Command line interface xe vm-list HVM-boot-policy="BIOS order" power-state=halted will only list those VMs for which both the field [power-state] has the value halted, and for which the field [HVM-boot-policy] has the value BIOS order. It is also possible to filter the list based on the value of keys in maps, or on the existence of values in a set. The syntax for the first of these is map-name:key=value, and the second is set-name:contains=value For scripting, a useful technique is passing [--minimal] on the command line, causing xe to print only the first field in a comma-separated list. For example, the command xe vm-list --minimal on a XenServer Host with three VMs installed gives the three UUIDs of the VMs, for example: a85d6717-7264-d00e-069b-3b1d19d56ad9,aaa3eec5-9499-bcf3-4c03-af10baea96b7, \ 42c044de-df69-4b30-89d9-2c199564581d 5.4. xe command reference This section provides a reference to the xe commands.

5.4. xe command reference
This section provides a reference to the xe commands. They are grouped by objects that the commands
address, and listed alphabetically.
5.4.1. Bonding commands
Commands for working with network bonds, for resilience with physical interface failover. See Section 4.2.4,
“Creating NIC bonds” 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
bond
read only
master
UUID for the master bond PIF
read only
members
set of UUIDs for the underlying bonded
PIFs
read only set parameter
5.4.1.1. bond-create
bond-create
network-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.
