I am trying to figure out what EXACTLY happens in inter-domain comms. Literature says that inter-domain comms are dependent on a asynchronous mechanism via event channels, grant tables, and hypercalls but never talks in detail the actual flow of information i.e. which ports, details on XenStore and where exactly does XenStore sit, and how EXACTLY how domains ''bind'' together. I see how to execute the commands as mentioned in the Version 3 interface manual but what are the nitty-gritty details on the inter-domain comms. Also how EXACTLY does Xenstore communicate with the other domains? Thanks.

Have you tried this: http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenIntro Some of ur questions might be answered here. The physical xenstore resides in one file: /var/lib/xenstored/tdb.

Sorry that was little misinterpretation. After browsing the code I found that the xen store is stored in a file /var/run/xenstored/tdb. Code is in tools/xenstore/ HTH On 1/25/06, Jayesh Salvi <jayeshsalvi@gmail.com> wrote:> > Have you tried this: > http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenIntro > > Some of ur questions might be answered here.
