Hi, I''ve been trying to boot from a RHEL4 install iso without much luck (the xen way). The Host is: RHEL 5.1 xen-3.0.3-41.el5 Here is my guest config: # -*- mode: python; -*- #============================================================================ # Python configuration setup for ''xm create''. # This script sets the parameters used when a domain is created using

I recently installed Fedora 7, Xen with Windows Vista in a VM using the Virtual Machine Manager tool. Everything has worked great but now I can not get the VM to start during Linux boot. I made sure xend and xendomain are started using chkconfig. Everything I have read talked about placing a .hvm file in the /etc/xen/auto directory. The Virtual Machine Manager tool did not create a .hvm file

Hi: we have following setup: 1. 2.6.16-33-based Xen 3.0.3/Xen-3.0.4 DOM-0 kernels. 2. Using LILO-mbootpack from USB we boot Xen-->DOM-0 setup 3. We mount harddisk and try to install xp.hvm While,we are successful with FCs as DOM-U, for XP we get, VBD (768) could not be connected. We do have max_loop count to 64 and enough loop devices. Note that above error is consistent on both 3.0.3

...ve expressed interest in kexec support for Xen guests. In particular, it''s mainly useful for purposes of implementing an in-guest bootloader app and avoiding the need for dom0 to access the guest filesystem. It''s a largish patch, so I stuck it online: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~maw48/xenguest_kexec.patch Tested on i386. I suspect it''ll have build issues on x86_64 but those should be easy to fix - actually the code is probably generic enough to work on both. You''ll also need a modified version of the kexec tools, which I''ll post details of later....

Hi, I want to perform pass through I/O from my domU. I guess I would need an additional network card for the same. Is there any preference on the second network card I should get or any one is fine? I have a x86_64 machine with Cent OS 4.4 running. Are there any additional considerations that I cannot see - Kindly let me know. Thanks, Asim _______________________________________________

Some question. Can I install Xen-3.2.1 with 2.6.18-xen kernel... to my Dom0 and without HVM, starting a debian(DomU) with kernel 2.6.25 from kernel src and compiled with all XEN port / features ? or i need to use the vmlinuz-2.6.18-xen to all my DomU ??

I installed Xen using the binary release on debian sarge and got it to boot no problem but when I check if dma is enabled with ''hdparm /dev/hda'' it''s not. I can''t enable it either with ''hdparm -d1 /dev/hda''. Says operation not permited. Using my debian default kernel dma works just fine. How can I enable dma with the Xen Kernel? Thanks!

Hi! Some bootloaders (eg. syslinux) have to ability to load multiple ramdisks, effectively concatenating them. This makes it very easy to augment ramdisks, like eg. customizing an installer. Can I do something similar with XEN? Separating the ramdisk cpio arhives with commas in the config file didn''t work... -- Thanks, Feri. _______________________________________________ Xen-users

Hi, I''m trying to get copy/paste/cut working between my Xen host (FC8 64) and guest OSs (Centos 5.1, Windows 2000). I''ve tried the viewer in virt-manager, virt-viewer, and vncviewer. None of them seem to transfer clipboard contents between host and guest, even with both clipboard checkboxes selected in vncviewer options. Does anyone know how to get this working? Thanks.

I have Xen 3.1 installed on my server, and XenSource Xen Server Console 3.1 on my windows desktop.

Where can i find it on my server and how

If a domain has PCI devices then we can''t safely save or migrate it. At least one user has had system crashes due to this, and the way the xendomains script automatically saves and restores domains on reboot. Since there''s no sensible semantics for it at the moment, we should disallow it and return an appropriate error message to xm. The first attached patch prevents the

Hi Do you know some library that have a function for set resources, like memory and cap of processor, without the "xm" and "libvirt". For example: The library libxenstat just take informations about the VMs... Do you know something for set resource with xend or xenstat? thank''s Leandro _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list

I am working on a security tool that monitors various components (IDT, SSDT, etc) of a domU using VM introspection. Currently, we''re using a polling method to monitor these in-core structions. We would like to be able to use a blocking method instead. I.e. specify "interesting" memory ranges and then wait until they are modified. How can I get the hypervisor to alert a

Hi all, xend communicates with xenstored using unix domain sockets right? So, would it be possible to convert the unix domain sockets to tcp/ip sockets and let xenstored run on a different machine?

Hello, I''m trying to boot kernels from the 2.6.23.x line as paravirt domUs, 64-bit xen-3.1.0 and xen-3.1.2 are used on the test boxes. xm create starts up the domU without any problems according to the logs, however, the started domU does not output anything apart from a single tab (if I start it with -c option ), and eats up 100% CPU. Config file of the domU is as follows: ----
