Cool feature, definitely, but is the above statement the case even if
we don't use the --vm-poll arg? I ask, because, my usual method of
deployment is something like "koan ... --system=sysname && sleep 3
&&
xm console sysname", and if koan doesn't background after starting, I
won't get the console after the build starts.
If you want interactive monitoring of the install you could do:
koan --virt --system=foo --vm-poll & # background this operation
sleep 3 && virsh console sysname
(For KVM to get a console you'll need to add console=ttyS0 to the kernel
options in Cobbler (or on the koan command line), Xen will automatically
provide one ... note I'm using virsh to abstract out the xm/qemu command
differences so these steps work the same for xen and qemu/KVM -- man
"virsh" for more details).
