Description
The xm toolstack is the only one available on OpenNebula right now to interact with Xen Hypervisors, but it is also deprecated, and new Xen versions will probably drop it. OpenNebula should add support for the xl toolstack, which should be quite simple given that xl tries to use the same nomenclature as xm, and also supports the same set of commands. Doing a simple:
sed 's/xm/xl/'
Should provide a good start for migrating OpenNebula Xen scripts to xl.
