How does virt-manager send shutdown to guests? Does it depend on if you
are running kvm or xen? I have been building images with acpid enabled

kvm my images no longer respond to shutdown. Is there a tweak which I
have missed?
virt-manager just invokes the shutdown API in libvirt, which has different
impls depending on the underlying hypervisor. In KVM case it invokes the
QEMU 'system_shutdown' command, which then triggers an ACPI power button
event in the guest. You need to make sure your guest has the <acpi/>
feature enabled in its XML config of course, and that the kernel has
activated ACPI (may need the acpi=force param), and that acpid is running.
IIRC certainly KVM versions have a bug wrt this causing it not to work

I added the following to my xml
<features>
<feature>
<acpi/>
</feature>
</features>
and had acpi=force on my kernel line.. still no luck. I looked for bugs
in bugzilla.redhat... saw none for kvm with acpi. Is there another to
bug tool to look at?
