      <pre wrap="">Hello Sean,

The shutdown script includes a timeout, when it's reached it assumes the VM is 
still running. However it looks like the VM is indeed shutting down after that 
timeout. I think that's why your vm is in such an ugly state.

Possible fixes:
* Disable the acpi popup in your VM [1][2]
* Install the *server* distribution, not the desktop.
* Try with the appliance we created [3]
* Increase the timeout in the shutdown script [4] (not recommended!!)

    So, I'm attempting to create a master linux client image from which I
    can deploy new clients easily.  I know that I'll eventually need to get
    master contextualization.  However, before I get there, I'm having problems.

    I created a template that used a raw hard disk and an ubuntu boot cd to
    create a working ubuntu 12.04 VM.  Done, worked.
    I used onevm saveas <vm-name> <disk-id> "ubuntu-base-image" to set up a
    save.
    I used onevm shutdown <vm-id> to shut it down.

    At first, it appeared to work.  I was watching the vm from VNC and it
    popped up a window asking if I wanted to shut it down (I need to
    research how to make that window not happen in ubuntu).

    However.  The VM transitioned to "unknown" state about 5 minutes later
    (initially it was "shutdown"), and the log says that it didn't properly
    finish shutdown:

    Thu May 17 16:19:33 2012 [LCM][I]: New VM state is SHUTDOWN
    Thu May 17 16:24:38 2012 [VMM][I]: Command execution fail:
    /var/tmp/one/vmm/kvm/shutdown one-7 172.26.210.149 7 172.26.210.149
    Thu May 17 16:24:38 2012 [VMM][E]: Timeout reached and VM one-7 is still alive
    Thu May 17 16:24:38 2012 [VMM][I]: Timeout reached
    Thu May 17 16:24:38 2012 [VMM][I]: ExitCode: 1
    Thu May 17 16:24:38 2012 [VMM][I]: Failed to execute virtualization driver
    operation: shutdown.
    Thu May 17 16:24:38 2012 [VMM][E]: Error shuting down VM: Timeout reached
    and VM one-7 is still alive
    Thu May 17 16:24:38 2012 [LCM][I]: Fail to shutdown VM. Assuming that the VM
    is still RUNNING (will poll VM).
    Thu May 17 16:24:38 2012 [VMM][I]: ExitCode: 0
    Thu May 17 16:24:38 2012 [VMM][I]: VM not found, setting to UNKNOWN


    And, presumably because of this, my image status "locked" and there is
    no data that has made it into the image.

    Is the answer that I need to figure out how to make ubuntu do a
    clean/fast ACPI shutdown before I can make this work, or is something
    else afoot.  Corollary question:  has anyone managed to make ubuntu do a
    clean ACPI shutdown with no intervention?

    Thanks!

    sean
