Hi,

Occasionally a domain exits and leaves an associated Dom0 vif active, which causes problems if the domain is restartedand uses the same vif name. If I rename the interface to an irrelevant name in Dom0 (using ip link set DEV name XXX)then restarting a domain works fine, but I land up with orphaned vifs consuming resources...


Does anyone know how to actually destroy/delete an orphaned vif from Dom0 as 
opposed to just renaming it?

Thanks
Dave
