Re: [Xen-users] Automatic vncviewer startup

Hello,
is there a way to start automatically the vncviewer when a domU starts?
When I was using the xm toolstack I could use "xm create domain.cfg -vncviewer"
or something similar (if I'm not wrong), but I don't know how to do it with the
xl toolstack. At the moment, I have to create the domain using
xl create domU.cfg, then xl list to see the domU id and then xl
vncviewer<domU_id>
to start vncviewer.
Is it possible?
 
 
Hi Flavio,
You could wrap the commands in a shell script (make it executable):
    #!/bin/bash
    xl create vm14.cfg
    xl vncviewer vm14 &
Personally, I prefer that the domU run its own vncserver.  That way I 
can configure it to use the whole screen and then resize it as I see fit 
using regular window controls.  But then again, I have to start the 
viewer manually (alt-f2, then vncviewer domU-hostname:1).
Take a look at tigervnc.
 
By the way: does the analogue of 'xm new domU.cfg' exist in the new xl
toolstack?
 
 
xl create vm.cfg
