BTW: I tried today with ovirt 3.2.1 and it is not possible to
interrupt shutdown, at least with "shutdown -c" command

With agent inside a CentOS 6.4 VM the comamnd run is:

[root at c2 ~]# ps -ef|grep shut
root     15767  1581  0 23:39 ?        00:00:00 rhev-shutdown -h +1
"System Administrator has initiated shutdown of this Virtual Machine.
Virtual Machine is shutting down."
root     15768 15767  0 23:39 ?        00:00:00 [shutdown] <defunct>
root     15799 15781  0 23:40 pts/0    00:00:00 grep shut

If you try to cancel it with
shutdown -c

you get

shutdown: Cannot find pid of running shutdown

I don't know if Michal meant instead to kill the pid processes
themselves (15767 and and 15768 in my case)....
