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 functionality 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-setup.
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.
The behaviour of
adt-virt-xenlvm is as described by the AutomatedTesting
virtualisation regime specification.
