Additional info:

Comment 1 Radek Novacek 2014-07-30 08:44:11 UTC
libvirt on RHEL-5 doesn't have the state() method that is used on RHEL-6 and RHEL-7. However this information can be also obtained from info() method.

Comment 3 Radek Novacek 2014-08-04 12:27:49 UTC
Fixed in virt-who-0.9-6.el5.

Comment 5 Liushihui 2014-08-08 05:22:42 UTC
Verified on virt-who-0.9-6.el5
