[Xen-users] the [watchdog] thread

[Florian Heigl <florian.heigl@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I wonder if the watchdog in xen PV domUs is documented somewhere ...

Is anyone using it?
How does it work?
What steps are needed in the domU and in the dom0 to enable it?
And: Is / will it also be available in PVOPS kernels?

I ended up writing a xenstore based one in ksh that is in fact quite
robust and kills our VMs if they do their thing* - whereas nothing
else ever kicked in.

Greetings,
Florian

copied by the kvm devs.
