Is there a way to get notification, when a domain shutdown/restarts

Is there a way to get notification, when a domain shutdown/restarts

[Tom Rotenberg]

Hi,

I would like to write a script, which will run, every time my
(specific) domain reboots or shutdown. Is there any way, to "catch"
those events, or to be notified when it happens?

Hi Tom,
I am not sure about that but you can modify python script to call this 
script in this event. There should be some method to be called every 
time the domain reboots/shuts down. There you can add a call to you 
script or write it purely in python. I think it's somewhere in 
XendDomainInfo.py file somewhere in python site-packages directory.

Well, i was looking for a solution, which won't require me to modify
teh code, but to use an already-built mechaism for this, but i guess
none exists, so i'll modify the code for this.

Thanks!

You could use something like the monit package to monitor the domU through a
variety of methods, ping, socket connect, etc. The config allows one to
specify multiple rules to detect and take action based upon events.
It would be trivial to monitor a domU via ping and restart it if it stopper
responding.

It's also less code you have to maintain yourself :-)
