[Xen-API] Xen API with Java on Xen 4.1.2

[Esko Mattila <esko.mattila@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello all,

I am running Xen 4.1.2 on installed on Fedora 16. I would like to program a monitoring tool for my configuration with Java. I tried the Java examples for XenServer SDK 6.0 [1], but my Dom0 cannot answer requests from the client:

Failed to create input stream: Unexpected end of file from server.  (error message on client after running  the RunTests.java with parameters java RunTests localhost:5555 username passwd)

I have configured xen-api-server value on /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp to:

(xen-api-server) ((5555 none ^localhost$')

                              (unix none)))

Now I strongly think that I cannot use the API [1] for my configuration, although on previous versions it might have been working [2].

Is there any ways to use the API with my configuration or what other solutions I might have for programming the Xen monitoring tool? With the tool, I would like to notice, for example, whether a virtual machine has been crashed or the vm is using too much memory. A dummy solution would be to run command line commands, such as "xm list" and read lines with a Java program.

Gratefully yours,
