[PATCH] docs: fix list of domain states in virsh manpage

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The virsh manpage lists "shutdown" and "dying" as two of the possible
domain states that could be listed in the output of the "virsh list"
command. However, a domain that is being shutdown will be listed as
"in shutdown", and the "dying" state doesn't even exist (and never
has, as far as I can tell from looking through git history - it was
shown in the original import of the virsh.pod file in 2006; there was
no VIR_DOMAIN_DYING state then, there wasn't one when those lines of
virsh.pod were tweaked in 2008, and there still isn't one
today. Apparently it was just something that sounded like a good idea
to someone at some time, but was never implemented...)
