Hi all, i have trouble to PXE boot KVM-based (network of Linux-bridge)
Virtual Machines: very slow transfer pxelinux.cfg.
====== tcpdump on KVM host system ===[root at kvm-test01 ~]# tcpdump -i virbr1 |

================================
10.0.5.187 PXE booted VM, 10.0.5.50 DHCP server, 10.0.5.25 - tftpd and
http (for transfer files and rpms after load kernel)
dhcpd and tftpd is not real host: it's OpenVZ container(one container)
on another hardware host, and (only for test) is VMs of virtual box on
laptop (with another IP, i don't copy/paste, becouse KVM VM boot
slower to)
I try load:
(a) some hardware hosts with OVZ containers tftpd and dhcpd - it's
well and load fast,
(b) some hardware hosts with Virtual BOX VM tftpd and dhcpd - it's
well and load fast,
(c) Virtual BOX VM with OpenVZ VE dhdcpd and tftpd - it's well, and load
fast
(d) KVM VM with OpenVZ CT and VirtualBOX VM dhcpd and tftpd - very slow load
(e) KVM host system with OpenVZ CT and VirtualBOX VM dhcpd and tftpd -
it's well and load fast
I use software:
a) Cobbler to PXE installation on OpenVZ VE:
[root at cobbler01 ~]# rpm -qa | egrep -e '(syslinux|cobbler|dhcp|tftp)'
tftp-server-0.49-2.el5.centos
cobbler-1.6.6-1.el5
dhcp-3.0.5-21.el5_4.1
syslinux-3.11-4
[root at cobbler01 ~]#
b) Centos 5.4 + KVM + libvirt on VM hosts:
[root at kvm-test01 ~]# rpm -qa | egrep -ie
'(^kvm|^libvirt|^kernel|^centos)'
kvm-qemu-img-83-105.el5_4.27
kernel-2.6.18-164.15.1.el5
kvm-83-105.el5_4.27
centos-release-notes-5.4-4
centos-release-5-4.el5.centos.1
libvirt-0.6.3-20.1.el5_4
libvirt-python-0.6.3-20.1.el5_4
libvirt-0.6.3-20.1.el5_4
[root at kvm-test01 ~]#
