Yes, I gree that the README should tell the user to set TOOLSTACK=xapi if he or she wants to enable xapi. > If you are saying that xapi can support all the interfaces, then all of > them should be briefly touched upon. No, xapi cannot cope with xend running at the same time. It can cope with xl being used, as long as xl is not used to change the state of VMs which xapi is managing. What I am saying is that someone might want to switch to using xl instead of xapi. Making the change you suggested xcp-xapi.init would then mean that setting TOOLSTACK=xl would cause an error, when in fact it is a perfectly valid thing to do. > At this moment, following the README, it just fails. Agreed, let's make sure to add the TOOLSTACK=xapi setting to the README before Wheezy. Mike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
