The dom0 plugin code had been using `pickle` for serializing input and `json` for serializing output which was needlessly inconsistent. This patch makes the code use `pickle`--chosen for its better handling of `datetime` objects--for both sending and receiving data. This patch also refactors the code so that neither the caller nor the callee need to explicitly worry about serialization: the caller just passes in args and kwargs, and the callee's function signature just accepts the args and kwargs as usual. Bonus: Removes unecessary imports Change-Id: I3abb42eeebd8d37d67e6c26fa7bcae66d876b3ee
This directory contains files that are required for the XenAPI support. They should be installed in the XenServer / Xen Cloud Platform dom0. If you install them manually, you will need to ensure that the newly added files are executable. You can do this by running the following command (from dom0): chmod a+x /etc/xapi.d/plugins/* Otherwise, you can build an rpm as detailed in: $NOVA_ROOT/plugins/xenserver/xenapi/contrib/ and install the rpm by running the following command (from dom0): rpm -i openstack-xen-plugins.rpm
