NAME
     xend - Xen control daemon

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/lib/xend

DESCRIPTION
     xend provides control of the Xen domains on a system. Its
     administrative interface is xm(1).

NOTES

     The xend service is managed  by  the  service  management
     facility, smf(5), under the service identifier:

        svc:/system/xctl/xend:default

     Administrative actions on this service,  such  as  enabling,
     disabling,  or  requesting  restart,  can be performed using
     svcadm(1M). The service's status can be  queried  using  the
     svcs(1) command.

     The service can only be enabled successfully when running under
     the Xen hypervisor.

     The xend service instance has the following properties:

     config/enable-dump (default: true)

	This property controls whether a domain core dump should 
	be created if a domain crashes.

     xend-unix-server (default: true)

	This property controls whether the legacy HTTP server interface
	should be provided on the local machine.

     xend-relocation-server (default: true)

	This property controls whether the xend relocation server (for
	live migration) should listen for relocation requests on TCP
	port 8002.

    xend-relocation-address (default: "127.0.0.1")

	Address which xend listens on for relocation requests. If blank or not
	present, all interfaces are used.

     xend-relocation-hosts-allow (default '^localhost$')

	A space-separated list of regular expressions. If the host name
	of a system matches any one of the given regular expressions, it
	is allowed to connect and interact with the relocation server, if
	the server has been enabled by the 'xend-relocation-server'
	property.

     dom0-min-mem (default: 196, units Mb)

	The minimum amount of memory guaranteed to the control domain (dom0).

     dom0-cpus (default: 0)

	The number of physical CPUs to be used for the virtual CPUs of the
	control domain (dom0). A default of 0 implies that each virtual CPU
	will be placed on its own physical CPU where possible. Note that
	physical CPUs may still be shared between dom0 and other domains
	unless they are configured to not do so.

     The properties can be administered via svccfg(1) and svcadm(1).
