Since they are scripts, they can be edited in any location. To me it is not clear what the case would be to diverge from the vendor provided variant. IMO these are part of the Xen tools, there is nothing to configure in these scripts. If for whatever reason the local admin must run his own variant, at least for disk= and vif= the location can be changed with 'script='. I'm sure they are in /etc because in the early days of Xen there was a hope the local admin would do all the work to connect backends and frontends in a way he likes. I think this is not true since more than a decade, the scripts are always tied to the tools version. The API is now mature since a while, there are very few changes in the past years. A configure knob could be added to set XEN_SCRIPT_DIR at build time, if there is really a usecase for such knob. Olaf Attachment:
