How does the Citrix Virtual machine self-boot set up?

for virtual machine self-booting, VMware and Citrix settings are different, and friends who have used VMware Virtualization technology should be more aware thatVMware virtual machines can be set up for virtual machine self-booting in a visual interface. And if you want the Citrix virtual machine to boot from the XenServer host is not so simple, because Citrix gives XenCenter the Visual setting operation function is very few, And do not directly move the mouse to complete the self-launch function, but this does not mean that the Citrix virtual machine does not implement the self-boot function, if you want to implement this function, you need to complete the following steps at the command line, you can implement the virtual machine self-boot.

1. first we need to get the UUID that needs to start the virtual machine 's pool, thecommand is as follows:

[email protected]/]# XE pool-list

1. with the previous step, you can get the corresponding UUID, and then set the pool for the virtual machine to support Auto_poweron, where the uuid is the pool uuid, as entered tab to come out, not the virtual machine UUID, the Operation command is as follows:

[email protected]/]# XE pool-param-setuuid=0e5056e9-f95f-e78b-23f3-23da41e27d31

Other-config:auto_poweron=true

1. then we need to get the virtual machines that need to be self-booting UUID, command as follows:

[email protected]/]# XE vm-list

1. set the virtual machine Auto_poweron, where the uuid is the virtual machine uuid, the Operation command is as follows:

[email protected]/]# XE Vm-param-set uuid=1d6fc3c5-7078-ff8e-763b-d5468e79c8d8 other-config:auto_poweron=true

1. generally after the 4 steps above,the Windows virtual machine is still not self-booting (Linux virtual machine is definitely not a problem), you need to edit the boot configuration file /etc/rc.local , add the following code at the end

Sleep 20

Xe Vm-start uuid=214c1cf2-8b79-1511-9d29-297722a01f71

Note: Sleep means that XenServer Start - seconds and then automatically open the virtual machine
Here's UUID Replace with self-priming required Windows of the virtual machine UUID

1. If you need to start a virtual machine more, and do not want the virtual machine to start at the same time, you can follow the following actions to set up, at the end of the boot configuration file /etc/rc.local Add the following command:

Xenserver02 virtual machine with host boot from boot

Sleep 30

1. Set up all virtual machines to boot automatically:

[[Email protected]/]# for i in ' Xe vm-listparams=uuid--minimal|sed ' s/,//g ';d o xe vm-param-set uuid= $i Other-config:aut O_poweron=true;done
