I'm using a custom vif-script and I've noticed that when the "offline"

most likely because the domain has already been destroyed.
Is there any way to defer the removal of those keys until $vif-script
offline has been called, or possibly retain it in xend and pass it along
as a command arg? The domain value is useful in the network
deconstruction I'm performing.
What do you mean by "the domain key"? You get the path to the domain, the
device type and the vif ID passed as environment variables -- this should be
sufficient for you to use as a key to other databases or whathaveyou. What
else do you require?
What's passed in is the xenstore path to that specific vif's backend
entries, for example "backend/vif/26/0". In 'online' mode
backend/vif/26/0/domain exists. In 'offline' mode, none of that data is
accessible, or at least the domain entry is no longer there.
I could store the associations between vifs and domainIDs/domain names
locally and perform lookups, but I was just looking for a xend provided
method to grab the domain(id) that "owned" the vif we're bringing offline.
Thanks,
