Supported services
==================
This list can be incomplete as VM can implement any additional service without
knowledge of qubes-core code.
meminfo-writer
Default: enabled everywhere excluding NetVM
This service reports VM memory usage to dom0, which effectively enables
dynamic memory management for the VM.
.. note::
This service is enforced to be set by dom0 code. If you try to
remove it (reset to default state), will be recreated with the rule: enabled
if VM have no PCI devices assigned, otherwise disabled.
qubes-firewall
Default: enabled only in ProxyVM
Dynamic firewall manager, based on settings in dom0 (qvm-firewall, firewall tab in qubes-manager).
This service is not supported in netvms.
qubes-network
Default: enabled only in NetVM and ProxyVM
Expose network for other VMs. This includes enabling network forwarding, MASQUERADE, DNS redirection and basic firewall.
qubes-network
Default: enabled only in NetVM and ProxyVM
Expose network for other VMs. This includes enabling network forwarding,
MASQUERADE, DNS redirection and basic firewall.
qubes-update-check
Default: enabled
Notify dom0 about updates available for this VM. This is shown in
qubes-manager as 'update-pending' flag.
cups
Default: enabled only in AppVM
Enable CUPS service. The user can disable cups in VM which do not need
printing to speed up booting.
crond
Default: disabled
Enable CRON service.
network-manager
Default: enabled in NetVM
Enable NetworkManager. Only VM with direct access to network device needs
this service, but can be useful in ProxyVM to ease VPN setup.
clocksync
Default: disabled
Enable NTPD (or equivalent) service. If disabled, VM will sync clock with
selected VM (aka ClockVM) instead. ClockVM for particular VM can be set in
policy of qubes.GetDate service, using target= parameter.
qubes-yum-proxy
Deprecated name for qubes-updates-proxy.
qubes-updates-proxy
Default: enabled in NetVM
Provide proxy service, which allow access only to yum repos. Filtering is
done based on URLs, so it shouldn't be used as leak control (pretty easy to
bypass), but is enough to prevent some erroneous user actions.
yum-proxy-setup
Deprecated name for updates-proxy-setup.
updates-proxy-setup
Default: enabled in AppVM (also in templates)
Setup yum at startup to use qubes-yum-proxy service.
.. note::
this service is automatically enabled when you allow VM to access updates
proxy and disabled when you deny access to updates proxy.
disable-default-route
Default: disabled
Disables the default route for networking. Enabling this service
will prevent the creation of the default route, but the VM will
still be able to reach it's direct neighbors. The functionality
is implemented in /usr/lib/qubes/setup-ip.
disable-dns-server
Default: disabled
Enabling this service will result in an empty /etc/resolv.conf.
The functionality is implemented in /usr/lib/qubes/setup-ip.
