Hello, I''ve this strange problem. When Xen kernel start and it try to start eth devices, network doesn''t work. It seems to be a problem with NICs firmware. Anyone had this problem? Do you know where I can download firmware upgrade? (on DELL''s site I''ve just searched...) Thanks, Carlo No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.

Hi all, some results from my configuration. I''ve this configuration (I''m not interested in raw top performances but in reliability.. so, I can accept slow MB/sec and prefer to rely on a RAID6, for example): 1 Infortrend iSCSI Array A16E-G2130-4 with: - 1GB DDR cache - RAID6 - 7 x 500GB sataII Seagate ST3500630NS with 16mb (no budget for SAS) - one of the logic volumes (about

Dear All, I''m totally new to DRBD + XEN over iSCSI but I need to configure this scenario in order to buy the right hardware. Our department will provide us with an iSCSI target which will be replicated in its own to a secondary iSCSI SAN (probably they will use DRBD). This target will be used, in our ideas, to replicate our own iSCSI san, that we are going to buy. We will probably

Dear all, I will setup soon an Infortrend iSCSI SAN device with a raid6 volume and a DELL PE1950 (8 VMs) with a Qlogic iSCSI HBA (server to be duplicated at later time for redundancy). My priorities are: 1) VMs on the iSCSI SAN in order to boot them also by another server if the first one fails 2) performances 3) live migration is a non mandatory option (i.e. I can suffer to shutdown

Dear all, since it could be of interest for the list, here I post a link to compiled kernel for XEN 3.1 on a DELL PowerEdge 1950 compiled with gcc (GCC) 4.1.2 20061115 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.1-21) on a Debian4 distribution. This is provided AS IS AND WITHOUT ANY SUPPORT AND/OR ANY RESPONSIBILITY :-) The first link (7 MB) pack all the files you should have in /boot. The second link (12 MB)

I totally agree with Luc Boudreau about this problem. On modern branded server they ALL use Broadcom chipset... I must admit that: a) lot of people are experiencing the problem but can tolerate it or b) someone already experienced this problem and solved it Lets'' approach the problem pragmatically... just start with a survey on the list. ... hope we solve this issue soon.
