When you do this to FreeBSD, it doesn't shutdown completely. It appears it is doing the equivalent of a "shutdown -h now" and halting instead of doing the complete poweroff. If you manually run "shutdown -p now" from the console it does cleanly poweroff the VM, indicating the capability exists; it just doesn't use the right shutdown method when the signal comes through XEN. >How-To-Repeat:
