Listen, if you know a bit of programming in C and need to program unix-type operating systems the next transitive stage is for sure C++.

adt-virt-xenlvm

adt-virt-xenlvm(1)					     Linux Programmer's Manual						adt-virt-xenlvm(1)

NAME

       adt-virt-xenlvm - autopkgtest virtualisation server using Xen and LVM

SYNOPSYS

       adt-virt-xenlvm [options] -- [adt-xenlvm options]

DESCRIPTION

       adt-virt-xenlvm provides an autopkgtest virtualisation server using a Xen virtual machine and LVM snapshots.  It adapts the raw functional-
       ity provided by the adt-xenlvm-* tools for use by autopkgtest.

       Normally adt-virt-xenlvm will be invoked by adt-run.

       adt-virt-xenlvm uses adt-xenlvm-with-testbed and adt-xenlvm-on-testbed.	The testbed must have previously been set up with  adt-xenlvm-set-
       up.

       Neither	adt-virt-xenlvm nor adt-xenlvm-with-testbed do any locking; it is the the caller's responsibility not to attempt concurrent use of
       any particular testbed.

OPTIONS

       --distro=distro
	      Specifies a different distro (ie, the use of a different testbed).

       --nominum=nominum
	      Specifies a different nominum (ie, the use of a different testbed).

       --userv
	      Specifies that the adt-xenlvm tools should not be run directly, but rather via userv.  The calling user must  be	permitted  to  use
	      userv root adt-xenlvm-testbed.  In the default configuration, this means being a member of the AdtXenUs group.

       -- --adt-xenlvm-option=adt-xenlvm-value
	      Following  the  first  occurrence of -- on the adt-virt-xenlvm commandline, any of the values in the adt-xenlvm configuration may be
	      set in the usual way.  The arguments are simply passed to adt-virt-xenlvm.

	      See /usr/share/doc/autopkgtest-xenlvm/README.gz for full details of adt-xenlvm.

       -- -Dvarname=value
	      If --userv was specified, options following the first -- on the adt-virt-xenlvm commandline are passed as option arguments to userv.
	      These  should  normally be user-defined variable settings using -D which are expected by the autopkgtest-xenlvm/userv-target script.
	      Currently only distro and nominum are expected, and these can be set using adt-virt-xenlvm's own options.

       -d | --debug
	      Enables debugging output.  Probably not hugely interesting.

INPUT, OUTPUT AND EXIT STATUS
       The behaviour of adt-virt-xenlvm is as described by the AutomatedTesting virtualisation regime specification.
