The right answer here is to plumb the qemu monitor interface into xend, and provide a method for accessing the interesting monitor commands from xm. It's already assumed that an xm user is privileged. This also provides a more consistent administrator experience: requiring to issue some commands directly at the qemu monitor interface is kinda cheesy. -- Keir On 10/4/07 06:34, "You, Yongkang" <yongkang.you@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi Christian and Daniel, > > I have read the original discussion about the security purpose concern for > removing the ioemu monitor.
