Meanings of several States in XM list
Run the xm list Command. In the result, the state segment can list the status of the xen domain in step 6, and the State is one of the following.
R-run
Domain is running in CPU
B-blocking
domain blocking means that this domain is not in the running or runnable state. This may be because the domain is waiting for Io (a traditional wait state) or is already in sleep state because it is idle.
P-Pause
the domain is paused, generally, the Administrator runs the XM pause command. A paused domain still occupies system resources, such as memory. But it will not be listed by the xen hypervisor (but will not be eligible for scheduling by the xen hypervisor ).
S-close
the guest has been disabled, restarted, and suspended by the request ), or the domain is in the process to be destroyed.
C-crash
domain crash, which is always a violent ending. Generally, this status only appears when it is not set in the configuration file to restart during a crash. For more information, see xmdomain. cfg.
D-dying
domain is dying, but it is not completely closed or not crashed
