1 This directory contains files for seamless integration of vswitch on
2 Citrix XenServer hosts managed by the Citrix management tools.
4 Some of these files are modifications of Citrix's proprietary code.
5 Citrix has given permission to distribute these modified files.
6 Citrix has not specified a particular license for them. There is no
7 guarantee that, should Citrix specify a license, that it would be
8 DFSG-compliant or GPL-compatible.
10 Most of the files in this directory is installed on a XenServer system
11 under the same name, if underscores are replaced by slashes. The
16 Initializes the vswitch at boot and shuts it down at shutdown.
18 etc_init.d_vswitch-xapi-update
20 Init script to ensure vswitch-cfg-update is called for the
23 etc_logrotate.d_vswitch
25 Ensures that /var/log/ovs-vswitchd.log is rotated periodically
26 and that ovs-vswitchd reopens its log file at that point.
28 etc_profile.d_vswitch.sh
30 vswitch-related shell functions for the administrator's
33 etc_sysconfig_vswitch.example
35 Example configuration options for vswitch.
37 etc_xapi.d_plugins_vswitch-cfg-update
39 xapi plugin script to update the cache of configuration items
40 in the ovs-vswitchd configuration file that are managed in the
41 xapi database when integrated with Citrix management tools.
43 etc_xensource_scripts_vif
45 vswitch-aware replacement for Citrix script of the same name.
47 opt_xensource_libexec_interface-reconfigure
49 vswitch-aware replacement for Citrix script of the same name.
51 root_vswitch_scripts_dump-vif-details
53 Script to retrieve extended information about VIFs that are
54 needed by the controller. This is called by the "vif" script,
55 which is run when virtual interfaces are added and removed.
57 usr_lib_xsconsole_plugins-base_XSFeatureVSwitch.py
59 xsconsole plugin to configure the pool-wide configuration keys
60 used to control vswitch when integrated with Citrix management
65 spec file for building RPMs to install on a XenServer host.
67 To install, build the vswitch RPM with a command like this:
69 rpmbuild -D "vswitch_version $full_version" \
70 -D "xen_version $XENKERNEL" \
71 -D "build_number --with-build-number=$buildnr" \
74 Then, "rpm -U" the resulting vswitch package on the XenServer hosts in
75 question and reboot them. (The vswitch-dbg package that is also
76 produced need not be installed, but it is harmless to do so.)
