Xen users - Sep 2008 - How to simply automaticall resume suspended Xend managed domains on Xend start in Xen 3.2.1

Hello,

 

            I try to configure the automatic suspension of some domains by
the end of Xend (especially older hvm domains with windows which cannot
react on the shutdown signal). If I write into the domain configuration file
the lines 

on_xend_start = ''start''

on_xend_stop = ''shutdown''

 

if works well with the linux domains, the domain is shut down on xend stop
and started with xend start.

 

Also if specifying 

 

on_xend_stop = ''suspend''

works well now (the snapshot did not work till I did not applied the patch
mentioned in
http://xen.markmail.org/search/?q=xend+suspend+problems#query:xend%20suspend
%20problems+page:1+mid:6bnxrk4eoonnyuyy+state:results 
- before the snapshot has not been created correctly) - the memory snapshot
is created in some instance''s subdirectory of the directory
/var/lib/xend/domains after xend is stopped like by explicite call of xm
suspend command.

 

Is there any way how to resume such a suspended domain on xend start?

If specifying



on_xend_start = ''start''

on_xend_stop = ''suspend''



then the domain is not resumed, I have tried also 

on_xend_start = ''resume''

on_xend_stop = ''suspend''



(resume is not documented if starting xm create --help_config, but I have
tried it) - but also without success... is there some way how to bring xend
to the resume of the suspended domains automatically, or do I have to write
my own scripts for it?

 

With regards,    

 

            Archie
