Hi, I am facing problem in sync time within DomU with Dom0. After gone through mailing lists, I have set /proc/sys/xen/independent_wallclock to 0. But still DomU are not syncing their time :-S Machine using kernel-xen-2.6.19-1.2911.fc6 xen-3.0.3-3.fc6 xen-libs-3.0.3-3.fc6 Please advice to solve this weird problem, Thanks _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list

Hello list, I''ve installed Xen 3.0.3-testing from source on my spiffy new socket AM2 machine and I''m eager to play with fully virtualized guests. The problem is, it seems the hvmloader wasn''t installed (or built) when I built and installed Xen. I''m getting the following error : Error: Kernel image does not exist: /usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader So I did a quick

Hello, I downloaded the latest unstable and installed on 2 amd dual athalon 64 x2''s (dual cores). Kernel went fine. I''m getting this error when trying to start xend : ImportError: /usr/lib64/python/xen/lowlevel/xc.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory .Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/xend", line 49, in ? from

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 ran into an interesting/strange issue today. I still don''t understand what happened, but in know what fixed it. I had a situation where I could only see vblade exported devices from OFF the physical machine. It seemed that if the packets went through two ports of the bridge (instead of one port and the real interface) they got "lost". I sniffed around and failed to

Hello to all, I''ve got some guests that are really beginning to become bandwidth hogs. Some of them are file mirrors, some of them are just simple ftp backup servers. I''d like to try ebtables with my public bridges to try and tame things a bit, and was wondering if anyone has some snippets or scripts they would like to share. I''m new to ebtables, and am finding it a

I''m using Xen under Debian Etch. I''ve managed to get my virtual machines working and I''m happy with that. But I find that if I boot Debian using the Xen kernel (version 2.6.18-4-xen-686), ALSA suddenly can''t find either of my soundcards (an AC97 on the motherboard and an M-Audio M44 PCI card). Everything else seems to work fine, networking and bluetooth

Hello all ;) Tell I have a Xeon server with 4 vcpus If on this box I have some guets, tell 10, what is the best solutions : - Set all guests to 1 vcpu ? - Set all guests to 4 vcpus ? I well understand that if I set a guest with 4 vcpus and all others only with one vpcus, then the one with 4 vcpus will have more "cpu time" available than others guests. But in case I''d like

The time appears to be perfect inside dom0, however all the domU''s tend to have a slightly faster date which gets further out of sync every day. I''m currently using Xen 3.0.3 with Gentoo Linux, under 3.0.2 I had no problems with domU clocks. Are there any known issues which could cause this? I''d strongly prefer not to run ntpd in every domU, having all domU clocks in

Looks like the GSO is involved? I got this while running Dom0 only (no guests), with a BOINC/Rosetta@home application running on all 4 cores. changeset: 10649:8e55c5c11475 Build: x86_32p (pae). ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at net/core/dev.c:1133! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP CPU: 0 EIP: 0061:[<c04dceb0>] Not tainted VLI EFLAGS: 00210297 (2.6.16.13-xen

Hello to all, Does anyone know if there is an iteration option planned for xentop (similar to top) to make it easier for simple shell scripts to scrape the output? I don''t see one in tools/xenstat/xentop/xentop.c , but I''ve been meaning to play with stuff in libxenstat anyway. If its going to be added soon I''ll tinker much later than sooner. TIA :) Best, -Tim

Hello to all, I''ve noticed a value of 10000000 in /proc/sys/xen/permitted_clock_jitter. I''m assuming thats only checked if independent_wallclock has a value greater than 0. Does anyone know what unit the 10000000 represents? Thanks in advance Tim _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com

Hello to all, Does anyone know if there is a maximum length of the vifname string? Is this a xen limit or a kernel limit? Say a string 10 characters long, other than the obvious hassle of ifconfig truncating the name are there any other issues to think of? Has anyone used a longer vifname and experience any quirks like possibly snmp truncating the string too? Many thanks in advance if anyone

Hello to all. I''m setting up a high capacity farm that''s going to allow many departments of a company or project have their own resources. I have little to no control over the brand of CPU (I would have much preferred AMD) and name brand of the gear, but I do get some input on what goes in each node. They are dell Power Edge 2950''s, found here :

Since your actually forming the raid on dom-0 and not inside of the guest, there is absolutely no need to load md and associated modules in the guest at all. The guest will just see the volume group you are exporting as a regular sata drive the same size as the vg being exported. I''m guessing the second drive is for swap? Hope this helps Best, -Tim On Mon, 2006-10-23 at 16:36 +1000,

Hello to all, I''ve lucked onto a case of Opteron 850''s and hope to try some 4 way and 8 way systems with Xen. Can someone recommend a good 8x or even 4x socket 940 board that will be condusive to a good experience with Xen? This will be only for Paravirtualized guests (3.0.4). My hope is to play more with Xen''s credit scheduler and try some of the arch mixing

Hello all, There''s been many posts lately about problems that stem from either duplicate macs, non static macs and other networking issues that would be averted if a mac was specified upon vm creation. I''ve been using this little function I wrote in my shell scripts that setup dom-u''s from a csv file and its worked rather well, lets you control the prefix and

Hello list, Today I was doing some troubleshooting of a service on a dom-u and noticed that I couldn''t exit a telnet session because ctrl - ] just dropped me out of console. When I went back into console, I was still in the telnet session. Was using telent to see why monitors were reporting an invalid greeting on some services. Eventually the telnet session would time out, or I could

Hello to all, For those evaluating the AMD X2 4200+ series for the purposes of running HVM guests, take a note below before purchasing if the server you are purchasing happens to be made by HP. There is an oddball version (apparently OEM sold to HP) which does *not* support AMD-V technology. I''ve seen many of these on e-bay as well as for sale / lease by popular co-location facilities.
