[Pkg-xen-devel] Bug#433780: xen-utils-common: /etc/init.d/xend restart should restart xenstored and xenconsole

[Russell Coker]

Package: xen-utils-common
Version: 3.0.3-0-2
Severity: normal

There should be a clean and clearly defined way to restart all the Xen daemons
in the case of error.

If the file /var/lib/xenstored/tdb is corrupt then you must stop xenstored,
rm the file, and then restart it.  Currently there is no defined way of doing
this so the solution is to kill -9 the process, rm the file, and then reboot.
