RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.277.el6.x86_64
kernel-2.6.32-262.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.# service libvirtd stop
Stopping libvirtd daemon: [ OK ]

2.# service libvirt-guests status
started

3.# service libvirt-guests stop
Can't connect to default. Skipping.

4.# service libvirt-guests status
stopped, with saved guests

5.# ll /var/lib/libvirt/qemu/save

Patch committed to upstream.

commit c086af6b9b2296e2ab45e571f0fdfca097f7f127
Author: Osier Yang <jyang>
Date:   Tue May 15 16:22:28 2012 +0800

    libvirt-guests: Remove LISTFILE if it's empty when stopping service
    
    $LISTFILE is created even no domain is running, and the empty
    $LISTFILE could cause improper service status.
    
        stopped ,with saved guests
    
    Which is not right, as there is no domain was saved.
Comment 3 Osier Yang 2012-05-28 08:57:58 UTC 
Per comment 2, move to POST.
Comment 6 hongming 2012-07-25 06:58:02 UTC 
Verify it using the following version.
kernel-2.6.32-276.el6.x86_64
qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.295.el6.x86_64
libvirt-0.9.13-3.el6.x86_64

Steps

# service libvirtd stop
Stopping libvirtd daemon:                                  [  OK  ]

# service libvirt-guests status
started

# service libvirt-guests stop

Can't connect to default. Skipping.

# service libvirt-guests status
stopped, with no saved guests


# service libvirtd start
Starting libvirtd daemon:                                  [  OK  ]

# service libvirt-guests start

# virsh list --all
 Id    Name                           State
----------------------------------------------------
 5     rhel6                          running
 6     win                            running

# service libvirt-guests stop

Running guests on default URI: rhel6, win

Suspending guests on default URI...
Suspending rhel6: done         
Suspending win: done         

# service libvirt-guests status
stopped, with saved guests

Results
