Hi Antoine. I also have a hang problem when i use a cold stop on libvirt. No problem on VMWare ESX when i click on the "shutdown button".
On libvirt, when i click on this button the VM hang and then i need to kill the VM. (Archlinux kernel 3.11, but the problem was also present before. OpenBSD 5.3 VMs) -- Best regards, Loïc BLOT, UNIX systems, security and network engineer http://www.unix-experience.fr Le dimanche 20 octobre 2013 à 23:13 +0200, Antoine Jacoutot a écrit : > On Sun, Oct 20, 2013 at 12:36:14PM -0700, Bryan Vyhmeister wrote: > > On Wed, Oct 09, 2013 at 08:45:37PM +0200, Antoine Jacoutot wrote: > > > I personally use SmartOS and while it is an awesome system, OpenBSD > > > does not always behave perfectly well under Solaris KVM.
