=drive-ide0-0-0,id=ide0-0-0 -netdev tap,fd=26,id=hostnet0 -device rtl8139,netdev=hostnet0,id=net0,mac=52:54:00:00:00:05,bus=pci.0,addr=0x3 -chardev pty,id=charserial0 -device isa-serial,chardev=charserial0,id=serial0 -vnc 0.0.0.0:0 -k en-us -vga cirrus -device virtio-balloon-pci,id=balloon0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x4 Domain id=92 is tainted: high-privileges char device redirected to /dev/pts/4 2012-05-07 02:39:12.798+0000: shutting down but the libvirtd.log always prints: 2012-05-07 02:39:09.535+0000: 4118: error : qemuMonitorIO:560 : internal error End of file from monitor 2012-05-07 02:39:10.779+0000: 4121: warning : qemuDomainObjTaint:1134 : Domain id=92 name='david_mac' uuid=81867c03-abd4-4131-91f6-2fe57795df7c is tainted: high-privileges </body> </html>
