Using the Virtual Machine Manager

Managing a NetWare virtual machine is simplified by using the Virtual Machine Manager utility, which
is installed by default when you install the Xen virtualization software.
To start the Virtual Machine Manager, open a terminal prompt and enter virt-manager .
For more information, see
documentation/sles10/book_virtualization_xen/data/cha_xen_virtualization_manage.html)" in the
Virtualization with Xen guide (http://www.novell.com/documentation/sles10/book_virtualization_xen/
data/book_virtualization_xen.html).

Using the Command Line

Many NetWare administrators prefer to manage the server through the command line. If you want to
use the command line, you should be aware of the following issues:
"Terminal Size" on page 216
"NetWare Debugger" on page 216
"VNC Viewer" on page 216
"The xm Commands" on page 216
Terminal Size
The terminal window might display only 80x24 characters. If you don't want to scroll to the command
line, you need to resize the terminal.
NetWare Debugger
If pressing Alt+Shift+Shift+Esc doesn't launch the debugger, you can enter 386debug at the
command line.
VNC Viewer
In the VNC Viewer, pressing F8 displays a pop-up utility menu. Press F8 twice to pass single F8 to
the remote side.
The xm Commands
 You can also manage the NetWare virtual machine, and all other virtual machines running on the
Xen hypervisor, by using the xm command line tools. For more information, see
Command (http://www.novell.com/documentation/sles10/book_virtualization_xen/data/
sec_xen_virtualization_xm.html)" in the
documentation/sles10/book_virtualization_xen/data/book_virtualization_xen.html).
 To make a break in NetWare from a terminal, enter xm sysrq x c , where x is the domain ID and
c is any keyboard character.
