[Xen-devel] Why is the relocation server enabled by default?

[Anthony Wright <anthony@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The default installation of xen enables the relocation server by default.

This is a fairly sophisticated feature, and won't be used by the 
majority of users particularly those who don't change the default settings.
I realise that it's restricted by internal settings, but given that 
there's always a risk there is a bug in the service and it isn't a 
newbie feature, it would seem more sensible to take a cautious approach 
as advocated by section 9.1.1 of the Xen documentation ("Run the 
smallest number of neccessary services"), and disable the relocation 
server by default.
