Hi Dave,
Nice to receive your indications.
Following your suggestions, The xapi has worked on
a non-XCP platform. After copying some scripts and excute files to the new host
from the XCP, many basic functions such as "xe sr-create" can work well.
However, when I tried to start a HVM(windowxp), the "xe vm-start" hanged up and
output nothing. I can not find any obvious indications in the xensource.log.
Below is the xensource.log.
Cheers, Jay

Subject: RE: [Xen-devel] XAPI source
code
Hi,

modules: > 1 block_device_io
This contains code to store a "redo
log" directly on a shared block device. If this is enabled and the Pool master
crashes, none of the metadata updates will be lost.

datamodel
This is a combination of an IDL for the XenAPI and a database
schema for the metadata.

"xiu")
It originally stood for 'xen in userspace'. It's a hypercall
simulator-- it allows the toolstack to be run inside a small VM without
talking to a real hypervisor or starting real domains. It allows large pools
to be simulated efficiently without having to nest hypervisors.

stats
This isn't very important. We use this to compute simple
aggregate statistics e.g. the length of the 'blackout' interval during a live
migrate. I'm not sure how useful these numbers really are. > 5
rpc-light
In xen-api-libs.hg this provides a nice way to autogenerate
value marshalling/unmarshalling code directly from ocaml datatypes (via
ocamlp4). There are currently JSON and XMLRPC 'backends' and it's easy to add
new ones.

An unused module which can generate RSS
feeds.

directly)
This is used by the 'xs' library to talk to xenstore. Note
that xapi doesn't use libxenstore.

"rpc" keys to path of "domain/<domid>" in the xenstore?)
This is
an old prototype of a xenstore RPC mechanism. In future we'll probably add
backends to 'rpc-light' instead of using this module. That way it's easier to
change the concrete data format (e.g. to use shared memory or
something)
