Immediately after upgrade, xl list show such error: # xl list libxl: error: libxl.c:506:libxl_list_domain: geting domain info list: Permission denied libxl_domain_infolist failed. After a reboot, it is fine. Any idea why such behaviour? Imagine if there are running domUs... this might cause issues to shutdown? I will downgrade and repeat such test to confirm. Might be worth a note in upgrading note about this if this is intended? 2. localtime setting not working. Set to localtime=1 doesn't seems to work whereby setting rtc_timeoffset works. Any idea? 3. xl trigger hvmdomain power still never remove those related iptables forward rules. This is the same problem when I test in xen-4.1-testing. Refer to http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2012-02/msg00771.html about past report. When test in xen-4.1-testing, one funny behaviour is if I start hvmdomain using xm then use xl trigger hvmdomain power does remove those iptables related rule chain. I shall do more testing when time permit and sorry if this report is useless to anyone. Thanks. Kindest regards, Giam Teck Choon
