This is a bunch of utilities for xen hosts. Some useful are for admins, some for developers, some are just experiental and not very useful at all ... xenwatch First application which also gave the name to the whole package. gtk application, lists running domains with some properties, allows to connect to text console or vnc display. Uses xenstore, thus does see active domains only. xenscreen Attaches xen domain consoles to screen windows. Great tool for text mode hackers and screen users. This one can run either using xenstore or using libvirt. xenstore gtk xenstore browser. If you don't know what xenstore is you don't need it. xenlog Log xenstore activity to stdout. vnc-client xenwatch builtin vnc client as standalone application. mdns-publish-xendom Publish xen uuid and domid via multicast dns. Runs inside your xen guests aka domUs. Doesn't notice save/restore and migration, due to xenstore watches not working inside guests, thus it isn't terribly useful ... mdns-publish-vnc Publish vnc ports of xen guests via multicast dns. Unconditionally, even when listening on 127.0.0.1 only (default) and thus you can't connect from outside anyway ... mdns-browser Simple multicast dns service browser. Depending on the libraries installed at build time some utilities might not be built or build with incomplete features set. You can make /var/run/xenstored/socket_ro world-readable, then the utilities using xenstore will work for non-root users too. enjoy, Gerd -- Gerd Hoffmann
