在centos上安装xe命令行的作用就不用多说了。首先在xenserver的安装iso中找到xe命令的rpm包(在client_install这个目录下),然后拷贝到centos上。如果直接用rpm命令安装xe-cli-6.1.0-59235p.i686.rpm这个包,会提示依赖错误。这时改用yum命令来安装,它会自动帮我们处理依赖。

代码如下:

[root@cloudstack-ms ~]# rpm -ivh xe-cli-6.1.0-59235p.i686.rpm

这时我们改用yum来安装,它会自动帮我们处理依赖问题
 

复制代码
代码如下:

yum install xe-cli-6.1.0-59235p.i686.rpm

 

安装好后,执行xe命令如果报错
 

复制代码
代码如下:

Unhandled exception
File "stunnel.ml", line 137,characters 20-25: Pattern matching failed

 
这时需要安装stunnel包,使用如下命令安装

复制代码
代码如下:

yum install stunnel

 

都安装好后,可以正常执行xe命令,基本用法如下

 

复制代码
代码如下:

xe -s ip -u username -pw password command param
-s选项指明xenserver服务器的IP地址
-u选项指明XenServer服务器的用户名
-pw选项指明用户密码
command是xe子命令,如host-list等
param是命令的参数,如uuid=xxxxx等
