--- Comment #6 from Dion Kant
Init scripts ------------ Before you can create additional VMs (or use any other xm command) xend must be running. This init script is part of the xen-tools package, and it is activated at installation time. You can (de)activate it using insserv. You can also start it manually with "rcxend start".
The deprecated xendomains script is also shipped, but disabled by default. In SLES 10 GA (xen 3.0.2) and older, this script allowed VMs to be started and stopped automatically when the machine starts and stops. In SLES 10 SP1 (xen 3.0.4) and newer, the proper way to start and stop VMs automatically is to set the "on_xend_start" and "on_xend_stop" settings in the VMs configuration. (Deprecating xendomains was necessary because xend, not the configuration file in /etc/xen/vm, is now the authoritative source for the VM's settings.) Consult the online documentation for more information.
This is really confusing since AFAIK the "on_xend_start" and the deprecation of xendomains is contradictory to using xl. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
