Hi folks. I have some old servers running Windows and Linux and I want to create a HPC cluster. However I wanna know if Xen can distribute a single virtual machine along multiple nodes to increase it''s performance. -- Allysson Steve Mota Lacerda Laboratório de Inteligência Computacional - LABICOMP Programa de Pós-Graduação em Engenharia Elétrica – PPGEE Universidade Federal de Minas

Does anyone, is anyone running Xen on NFSv3 successfully? What are some of your pain points/success points? Have you tried a clustered file system with better results such as DRBD or GFS?

I installed Debian sarge amd64 on a Intel em64t processor machines and have been using the Xen 3.0 packages in backports.org. I can boot a 32 bit guest OS fine if I use the vmlinuz-2.6.16-1-xen-em64t-p4kernel, but when trying to use the stock vmlinuz-2.6.16-xen from their binary tarball, or building it from the source package I get the following error: xentest:/var/log# xm create debian0.cfg -c

Is there a documented approach somewhere for performing an unattended ''bare metal'' install of Xen? The Xen Users'' Manual describes an installation flow that requires a host OS on the target machine. This host OS is used for installation of Xen, but Xen does not execute "on top of" this OS (rather Xen executes directly "on top of" the hardware

Hi, Anybody please tell me how to have a PV Linux with graphics? I succesfully created some PV Linux with debootstrap and xen-tools. But then all the images must be started with "xm create -c" command, and everything then is console, with no X Window. In short, I want to have PV Linux, but with X. How to do that?

Hi, We are planning to have LVM being used over a network of 3 h/w machines(500 GB Disk each) Each hardware machine will have 2-3 domUs. Can we store these domUs as a Logical Volumes stored across Network of these 3 machines? Can one DomU exceed the 500 GB (physical drive size) and store say 1 TB of data across the networked Physical Volumes? Has anyone done this before? Thanks and regards,

Hi all, I am running Xen 3.2-1 / 2.6.18 on Debian Etch (Dom0). I setup a Dom0 with several DomUs (Linux). Each DomU disk is a LV partition. I have been seeing a few mails about backups and LVM and just wanted to make sure that what I am doing is correct. Each DomU with a database has a cron that dumps the db with mysqldump. Later on, Dom0 will do an LVM Snapshot of all DomUs and then do a

Hello, Queries: 1 - what is the best RAID (0,1,5,10,50) for server running very, very VM instances ??? 2 - and config of stripes/element sizes (32, 64, 128, 256, etc, KB) ?? 3 - in the configuration of VM, exit one difference in performance between image file (disk:/) or LVM partition (phy:/) ??? any URL or docs for read about this theme ? mmm.. it is all for moment. thanks -- -- Victor

What is the simplest OS I can install in Xen, preferably Linux based, and don''t tell me MS-DOS :). I have installed a minimal version of Fedora, but I want something that is even less cluttered. I have looked at Minix, but it is not fully supported. I need something small, lightweight (doesn''t have to be multi-threaded or anything), that will run small C and Assembler programs

Dear List, I''m thinking about using xen productive in our datacenter, i''m still testing around with it. Now I got some questions, just for basic understanding, we got for example this environment: 2 Nodes 1 SCSI Pool server (Connected via scsi to both nodes) Now I want to build a "cluster" so i would like to make this: Node 1 -> Primary -| | --> domU

I''ve been brainstorming... I want to create a 2-node HA active/active cluster (In other words I want to run a handful of DomUs on one node and a handful on another). In the event of a failure I want all DomUs to fail over to the other node and start working immediately. I want absolutely no single-points-of-failure. I want to do it with free software and no special hardware. I want

Hi, folks, I''m attempting to run an e-mail server on Xen. The e-mail system is Novell GroupWise, and it serves about 250 users. The disk volume for the e-mail is on my SAN, and I''ve attached the FC LUN to my Xen host, then used the "phy:/dev..." method to forward the disk through to the domU. I''m running into an issue with high I/O wait on the box (~250%)
