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...) Resolves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1408778

LibVirt : simple API for virtualization Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
