> GCE recently added shutdown ability for its instances. When an instance is in shutdown state, a REST API call to the instance returns no STATE information and common operations like listNodes() fail showing a null exception while parsing INPUT for "status".
> Could this be fixed so as to ignore stopped instances or atleast not crash any calls made using jclouds.
> ps: There also seems to be something funny at the GCE backend. If I stop an instance and fetch node metadata usign Jclouds, I get a terminated for the node, which is what is expected. After say, an hour or so, it no longer returns anything and crashes the call throwing the same error described above. 
> I'd like to know if this error is replicated on another cloud account.
