walter,

thanks for d reply,

but how can i use it in a script.

this is my script to shutoff vms before the backup
----------------------------------

#stop VMS

$VMS = vm1 vm2 vm3... etc"
        echo "Bringing Down the VMs"
        
        for vms in $VMS
        do
                xm shutdown $vms
        done

        for vms in $VMS
        do
                echo -n -e "\t\t$vms : "
                #xm shutdown $vms
                #wait until shutdown or wait 1min
                COUNTER=0
                while [  $COUNTER -lt 60 ]; do
                        /////****here i wont to check whether the VM status, 
whether
runnig or shutoff
                        if [ its down]; then
                                echo "ITS Down"
                                break
                        fi
                        sleep 1
                        let COUNTER=COUNTER+1
                done

                /////****here again i wont to check whether the VM status, 
whether
runnig or shutoff
                if [ if its still runnig destroy ]; then
                        xm destroy $vms
                        sleep 3
                fi


so how can i check the vm status to use in this code...

any help is appreciated.
