I used linux a few years ago and recently installed ubuntu again. I installed a centos 5.5 vm using virt-manager kvm. I see an option to have guest start on host boot...is there any way to have guest shut down when you issue the shutdown command on the host? I am surprised not to see that option in settings anywhere. thanks for listening, it is annoying as it is because I keep bringing down my ubuntu before (or I should say forgetting to) shutting down my centos vm. and in this case ubuntu just hangs and has to be hard brought down.
