Today I upgraded to latest xvm-3.4 gate. I''ve found out yesterday that vlan usage is really easy (got a linux pv on host 1 with a indiana pv on host2 in one network, by just adding ,vlanid=2 to network definitions). Working like a charm. Today I tried to add a fresh installed win2008r2 x64 to this vlan, with the same procedure. But failed, no usable network, it was just like I have chosen wrong network. After removing the vlan stuff, all system are working now. Could someone explain what the problem is about? Florian

Did the Solaris and Linux guests continue to work after you added the windows guest? Did you have this connected to a switch with vlan support? Did you try any other HVM domains without PV drivers? Did you try snooping the Window''s VNIC to see if anything was moving though it? I assume you only had one NIC assigned to the windows guest? MRJ

Where do you all get properly working PV drivers for a x64 win2008(R2), as far as I know there are nothing that is at least a bit working, especially on xvm...

I was wondering if you tried a different kind of HVM guest without PV drivers, e.g. s10u5 or RHEL3, etc... i.e. is it specific to windows or a HVM guest without PV drivers.>> Did you try snooping the Window''s VNIC to see if anything was moving >> though it?
