Pkg xen devel - May 2012 - Bug#674132: xcp-xapi: backend check error

Package: xcp-xapi
Severity: important

The README doc mentions:

4/ Configuring Xen and XCP
--------------------------
4.1/ Switch using xl instead of xm and xend to control Xen
As of writing, you should do that:
sed -i "s/TOOLSTACK=/TOOLSTACK=xl/" /etc/default/xen


Where as the init script checks for:

# Exit cleanly if TOOLSTACK != xapi
if [ "${TOOLSTACK}" != "xapi" ]; then
        log_failure_msg "Xen toolstack is not set to xapi! Exiting."
        exit 0
fi


Please fix this to one.

Hi Ritesh,

Should this really be an error? It's likely that for Xen 4.1, someone
might have three toolstacks installed at the same time: xm, xl, and
xapi. It seems that they should have the option to switch between the
three without causing an error in the init scripts of the other two.

In this case, do we really want to return an error here?
