Bonding Commands

Commands for working with network bonds, for resilience with physical interface failover. See the section called “Creating NIC Bonds on a Standalone Host” for details.

The bond object is a reference object which glues together master and member PIFs. The master PIF is the bonding interface which must be used as the overall PIF to refer to the bond. The member PIFs are a set of 2 or more physical interfaces which have been combined into the high-level bonded interface.

Bond Parameters

Bonds have the following parameters:

Parameter Name	Description	Type
uuid	unique identifier/object reference for the	read only
	bond
master	UUID for the master bond PIF	read only
members	set of UUIDs for the underlying bonded PIFs	read only set parameter

bond-create

bond-createnetwork-uuid=<network_uuid>pif-uuids=<pif_uuid_1,pif_uuid_2,...>

Create a bonded network interface on the network specified from a list of existing PIF objects. The command will fail if PIFs are in another bond already, if any member has a VLAN tag set, if the referenced PIFs are not on the same XenServer host, or if fewer than 2 PIFs are supplied.

bond-destroy

host-bond-destroy uuid=<bond_uuid>

Deletes a bonded interface specified by its UUID from a XenServer host.

CD Commands

Commands for working with physical CD/DVD drives on XenServer hosts.

CD Parameters

CDs have the following parameters:

Parameter Name	Description	Type
uuid	unique identifier/object reference for the CD	read only
name-label	Name for the CD	read/write
name-description	Description text for the CD	read/write
allowed-operations	A list of the operations that can be	read only set parameter
