I''m pleased to announce the availabilty of another snapshot /
development
release of virt-manager, version 0.2.0. The major new capabilities in this
release include:
* First cut of a wiziard for creating both paravirt & fullyvirt
guest VMs. aka the gui equivalent of xenguest-install.py
You can find out more about this in the new screenshots section:
http://virt-manager.et.redhat.com/screenshots/install.html
* An embedded serial console viewer - no need to go to the shell and
use ''xm console'' anymore. This is actually used for the
paravirt
guest instllation if your XenU kernel does not support the new VNC
framebuffer (not yet in xen-unstable)
* Hooked up the config dialog for adjusting vcpus & memory for active
domains
* Extended RFB protocol handler code to support the ''desktop
resize''
extensions in the VNC widget - so the graphical console has correct
size when the guest switches screen resolutions
The tar.gz for the release can be found on the download page:
http://virt-manager.et.redhat.com/download.html
NB, I''m not providing RPMs in my people.redhat.com YUM repo because
we''re
intending to build this release straight into Fedora rawhide. I''ll send
a followup message when they''re avaiable there.
NB-2. there is a dependnacy on the ''xeninst'' python library
which is a
new library built from re-factoring xenguest-install.py You can get this
from rawhide in the python-xeninst RPM, or direct from the mercurial
repository
http://hg.et.redhat.com/virt/applications/xeninst--devel
Regards,
Dan.

[Fedora-xen] Re: [Libvir] New virt-manager release v0.2.0
FYI, as of this morning, RPMs for virt-manager 0.2.0 are available in the Fedora Rawhide repository (aka fedora-devel.repo in your yum configs) so this is on track for appearing in Fedora Core 6 test3. There is also now a ''virt-manager'' component in http://bugzilla.redhat.com where any issues can be reported. Regards, Dan. On Wed, Aug 23, 2006 at 03:05:15PM +0100, Daniel P.

[Fedora-xen] Kernel panic -- FC5, xen 3.0.2-3 and iptables/shorewall
I''ve been struggling to get xen going on FC5 ever since I upgraded a machine from FC4 to FC5 and xen 2 to xen 3. The machine seems to work fine, including creating guests and the virtual interfaces. Networking is fine, etc. But, when I use iptables (via Shorewall), I get a kernel panic almost immediately when attempting network IO. If I ssh into the box, it will take a few screeens of data before panicing. If I connect to the samba server on the machine from a windows client, the panic is immediate. I''ve tried loading netbk, blkbk, and netloop in the initrd. I''ve tried building all of the iptables modules into the kernel. So far, I''m unable to use iptables/shorewall without a panic. I don''t have a serial terminal connected, so I haven''t captured the xen output, but it looks similar to other network panics I''ve seen on this list. Something like "kernel not syncing" and something about an interrupt. kernel and xen versions are: 2.6.17-1.2174_FC5xen0 #1 SMP Tue Aug 8 17:03:19 EDT 2006 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux xen-3.0.2-3.FC5 These are packages from the standard FC5 rpms. Any ideas? My list of modules with and without iptables is below: Without iptables --------------- Module Size Used by bridge 51673 0 ipv6 246497 22 autofs4 24773 1 it87 23269 0 hwmon_vid 6721 1 it87 hwmon 7493 1 it87 i2c_isa 9409 1 it87 hidp 24257 2 l2cap 30401 5 hidp bluetooth 53285 2 hidp,l2cap sunrpc 149245 1 video 19525 0 button 10705 0 battery 13381 0 ac 8901 0 lp 16393 0 parport_pc 29669 1 parport 38409 2 lp,parport_pc ohci_hcd 24157 0 sis900 27072 0 i2c_sis630 11469 0 mii 9409 1 sis900 i2c_sis96x 9669 0 i2c_core 24769 4 it87,i2c_isa,i2c_sis630,i2c_sis96x serio_raw 11077 0 r8169 32585 0 dm_snapshot 20845 0 dm_zero 6081 0 dm_mirror 25105 0 dm_mod 58457 11 dm_snapshot,dm_zero,dm_mirror raid5 35137 1 xor 18377 1 raid5 ext3 125641 8 jbd 57813 1 ext3 With iptables ------------- Module Size Used by bridge 51673 0 ipv6 246497 22 autofs4 24773 1 it87 23269 0 hwmon_vid 6721 1 it87 hwmon 7493 1 it87 i2c_isa 9409 1 it87 hidp 24257 2 l2cap 30401 5 hidp bluetooth 53285 2 hidp,l2cap sunrpc 149245 1 video 19525 0 button 10705 0 battery 13381 0 ac 8901 0 lp 16393 0 parport_pc 29669 1 parport 38409 2 lp,parport_pc ohci_hcd 24157 0 sis900 27072 0 i2c_sis630 11469 0 mii 9409 1 sis900 i2c_sis96x 9669 0 i2c_core 24769 4 it87,i2c_isa,i2c_sis630,i2c_sis96x serio_raw 11077 0 r8169 32585 0 dm_snapshot 20845 0 dm_zero 6081 0 dm_mirror 25105 0 dm_mod 58457 11 dm_snapshot,dm_zero,dm_mirror raid5 35137 1 xor 18377 1 raid5 ext3 125641 8 jbd 57813 1 ext3 [root@zeus ~]# cat lsmod_with_shorewall Module Size Used by xt_tcpudp 7233 13 xt_state 6209 8 xt_pkttype 5953 4 iptable_raw 6209 0 xt_CLASSIFY 5953 0 xt_CONNMARK 6465 0 xt_MARK 6465 0 xt_length 6081 0 xt_connmark 6081 0 xt_physdev 6481 0 xt_policy 7617 8 xt_multiport 7233 4 xt_conntrack 6593 0 ipt_ULOG 11845 0 ipt_TTL 6337 0 ipt_ttl 5953 0 ipt_TOS 6337 0 ipt_tos 5825 0 ipt_TCPMSS 8129 0 ipt_SAME 6593 0 ipt_REJECT 9281 4 ipt_REDIRECT 6209 0 ipt_recent 14285 0 ipt_owner 6081 0 ipt_NETMAP 6209 0 ipt_MASQUERADE 7745 0 ipt_LOG 10177 7 ipt_iprange 5953 0 ipt_hashlimit 13001 0 ipt_ECN 7105 0 ipt_ecn 6337 0 ipt_DSCP 6337 0 ipt_dscp 5825 0 ipt_CLUSTERIP 12612 0 ipt_ah 5953 0 ipt_addrtype 5953 0 ip_nat_irc 6721 0 ip_nat_tftp 5953 0 ip_nat_ftp 7361 0 ip_conntrack_irc 10801 1 ip_nat_irc ip_conntrack_tftp 8377 1 ip_nat_tftp ip_conntrack_ftp 11697 1 ip_nat_ftp iptable_nat 11333 0 ip_nat 21485 8 ipt_SAME,ipt_REDIRECT,ipt_NETMAP,ipt_MASQUERADE,ip_nat_irc,ip_nat_tftp,ip_nat_ftp,iptable_nat ip_conntrack 54177 13 xt_state,xt_CONNMARK,xt_connmark,xt_conntrack,ipt_MASQUERADE,ip_nat_irc,ip_nat_tftp,ip_nat_ftp,ip_conntrack_irc,ip_conntrack_tftp,ip_conntrack_ftp,iptable_nat,ip_nat nfnetlink 10841 2 ip_nat,ip_conntrack iptable_mangle 6977 1 iptable_filter 7105 1 ip_tables 17157 4 iptable_raw,iptable_nat,iptable_mangle,iptable_filter x_tables 18117 37 xt_tcpudp,xt_state,xt_pkttype,xt_CLASSIFY,xt_CONNMARK,xt_MARK,xt_length,xt_connmark,xt_physdev,xt_policy,xt_multiport,xt_conntrack,ipt_ULOG,ipt_TTL,ipt_ttl,ipt_TOS,ipt_tos,ipt_TCPMSS,ipt_SAME,ipt_REJECT,ipt_REDIRECT,ipt_recent,ipt_owner,ipt_NETMAP,ipt_MASQUERADE,ipt_LOG,ipt_iprange,ipt_hashlimit,ipt_ECN,ipt_ecn,ipt_DSCP,ipt_dscp,ipt_CLUSTERIP,ipt_ah,ipt_addrtype,iptable_nat,ip_tables bridge 51673 0 ipv6 246497 22 autofs4 24773 1 it87 23269 0 hwmon_vid 6721 1 it87 hwmon 7493 1 it87 i2c_isa 9409 1 it87 hidp 24257 2 l2cap 30401 5 hidp bluetooth 53285 2 hidp,l2cap sunrpc 149245 1 video 19525 0 button 10705 0 battery 13381 0 ac 8901 0 lp 16393 0 parport_pc 29669 1 parport 38409 2 lp,parport_pc ohci_hcd 24157 0 sis900 27072 0 i2c_sis630 11469 0 mii 9409 1 sis900 i2c_sis96x 9669 0 i2c_core 24769 4 it87,i2c_isa,i2c_sis630,i2c_sis96x serio_raw 11077 0 r8169 32585 0 dm_snapshot 20845 0 dm_zero 6081 0 dm_mirror 25105 0 dm_mod 58457 11 dm_snapshot,dm_zero,dm_mirror raid5 35137 1 xor 18377 1 raid5 ext3 125641 8 jbd 57813 1 ext3
