Subject: What is the option 'e' used for in 'xl create' command
Date: Mon, 19 Mar 2018 13:14:19 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <36a98a9f-a164-8fb6-7dc1-e662184ff22d@oracle.com> (raw)

Hi,

There is an 'e' option when running the following xl command:

- xl create
- xl restore
- xl migrate
- xl remus

The 'e' option is used to "Do not wait in the background (on <host>) for the
death of the domain". This option dates back to Dec 2009.

Would you please help me understand the objective of the below patch introduced
in Dec 2009?

Thank you very much for your help!

Dongli Zhang
