I''m pretty sure there are some. I did a quick search of Dell 2850 at http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/ It comes up with about 8 pages of hits (but I''m not sure how good those last 7 pages of hits are - I only looked at the first page). -- Mats> -----Original Message----- > From: xen-users-bounces@lists.xensource.com > [mailto:xen-users-bounces@lists.xensource.com] On Behalf Of > Adam Kosmin > Sent: 03 May 2006 16:17 > To: xen-users@lists.xensource.com > Subject: [Xen-users] Xen 3.0.2 on Dell 2850 > > Is anyone running Xen on this hardware?

Both Xen2-testing and Xen-unstable seem to be running just fine. Dell systems have a known issue with the on-board USB controller, which is a piece of crap. Disabling USB from BIOS or just leaving out USB support from your xen0 kernel will improve stability a lot. -- Jussi Hämäläinen +358 3 3551 8086 University of Tampere System administrator +358 50 5900641 Computer Centre ccjuha@uta.fi TietoPinni 4166 http://www.uta.fi/laitokset/tkk _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
Yes, this did the trick and I really appreciate the lists support in helping me with the issue. Did I miss this "known issue" somewhere in the faqs, docs, wiki? If so, please excuse me. If not, perhaps it would be wise for us to cover hardware-specific issues like this on the wiki. Thoughts?

I too an using a Dell Power Edge 2850 with Dual XEON EM64T CPU''s. I had Xen 2.0.7 running very well and stable on one of my servers, but it took 4 months of testing before we discovered the USB controller was causing the server to hang randomly. I have currently graduated to Xen 3.0.2 based on Red Hat ES 4. When I compile a Xen enabled kernel and try to boot I get the message "Dom0 image not a Xen-compatible Elf image. I found the previous posts where Xen users got the same error and have confirmed that in menuconfig, I have XEN_CONFIG set to yes. I installed the same RedHat installation and Xen installation files on a Power Edge SC430 with a Pentium4 EM64T CPU and can boot with no errors. Can any of you Wise Xen Guru''s shed some light as to where else I can look to determine why I recieve this error? Thank you. Max Baro Technical Support Supervisor FACTS Services, Inc.
