Description Daniel Berrangé 2009-06-19 11:12:26 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #503184 +++

Description of problem:
libvirt uses a 'system_shutdown' command for a controlled guest shutdown (ie run initscript to shutdown, and then poweroff).

We would like to have the same functionality available, but doing a restart instead of poweroff. 

ie this patch adding a system_reboot command

We should ping upstream about this, hopefully it should be in 0.11

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 11 development cycle.
Changing version to '11'.

Comment 1 Mark McLoughlin 2009-07-09 07:32:19 UTC

This isn't reasonable for 5.4 since it isn't agreed upstream yet:

  http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2009-07/threads.html#00507

Moving to 5.5

Comment 2 Markus Armbruster 2009-12-14 14:00:44 UTC

Punted up to libvirt (bug #495479), because upstream qemu rejected the feature.  See bug#495479 comment#3 for details.
