Pool Commands
Commands for working with pools. A pool is an aggregate of one or more XenServer hosts. A pool uses one or
more shared storage repositories so that the VMs running on one XenServer host in the pool can be migrated in
near-real time (while still running, without needing to be shut down and brought back up) to another XenServer
host in the pool. Each XenServer host is really a pool consisting of a single member by default. When a XenServer
host is joined to a pool, it is designated as a member, and the pool it has joined becomes the master for the pool.
The singleton pool object can be listed with the standard object listing command (xe pool-list), and its parameters
manipulated with the standard parameter commands. See the section called “Low-level Parameter Commands”
for details.
