Re: [Xen-users] Xen 4.0.3 on Linux 2.6.32 failed to shutdown gracefully, but reboot instead

[John Mok <jmok@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

What I tried to do was to power down dom0 gracefully. The server 
rebooted instead of powered down and stayed off. When the server booted 
to the same kernel without multi-boot, the dom0 could be power down 
gracefully either with "shutdown now" or "poweroff" commands.
I used the lastest XenWindowsGplPV drivers 11.0.357 on Windows 2003/2008 
x64 and found no problem. The domU(s) responded to "xm shutdown" command 
and shutdown gracefully.
