11 ovs\-xenserverd \- Open vSwitch daemon for XenServer-specific functionality
14 \fBovs\-xenserverd \fR[\fIoptions\fR]
17 A daemon that provides XenServer-specific functionality for Open
18 vSwitch. Currently, its only purpose is to ensure that network UUIDs
19 in the Open vSwitch database are kept up-to-date when the XenServer
20 host joins or leaves a pool. It does so by running
21 \fB@pkgdatadir@/scripts/refresh-network-uuids\fR.
23 \fBovs\-xenserverd\fR is useful only on Citrix XenServer hosts.
24 Running it on any other kind of host is harmless but not useful.
