Hi, Just posting this on the list too in case anyone else has experience with the OCAML version of xenstored….

Hi Boris and Pasi,
I checked out the latest xen-testing from mercurial, and edited the Config.mk file to have the OCAML version of xenstored built.
I checked and made sure that I have all the patches, and my xm info shows 4.0.1-rc1. After that I built using:
make xen; make tools; make stubdom
make install-xen;
make install-tools PYTHON_PREFIX_ARG=;
make install-stubdom
Unfortunately, it looks like even though the new OCAML version of xenstored is built, it appears in /usr/bin/xenstored instead of the usual “/usr/sbin/xenstored” and the default part of the xenstored to use is the standard one (not the OCAML one)…
Just FYI: This is an Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit system.
root@ BlackBox:/# ll /usr/bin/xenstored (new OCAML xenstored I just built..)
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 925039 2010-05-25 10:15 /usr/bin/xenstored
root@ BlackBox:/# ll /usr/sbin/xenstored (<< Standard C xenstored)
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 94728 2010-05-01 00:36 /usr/sbin/xenstored
root@ BlackBox:/# which xenstored
/usr/sbin/xenstored
root@BlackBox:/#
thanks
Yuvraj

make install-tools PYTHON_PREFIX_ARG=
Wrong syntax when install tools
Boris
BTW. Just a notice.

Just browse through http://xenbits.xen.org/xen-unstable.hd and http://xenbits.xen.org/xen-4.0-testing.hg changelogs.
xen-4.0-testing.hg is currently at 4.0.1-rc1 stage.
