I''ve installed a FC5 domU under RHEL5-beta2 dom0 with virt-manager. As the disk for domU I used: phy:/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol02,xvda,w In the domU I have partitions: /dev/xvda1 on / type ext3 (rw) /dev/xvda2 on /var type ext3 (rw) How do I access these partitions from dom0? For example if I take an LVM snapshot of LogVol02, how do I mount the / partition of the domU installed on

Hey all, This utility (from Qemu) might be useful to anyone who has multiple partitions on a file-backed VBD and wants occasionally to mount them in dom0. http://www.dad-answers.com/qemu/utilities/QEMU-HD-Mounter/lomount/ You can tell it what partition to mount out of the file and it sorts out the offsets, etc. by parsing the partition table. This allows you to get around the loop driver''s lack of support for partitioning. May be useful to someone! Mark ---------------------------------------------...

Hi, in order to use lomount on ia64 machines (which use EFI partitions aka GPT), I have heavily patched lomount. It now handles MBR and GPT partitions. It handles large files (which is IMHO necessary). It displays the partition if -partition option is missing (small bonus!) Also I think the logic is simpler. Tested on MBR a...

lomount has been removed from xen-utils, but the same issue is still true for the rest of the packages binaries. Richard richih at adamantium:~$ apt-file search lomount richih at adamantium:~$

Package: xen-utils-3.0.3-1 Version: 3.0.3-0-2 I think a Xen user expects to have lomount available as it's standard part of the upstream distribution. It's quite useful to access images created on fedora, or netbsd domU installations. Currently it's put somewhere deep in /usr/lib/xen-utils*/.../bin I also don't understand why the bins are placed there and an extra wr...

Nice time. # make uninstall ... rm -rf //boot/*xen* ... if somebody use "xen" in kernel name (maybe as suffix), so it will be deleted from /boot/ too. Thanks. Denis.

Chaps, Perhaps this question is a little basic for this list but I''m not really sure of the simplest method or best tool for the job. I''ve created some images with `dd=/dev/zero ....` and I''m using them for the domUs now. Some of them have been running for a few months with no probs. Trouble is that I''d like to create a separate partition within the domU.

I don''t know what has happened because know I can''t even get this guest booting.

Hi I have been using pygrub for most of the needs. Was trying out some stuff on SLES 10 SP1. It seems that it does not have pygrub!! On the other hand,they have domUloader.py which requires bootargs="--entry=hda:/boot/vmlinuz...., path to ramdisk. It is quite strange to be asking for the path of the kernel and the ramdisk to be supplied in the conf file!!. Am I missing something

These patches update the example FLASK policy shipped with Xen and enable its build if the required tools are present. The third patch requires rerunning autoconf to update tools/configure.

...t # for i in `ls /usr/lib/xen-3.1.0-1/bin`; do ls /usr/sbin/$i; done (with the correct version string, I suppose) And you'll see many xen standard binaries aren't linked into the path. At a glance programs that are definitely user/sysadmin packages and really a loss not to be available: lomount, xenmon.py, xenconsole, xen-bugtool Maybe not all of the others are really highly needed, but none would a problem to be available in /usr/sbin, so form my point of view I see no reason why this is like that - they are probably just forgotten. For example, having qemu-dm in the path helps when...

Hi Folks, I search for a way to mount the .img files virt-install creates for Xen VMs. Using fdisk -lu I found it contains to 2 partitions: > # fdisk -lu /var/lib/xen/images/BaseCentos.img > last_lba(): I don't know how to handle files with mode 81ed > Sie m?ssen angeben Zylinder. > Sie k?nnen dies im Zusatzfunktionsmen? tun. > > Platte /var/lib/xen/images/BaseCentos.img:

domUloader potentially makes my life a lot easier, but from experiments and looking at the code, it doesn''t seem like there is any way to pass kernel command line arguments with it. Am I just missing something? Thanks, John Byrne _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel

Hello, http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenBusDriver?highlight=%28xenbus%29 says that "XenBus provides a bus abstraction for paravirtualized drivers to communicate between domains. In practice, the bus is used for configuration negotiation, leaving most data transfer to be done via page flipping." What is the equivalent mechanism for fully-virtualized drivers in Xen (HVM running
