It is handled by the libvirt-guest service, which is not enabled by default. $ systemctl status libvirt-guests.service ○ libvirt-guests.service - libvirt guests suspend/resume service Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/libvirt-guests.service; disabled; preset: disabled) Drop-In: /usr/lib/systemd/system/service.d └─10-timeout-abort.conf Active: inactive (dead) Docs: man:libvirt-guests(8) https://libvirt.org/ The referenced man page lists the various options which may be configured, whether to suspend (the default) or shutdown the guests, how long to wait, etc. -- Todd
