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_xapi.d_plugins_vswitch-cfg-update
35 xapi plugin script to update the cache of configuration items
36 in the ovs-vswitchd configuration file that are managed in the
37 xapi database when integrated with Citrix management tools.
39 etc_xensource_scripts_vif
41 vswitch-aware replacement for Citrix script of the same name.
43 opt_xensource_libexec_interface-reconfigure
45 vswitch-aware replacement for Citrix script of the same name.
47 root_vswitch_scripts_dump-vif-details
49 Script to retrieve extended information about VIFs that are
50 needed by the controller. This is called by the "vif" script,
51 which is run when virtual interfaces are added and removed.
53 usr_share_vswitch_scripts_refresh-xs-network-uuids
55 Script to refresh bridge.<bridge>.xs-network-uuids keys, which
56 can get out-of-sync following a pool join. Running this script
57 is an alternative to rebooting the host.
59 root_vswitch_scripts_sysconfig.template
61 Template for vswitch's /etc/sysconfig/vswitch configuration
64 usr_lib_xsconsole_plugins-base_XSFeatureVSwitch.py
66 xsconsole plugin to configure the pool-wide configuration keys
67 used to control vswitch when integrated with Citrix management
72 wrapper for /usr/sbin/brctl that provides some additional
77 vswitch-aware replacement for Citrix script of the same name.
81 spec file for building RPMs to install on a XenServer host.
83 To install, build the vswitch RPM with a command like this:
85 rpmbuild -D "vswitch_version $full_version" \
86 -D "xen_version $XENKERNEL" \
87 -D "build_number --with-build-number=$buildnr" \
90 Then, "rpm -U" the resulting vswitch package on the XenServer hosts in
91 question and reboot them. (The vswitch-dbg package that is also
92 produced need not be installed, but it is harmless to do so.)
