Hi,
A VM in the SHUTDOWN state is waiting for the OS to gracefully shutdown.
The VM life-cycle ends when the VM reaches the DONE state.
To boot the same guest machine again, just create another instance of its
template (onetemplate instantiate).
More information on the VM life-cycle:

When I shutdown a VM in Sunstone, the state of that machine is shutdown.
What's the purpose of this operation? I mean when a VM is shutdown, user
can do nothing to that VM ,except delete, saveas or resubmit that machine.
I cannot boot that VM again. It seems a shutdown VM is useless.
