Okay, I dug a bit deeper. I grepped through all "domain is not running" errors and the only functions that have duplicate IsActive calls are qemuDomainSuspend, InjectNMI, qemuDomainQemuMonitorCommand, qemuDomainPMSuspendForDuration, qemuDomainFSTrim, qemuDomainSetTime, which all have an additional one _before_ the BeginJob check, which AFAICT only errors a bit earlier instead of waiting for the job lock, which isn't that useful. I looked at git history for DomainSuspend and DomainQemuMonitorCommand and it looks like both were added basically accidentally without any explicit purpose. The pattern that most functions call, and which seems ideal to me, is: - ACL check - BeginJob (if needed) - AgentAvailable (if needed, which btw checks domain is RUNNING btw) - !IsActive I'll send a patch to fix those up, seems like most cases were cargo culted anyways - Cole -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
