6.1 Updating SLE 10 VM Host Server
Systems to SLE 11
The update of a Xen VM Host Server is done similar to the update of a normal SUSE
Linux Enterprise system. For details about the update, see Chapter 7, Updating SUSE
Linux Enterprise (↑Deployment Guide). However, there are some issues that you have
to resolve manually.
6.1.1 Xend Configuration
Due to changes in default settings, the Xen Management Daemon (xend) configuration
file is replaced on upgrade. Customizations are saved to /etc/xen/xend-config
.sxp.rpmsave for merging with the new configuration file. Unfortunately, there is
no automatism to solve this. For more information about editing the xend configuration,
see
Section 4.2, "Controlling the Host by Modifying xend Settings"
(page 32).
