similar to: Booting FreeBSD diskless in DomU

Maybe this question is a little stupid, but please help me. I am a newbie to Xen. When I tried to create a new domain "domain 1", I followed the Yan-Ching CHU''s guide on :installing quick file systems for new domains in Xen 1.2". But when I do "xc_dom_create.py -Dvmid=1", Xen seems to start to boot with some normal bootup information, but right after several

Hi   Below is what i get while creating a guest domain, please someone help me.   [root@xenserver xen]# uname -a Linux xenserver 2.6.21-2950.fc8xen #1 SMP Tue Oct 23 12:24:34 EDT 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux [root@xenserver xen]# [root@xenserver xen]# xm list Name                                      ID   Mem VCPUs      State   Time(s) Domain-0                                   0   930     2    

Hi, While investigating why the Xen 1.2 Demo CD won''t boot on a particular laptop, I noticed the download image appears to be truncated. "isoinfo -d -i xendemo-1.2.iso" reports: Logical block size is: 2048 Volume size is: 294080 That would suggest the image size should be 294080 * 2048 = 602275840 bytes. However I only have 292376 * 2048 = 598786048 bytes. The web server

Hello everyone, I grabbed xen-3.3.1 sources from the Mercurial repository (xen-3.3-testing.hg, changeset 475:1cf755387728, from Oct. 23, 2008) and built Xen from these sources on a 32-core (8 quad core Barcelona CPUs) SunFire machine, running an Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardyy Heron) distribution. Everything seemed to be going OK until I booted an HVM (also Ubuntu 8.04) domain. That domain boots normally but

I get the following warning when running xend start, and a similar warning sometimes when doing xm commands: /usr/lib/python/xen/xend/XendNode.py:26: RuntimeWarning: Python C API version mismatch for module xen.lowlevel.xc: This Python has API version 1012, module xen.lowlevel.xc has version 1011. import xen.lowlevel.xc /usr/lib/python/xen/xend/xenstore/xstransact.py:10: RuntimeWarning:

Excuse me, what did you mean by "certainly wrong: you''re ... to make real physical partition hda1 visible to the domain"? Can we use real physical partition in vbd_list? And what the "cmdline_root" should be? Thanks. Xiaofang > vbd_list = [ (''phy:hda1'',''sda1'',''w''),

The VMID field is 8 bits. Rather than allowing only up to 256 VMs per host reboot before things start "acting strange" instead maintain a simple bitmap of used VMIDs and allocate them statically to guests upon creation. This limits us to 256 concurrent VMs which is a reasonable improvement. Eventually we will want a proper scheme to allocate VMIDs on context switch. The existing code

Hi all, What's the best method to send automon call recordings (*1) to the voicemail box of the Asterisk user? Do you have to trap hangups, etc, or is there some global variable that can be set? Thanks! S.

Hi, I tried to issue: xm save VMID FILE, and got the following error: Error: Error: [Failure instance: Traceback: twisted.internet.error.ConnectionRefusedError, Connection was refused by other side: 111: Connection refused. xm create works fine, xend is running on domain 0, I can log in the VM through xm console VMID and ssh without problems. I can also stop and restart the domain.

I''m looking at building a xenstore-based watchdog, as described at http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2005-07/msg00597.html However, being somewhat new to xenstore, I''d appreciate some pointers. - What portions of the xenstore namespace should I use? I''m looking for at least two settings writable by the DomUs: A flag to enable/disable the watchdog

Hi Xen-users, I am trying to boot of my fist guest domain. The below attached message was thrown on the screen. I am not quite sure that the below information is sufficient to root cause the issue. Where do i look for additional logs to root cause the issue. Appreciate any info that you think might be useful. Thanks, Karthik xm create -c guest1.conf vmid=2 Using config file

Greetings to All. A little background about what I am trying to do, and please excuse the length of this post. I am setting up a voicemail (VM) system based on Asterisk. From what I've heard Vonage uses Asterisk as their VM platform as well. I am running 1.2beta with a MYSQL backend for extensions and VM user info. All the sound files and vm messages are being stored through an NFS

Hi,all, I cannot get my network in domain1 work. Here is my configuration: in dom0: I have two network cards, the ip addrs are 141.213.10.110 and 192.168.0.4, respectively. 141.213.10.110 is an external IP and can access internet directly. The gateway should be 141.213.10.1. /etc/xen/vfp: the domain1 configuration file, I created domain1 using ''xm create vmid=1 -f

I have the following script that when executed, consumes memory and makes the system inaccessible. All process are halted. First, I don't understand what is wrong with the script Secondly, I'm surprised that Linux allows this to run unchecked to the detriment of the entire system. ---- SCRIPT ----- #!/bin/sh FTP="/usr/bin/ftp" # VMID="asystem.ourcompany.com"

I''ve been recently testing the Xendemo CD and I can say that Xen is awesome. I''d like to start deploying it initially in some development/testing servers. However the limitation of the max memory of 800MB or so per virtual machine is a show stopper for many applications. Are there plans to raise the limit to something higher (like 2GB or so)? How difficult would it be?

Hello! I''m working on a guest OS port which uses NetBSD drivers, and I''m currently working on the netfront support.

Parts of the code with line numbers is given below, and I''ll try to explain where the problem occurs. The basic problem is that

Hello everybody, I''m playing with Xen and trying to extend DomU disk space. My Configuration: Dom0: all Xen machine are HVM. They''re installed on LVM.
