Currently, the libxl driver reports a connection type of "xenlight". To be compatible with the legacy Xen driver, it should return "Xen". Note: I noticed this while testing the libxl driver on OpenStack. After switching my Xen compute nodes to use the libxl stack, I could no longer launch instances on those nodes since hypervisor_type was reported as "xenlight" instead of "xen". --- src/libxl/libxl_driver.c | 2 +- 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/libxl/libxl_driver.c b/src/libxl/libxl_driver.c index 3990354..935919b 100644 --- a/src/libxl/libxl_driver.c +++ b/src/libxl/libxl_driver.c @@ -1405,7 +1405,7 @@ libxlConnectClose(virConnectPtr conn ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED) static const char * libxlConnectGetType(virConnectPtr conn ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED) { - return "xenlight"; + return "Xen"; } static int -- 1.7.7 -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
