I'm not able to shutdown KVM guests (Ubuntu 11.04 Server) effectively from the Proxmox interface. The guest seems to stay up. Memory utilization does not change. I've been forced to go to console on each guest and execute sudo shutdown -P now in order to complete a graceful full shutdown.

tasks log output:
Code:
/usr/sbin/qm shutdown 102
VM 102 stopped

syslog output:
Code:
Jul 15 10:51:49     pvedaemon    23575     stopping VM 102 on node 0 (localhost)
Jul 15 10:51:49     qm           23576     VM 102 sending 'shutdown'
Jul 15 10:51:49     pvedaemon    23575     VM 102 stopped

Except, it's not actually stopped, and there is no indication in the log about the VM restarting. SSH sessions even stay connected through the "stop" so I don't think it's actually doing anything on the guest.

The guests are configured as guest type "Linux 2.6". Is that the root of the issue, or is there a configuration problem somewhere else that I should look?

Thanks!
 
did you install acpid in the guest?
