The latest version avail= able in the 4.0.x branch is 4.0.4 and there's also 4.1.3 available. Is anyon= e here close enough to the Xen project that they might know what the differe= nce is or if it's safe to run 4.1.3 tools everywhere? If so, I'll get the po= rt updated to 4.1.3. >=20 >=20 > Thanks! > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-xen@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-xen > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-xen-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" Hi,=20 What exactly you need doing?. I explain... Basically Xen-tools are used for w= ritting to Xenstore database through Xenstored at dom0. If you execute a wri= te and a read for the records of a concretely vm and from it (and same test f= rom dom0 for the vm records) and changes are seen from the own vm and from d= om0 with they're Xen-tools nothing should be worring at all. Apart from this= they don't do nothing else... Unless nothing significant I remember now... T= he important part is the kernel related one. So if you administer you're FreeBSD machine as should (update, use it proper= ly and so...) nothing should happen if previous test indicated has succeded.= Remember you can always backup you're actual Xentools with a pkg_create -Rb= nameofxentoolsport before performing the upgrade.
