[libvirt-users] Unable to shutdown/reboot a SLES 10 SP4 VM

[Padma Narwankar]

Hello,
I am unable to do a graceful shutdown or reboot  of SLES 10 SP4 virtual machines (Kernel version: 2.6.16.60-0.85.1-default) with  virsh shutdown or virsh reboot commands. (e.g  virsh shutdown "vmname" ). On issuing these commands there is no impact on the VM. Also unable to perform the shutdown or reboot operations from the menu options available on the console when accessing the VM via the virt-manager.

The virsh shutdown/reboot commands and the shutdown/reboot menu operations work fine for SLES 11 SP2 VMs.

I've verified that the acpi daemon is running with the SLES 10 SP4 VM
linux-kb8x:~ # ps aux | grep acpi
root         8  0.0  0.0      0     0 ?        S<   16:27   0:00 [kacpid]
root         9  0.0  0.0      0     0 ?        S<   16:27   0:00 [kacpi_notify]
root      1830  0.0  0.0   2688   528 ?        Ss   16:27   0:00 /sbin/acpid

Is there any other process that needs to running for these operations to work or is there a known issue with SLES 10 SP4?

Thanks,
Padmaja
