Hi
I seem to be having a little trouble with libxenstat, and was wondering
if the xenstat guys might be able to help.

I've pulled the xen-unstable.hg tree and done a somewhat clean install
(ie, post-make uninstall, as well as deleting the relevant libxenstat
libraries).
You have to install libxenstat.so to use the python bindings. libxenstat is not a supported interface for 3.0. It's in the tree for xentop. It may play a larger role in future versions but for right now it's function is pretty limited.

You may have better luck using the xc python bindings that are installed with Xend. You can get the same information as you can get in libxenstat just through a different interface.

In xen.lowlevel.xc, you want to use domain_get_info() and domain_get_vcpu_info().

Next, I entered the tools/xenstat/libxenstat directory and modified the
Makefile so that the shared libraries would be installed. I've included
my Makefile below.

I ran:

make
make install
make python-bindings
make install-python-bindings


Next, I started a python session and entered:

import xenstat
and got the following output.

Python 2.3.5 (#2, Sep  4 2005, 22:01:42)
[GCC 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-13)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
import xenstat

   import _xenstat
ImportError: /usr/local/lib/python2.3/site-packages/_xenstat.so: undefined 
symbol: xenstat_init


Any thoughts?

Thanks!
