While some hypervisors like Xen (Look at _shutdown method in nova/virt/xenapi/vmops.py) seem to have shutdown functionality, for "libvirt_type=kvm" - there is no separate shutdown/stop. (Probably that’s why) compute manager calls "self.driver.destroy" from _shutdown_instance() method - Look at nova/compute/manager.py if interested. Hope this helps. -Mandar ______________________________________________________________________ Disclaimer:This email and any attachments are sent in strictest confidence for the sole use of the addressee and may contain legally privileged, confidential, and proprietary data.
