Hi Juergen,

When a domain has been recognized to have stopped, remove all its

 From my understanding, shutdown doesn't mean dead. It may be used during migration (or snapshotting), where we don't want to touch the state in case of a cancellation (or resume).

For instance, see the command XS_RESUME which will clear domain->shutdown.

Oh, good catch!

I need to additionally check the "shutdown reason". I can remove the
watches only in case of the reason not having been "suspend".

This is quite fragile because we may add new shutdown code in the future that could resume.

I think it would be better to only delete the watches if the domain is effectively dying (I don't think it can come back from that state)

This is how it is done today.

The domain's Xenstore entries are removed before the domain is being
destroyed.
