I''ve installed Xen Hypervisor 3.0.3 (CentOS 5.7, i386) inside Virtualbox 4.1.16 (Mageia 1, i686) and have noticed that Dom0 is consuming 85% of the memory allocated to the VM (1GB) so I''d like to reduce this as much as possible in order to make more room for one or two VM''s. Is there a minimum amount of vRAM that can/should be allocated to Dom0 (using the dom0_mem boot

Is it possible to create a highly-available OCFS2 cluster (i.e., A storage cluster that mitigates the single point of failure [SPoF] created by storing an OCFS2 volume on a single LUN)? The OCFS2 Project Page makes this claim... > OCFS2 is a general-purpose shared-disk cluster file system for Linux capable of providing both high performance and high availability. ...but without backing-up

1. I''d like to experiment with XCP by creating a nested arrangment - XCP on VirtualBox - but need to know what "version" of Linux to specify when creating the VM. 2. I''m currently using a 32-bit host. (Mageia-1 is/was only available as a 32-bit O/S when I installed it.) Does XCP require a 64-bit architecture? Eric Pretorious Truckee, CA

Has anyone experimented with installing XCP from a USB thumb drive? Is it possible? How was the installation media installed to the USB thumb drive (e.g., dd)?

When I attempt to migrate a VM from one host to another (sles-xen-2 -> sles-xen-1) I get the error message: > sles-xen-2:~ # xm migrate --live SLES-11-SP2-1 192.168.1.3 > Error: can''t connect: [Errno 111] Connection refused > ... What might be the problem? FWIW: I''ve already verified that iptables rules have been cleared and that xend does not have any ports open

I''m new to Xen and I''ve never attended XenSummit but I did look at the Presentations & Videos and the Agenda from 2011 and I''m wondering if XenSummit 2012 be a good venue for learning more about designing, deploying, and managing Xen-based clouds? (The XenSummit 2012 agenda hasn''t been published yet.) Eric Pretorious Truckee, CA

How I go about assigning sections of iscsi for virtual hard drives . should go about assigning Should I export the whole 8TB as one iscsi and then use lvm to create smaller virtual disk. Or should I
