cvcd - virtual console daemon SYNOPSIS
/platform/platform_name/cvcd [-a auth] [-e encr] [-u esp_auth] DESCRIPTION
The virtual console daemon, cvcd, is a server process that supports the network console provided on some platforms. The cvcd daemon accepts network console connections from a remote host (only one host at any given time). Console input is read from this connection and forwarded to cvc(7D) by way of cvcredir(7D). Similarly, console output is read from cvcredir(7D) and forwarded across the network console connection. If cvcd dies, console traffic is automatically rerouted through an internal hardware interface. The cvcd daemon normally starts at system boot time. Each domain supports only one cvcd process at a time. Caution - On Sun Enterprise 10000 domains, cvcd uses a configuration file (/etc/ssphostname) to determine the name of the host from which network console connections are allowed. If the remote console host is renamed, you must edit the configuration file to reflect that change. The cvcd daemon supports per-socket IP Security Architecture (IPsec) through the options described below. See ipsec(7P). OPTIONS
The cvcd daemon supports the options listed below. -a auth Controls the IPsec Authentication Header (AH) algorithm. auth can be one of none, md5, or sha1. -e encr Controls the IPsec Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) encryption algorithm. encr can be one of none, des, or 3des. -u esp_auth Controls the IPsec Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) authentication algorithm. esp_auth can be one of none, md5, or sha1. OPERANDS
The following operands are supported: platform_name The official Sun platform name used in packaging and code. For example, for Sun Fire 15K servers, the platform_name would be SUNW,Sun-Fire-15000. EXAMPLES
Example 1 Setting an IPSec Option The command below sets the value of the IPsec Authentication Header algorithm to md5. As a result of this command, cvcd will use the HMAC- MD5 authentication algorithm. # svccfg -s svc:/system/cvc setprop cvc/ah_auth = "md5" # svccfg -s svc:/system/cvc setprop cvc/esp_encr = "none" # svccfg -s svc:/system/cvc setprop cvc/esp_auth = "none" # svcadm refresh svc:/system/cvc ATTRIBUTES

The cvcd service is managed by the service management facility, smf(5), under the fault management resource identifier (FMRI): svc:/system/cvc Administrative actions on this service, such as enabling, disabling, or requesting restart, can be performed using svcadm(1M) or svc- cfg(1M). The service's status can be queried using the svcs(1) command. SunOS 5.11 9 Mar 2006 cvcd(1M)

xend(1M) System Administration Commands xend(1M) NAME
xend - xVM control daemon SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/xend DESCRIPTION
The xend daemon provides control of the Solaris xVM domains on a system. Its administrative interface is xm(1M). Service Management Facility Support The xend service is managed by the service management facility, smf(5), under the service identifier: svc:/system/xvm/xend:default Administrative actions on this service, such as enabling, disabling, or requesting restart, can be performed using svcadm(1M). The ser- vice's status can be queried using the svcs(1) command. xend Properties The xend service instance has the properties listed below. These properties are administered by means of svccfg(1M) and svcadm(1M). config/default-nic Specifies the default network interface used for guest domain networking. By default, the empty string is specified, in which case the first interface listed in the output of dladm(1M) show-link is used. If you need to use a different interface, for example, bge0, you should change this property appropriately. config/dom0-cpus The number of physical CPUs to be used for the virtual CPUs of the control domain (dom0). The default of 0 implies that each virtual CPU will be placed on its own physical CPU where possible. Note that physical CPUs can still be shared between dom0 and other domains unless they are configured not to do so. config/dom0-min-mem The minimum amount of memory guaranteed to the control domain (dom0). The default is 196 (MB). config/enable-dump Controls whether a domain core dump should be created if a domain crashes. Dumps are generated in /var/xen/dump and can be processed with mdb(1). The default is true. config/vncpasswd Sets the password required by any client connecting to a VNC session for a guest domain. Defaults to "" (no password). VNC password authentication is not secure and should not be used for securing guest domain consoles. config/vnc-listen Address to listen on for VNC connections. By default this is 127.0.0.1, which has a special meaning: only users or processes with the PRIV_VIRT_MANAGE privilege are allowed to connect, and they must be logged on locally. If you set this to any other value, then anyone will be able to connect to VNC sessions, regardless of authorization. config/xend-relocation-address Address that xend listens on for relocation requests. If blank or not present, all interfaces are used. The default is 127.0.0.1. config/xend-relocation-hosts-allow A space-separated list of regular expressions. If the host name of a system matches any one of the given regular expressions, it is allowed to connect and interact with the relocation server, if the server has been enabled by the xend-relocation-server property. The default is ^localhost$. config/xend-relocation-server Controls whether the xend relocation server (for live migration) should listen for relocation requests on TCP port 8002. The default is true. config/xend-unix-server Controls whether the legacy HTTP server interface should be provided on the local machine. The default is true. EXAMPLES
Example 1 Modifying an Existing Property Use the following sequence of commands to modify an existing xend property. # svccfg -s svc:/system/xvm/xend:default listprop # svccfg -s svc:/system/xvm/xend:default setprop config/dom0-cpus = 1 # svcadm refresh svc:/system/xvm/xend:default Example 2 Enabling Live Migration By default, xend listens only on the loopback address for requests from the localhost. If you want to allow other machines to live migrate to the local machine, you need to configure xend appropriately. For example: # svccfg -s svc:system/xvm/xend svc:/system/xvm/xend> setprop config/xend-relocation-address = "" svc:/system/xvm/xend> setprop config/xend-relocation-hosts-allow = "^flax$ ^localhost$" svc:/system/xvm/xend> end # svcadm refresh svc:system/xvm/xend:default && svcadm restart svc:system/xvm/xend:default FILES
