101 To install, build the Open vSwitch RPM with a command like this:
103 rpmbuild -D "openvswitch_version $full_version" \
104 -D "xen_version $XENKERNEL" \
105 -D "build_number --with-build-number=$buildnr" \
106 -bb openvswitch-xen.spec
108 Then, "rpm -U" the resulting Open vSwitch package on the XenServer hosts in
