Hello, I have set up an external network on my dom0 xcp server and use an external dhcp server/ internet gateway. Creating a PV ubuntu 12.04 VM using the automatically created Networkbridges "Network X" works without a problem, as the VM is able to retrieve an IP address. When I connect the VM to the external network created via Xencenter, it is not able to get an IP address. What am I doing wrong? Here are further informations XCP version 1.6.07 XCP build number 61365c (the problem occurred with the previous version too) External Network name: Harlan - Harmony - Netzwerk XCP dom0 server name: flicka Xencenter version: 6.1 The external network has the VLAN Tag 1 following: xe pif-list, xe network-list, xe vif-list, xe vm-vif-list, xe vm-list [root@flicka ~]# xe pif-list uuid ( RO) : 50e0e678-e798-79f0-a4c4-e9dc4ae42ec6 device ( RO): eth1 currently-attached ( RO): true VLAN ( RO): -1 network-uuid ( RO): 64bc3ee4-3ebe-b2a7-a327-30537277f845 uuid ( RO) : 02336de2-39cb-3958-46ec-1ac8822dad8d device ( RO): eth4 currently-attached ( RO): true VLAN ( RO): -1 network-uuid ( RO): a724a580-355a-a440-de45-5c1653087413 uuid ( RO) : 003e5dee-a64f-91ae-d0e3-43f717e88bf9 device ( RO): eth3 currently-attached ( RO): true VLAN ( RO): -1 network-uuid ( RO): be0dd0a8-9386-9b00-16f0-064ec762f56e uuid ( RO) : 65601b85-90d8-34e2-3950-3fe39122f1e8 device ( RO): eth5 currently-attached ( RO): true VLAN ( RO): -1 network-uuid ( RO): e6d780d8-6aef-6d8f-6348-43011ef1dbad uuid ( RO) : 47cb3080-54e4-3e17-70fd-14c059ac2437 device ( RO): eth4 currently-attached ( RO): false VLAN ( RO): 1 network-uuid ( RO): f9732d94-bf77-6738-31b5-ec11b4d77760 uuid ( RO) : 389df5de-a8d2-d8ad-6386-ea68b7dbfe45 device ( RO): eth0 currently-attached ( RO): true VLAN ( RO): -1 network-uuid ( RO): c92cf8c5-3eb8-5f61-cf5e-fa92fa511049 uuid ( RO) : c772ca35-07ae-2a59-e2a5-fe612b0353cd device ( RO): eth2 currently-attached ( RO): true VLAN ( RO): -1 network-uuid ( RO): f8db3853-afec-efec-74fb-7f0b634b6e1e [root@flicka ~]# xe network-list uuid ( RO) : 0f415cd6-a248-a23d-c15f-24ec43ec9a34 name-label ( RW): Host internal management network name-description ( RW): Network on which guests will be assigned a private link-local IP address which can be used to talk XenAPI bridge ( RO): xenapi uuid ( RO) : a724a580-355a-a440-de45-5c1653087413 name-label ( RW): Pool-wide network associated with eth4 name-description ( RW): bridge ( RO): xenbr4 uuid ( RO) : e6d780d8-6aef-6d8f-6348-43011ef1dbad name-label ( RW): Pool-wide network associated with eth5 name-description ( RW): bridge ( RO): xenbr5 uuid ( RO) : be0dd0a8-9386-9b00-16f0-064ec762f56e name-label ( RW): Pool-wide network associated with eth3 name-description ( RW): bridge ( RO): xenbr3 uuid ( RO) : c92cf8c5-3eb8-5f61-cf5e-fa92fa511049 name-label ( RW): Pool-wide network associated with eth0 name-description ( RW): bridge ( RO): xenbr0 uuid ( RO) : 64bc3ee4-3ebe-b2a7-a327-30537277f845 name-label ( RW): Pool-wide network associated with eth1 name-description ( RW): bridge ( RO): xenbr1 uuid ( RO) : f8db3853-afec-efec-74fb-7f0b634b6e1e name-label ( RW): Pool-wide network associated with eth2 name-description ( RW): bridge ( RO): xenbr2 uuid ( RO) : f9732d94-bf77-6738-31b5-ec11b4d77760 name-label ( RW): Harlan - Harmony - Netzwerk name-description ( RW): TV - Server Harmony und owncloud - Server Harlan auf :D8 bridge ( RO): xapi0 [root@flicka ~]# xe vif-list uuid ( RO) : 3aa9a6e6-a430-6588-9f8e-b7e37e6990c9 vm-uuid ( RO): 064be010-2877-aaf2-6a1c-24e3d4dd8e98 device ( RO): 1 network-uuid ( RO): f9732d94-bf77-6738-31b5-ec11b4d77760 [root@flicka ~]# xe vm-vif-list uuid ( RO) : 3aa9a6e6-a430-6588-9f8e-b7e37e6990c9 vm-name-label ( RO): Harlan device ( RO): 1 MAC ( RO): b2:ef:51:61:de:4e network-uuid ( RO): f9732d94-bf77-6738-31b5-ec11b4d77760 network-name-label ( RO): Harlan - Harmony - Netzwerk [root@flicka ~]# xe vm-list uuid ( RO) : 064be010-2877-aaf2-6a1c-24e3d4dd8e98 name-label ( RW): Harlan power-state ( RO): running uuid ( RO) : f37e707a-04ac-48ad-b693-0d017aaf6cdd name-label ( RW): Control domain on host: flicka power-state ( RO): running I would appreciate any help regarding this issue kind regards, Markus
