Measures reported by XenPoolVmStatusTest
This test enables administrators to determine how many guests have registered with the XenServer, and how many of these are currently running. In addition, the test also indicates whether any guests have migrated to or from the virtual server. XenMotion is a feature using which virtual machines can be moved from server to server within a Citrix XenServer resource pool without service interruption, making zero-downtime server maintenance possible, and
enabling administrators to move resource-hungry running applications to take advantage of available compute power. In short, the XenPoolVmStatusTest
monitors the effectiveness of XenMotion.

host and later, after rebooting it, return the XenVM to its original running state. |
