Which services should I add to init.d?

Hi, have a working Xen 4.3.0 on an Ubuntu Server 12.04.2. I built xen from
source and currently on each reboot of the dom0 I need to manually start
xencommons else I get a error when I attempt to use xl.

I note there are 3 services which haven't got init scripts to automatically
start...

xencommons
xenwatchdog
xendomains

Which do I need to autostart and what values should I be using in my
update-rc.d command?

(have previously used "update-rc.d -f xencommons start 70 2 3 4 5 . stop 10
0 1 6 ." but I don't understand the "why" to the numbers?)

Any help appreciated.

Kelvin

You need xencommons always.

It is safe to always enable xendomains, but you only actually need it if
you want to auto start domains on boot or auto stop them on dom0 reboot.

enable xenwatchdog if you want to enable the watchdog.

They are initlevels and priorities, they are described in the
update-rc.d manpage.

You can most likely just use "update-rc.d foo enable".
