dtc_setup_vps_disks(8) System Manager's Manual dtc_setup_vps_disks(8)NAME
dtc_setup_disk - setup LVM disks for using it as a VM
SYNOPSIS
dtc_setup_vps_disk.sh VPS_NUMBER HDD_SIZE SWAP_SIZE [ lvm|loopback ]
DESCRIPTION
dtc_setup_vps_disk.sh This shell script is a part of the dtc-xen package that is to be used by the dtc panel to manage a Xen VPS server.
This script is used to create partitions to be used by a VPS later on. It will create a normal partition that will be used as a root disk,
and a swap partition.
dtc_setup_disk is to be used by the dtc-xen SOAP server, but can also be used as a standalone userland tool.
If the partition(s) exists, then this script will delete it/them first.
OPTIONS
VPS_NUMBER has to be a number between 01 and 19. Let's say the number is 16, and that dtc-xen is configured to use the volume group called
lvm1, then this script will create /dev/lvm1/xen16 and /dev/lvm1/xen16swap.
HDD_SIZE Size in MB of the VPS partition to create.
SWAP_SIZE Size in MB of the VPS swap partition to create. If the dtc-xen SOAP server is used to create the VPS, then it will create a swap
partition of the exact same size as the memory.
IMAGE_TYPE This parameter can have 2 values: either lvm or loopback. If ommited, then lvm is used. If lvm is used, then this script will
create a partition using lvmcreate, otherwise it will create an image file. Both will later be used for the VPS.
EXAMPLE
dtc_setup_vps_disk 04 15360 256 lvm
This will create 2 LVM partition to be used by the VPS named xen04, the first one being a root partition of 15 GB, and the second one being
a swap partition of 256 MB.

dtc-xen_migrate - migrate a VPS to another Xen server
SYNOPSIS
LOCAL_VPS_ID DESTINATION_HOSTNAME [ DEST_VPS_ID ]
DESCRIPTION
dtc-xen_migrate This shell script is a part of the dtc-xen package that is to be used by the dtc panel to manage a Xen VPS server. Note
that you need rsync in both the source and the destination dom0.
This script is used to move the content of a Xen virtual machine (VM) managed with dtc-xen to another Xen server of the same type. The VM
destination will first be prepared, then the local VM will be shut down, then it's content will be transfered over using rsync.
Note that this is NOT a live migration, and down time of approximatively the time needed for the rsync will occure.
PARAMETERS
LOCAL_VPS_ID The DTC-Xen id of the VM, from 00 to 99.
DESTINATION_HOSTNAME Destination Xen server hostname to migrate to.
DEST_VPS_ID Destination DTC-Xen id of the VM, from 00 to 99.
EXAMPLE
dtc-xen_migrate 19 alpha.example.com 21
This will migrate the content of xen19 on the local machine to the destination server alpha.example.com using xen21 as VM name.
