This section contains link to Xen manual pages that are generated from the Xen codebase. They reflect the state of xen-unstable.hg. We do not yet have versions for specific Xen releases, but will have them in future |
Man Pages
| Man page | Description |
|---|---|
| xl(1) | Xen management tool, based on LibXenlight |
| xm(1) | Xen management user interface (to be deprecated, also see Xen 4.1 Upgrade Notes) |
| xend-config.sxp(5) | Xen daemon configuration file |
| xl.cfg(5) | XL Domain Configuration File Syntax |
| xmdomain.cfg(5) | XM domain config file format |
Supporting Documents for XL
| Document | Description |
|---|---|
| xl.cfg(5), disk configuration | This document specifies the xl config file format disk configuration option. |
| xl.cfg(5), network configuration | This document specifies the xl config file format vif configuration option. |
| xl.cfg(5), tsc_mode configuration | In Xen 4 a new config option called tsc_mode may be specified for each domain. This document is targeted for Xen users and administrators that may need to select a non-default tsc_mode. |
Supporting Documents for XM
| Document | Description |
|---|---|
| xm.cfg(5), sEDF scheduler | The sEDF scheduler provides weighted CPU sharing in an intuitive way and uses realtime-algorithms to ensure time guarantees. |
Other documents
| Document | Description |
|---|---|
| Environment Variables for different Linux distros | With directory layout differences between Red Hat, Debian, Suse and other distros one needs to set the variables for CONFIG_LEAF_DIR, SUBSYS_DIR and INITD_DIR. |
Advanced topics
| Document(s) | Description |
|---|---|
| How to do PCI Passthrough with VT-d | |
| Virtual TPM support | This document gives a short introduction to the virtual TPM support in XEN and goes as far as connecting a user domain to a virtual TPM instance and doing a short test to verify success. It is assumed that the user is fairly familiar with compiling and installing XEN and Linux on a machine. |
