At one time when I issued an 'init 6' in one of the XEN guests it rebooted
I've narrowed the issue to the xend and xendomains daemons.
On one of my systems I was able to init 6 and init 0 no problem, then suddenly I could not, when this occurred, CPU utilization was 100% on one CPU on the host with the guest said either "Restarting System" or "System Halted". After some investigation I found that if I restarted the xend and xendomains services I could once again init 0 and init 6.
I usually use xm reboot from the host. You can also use reboot from within the guest. I remember *one* occurence quite a few months back where after an update I had problems to shut a VM down. But it happened only that one time. Note, there is a centos-virt list.
Thanks for this tip, I have signed up on the centos-virt list.
