Hi, I tried using win-pvdrivers 0.8.4 on German Windows XP Pro SP2. Xen is 3.1, comes with Ubuntu 7.10. Everything seems to work well except the shutdown monitor. If I run shutdownmon.exe on the command line, windows gives an error message stating it could not initialize shutdownmon.exe correctly. Parameters passed to shutdownmon.exe don''t have any influence on the error. The original (German) error message reads "Die Anwendung konnte nicht richtig initialisiert...

We have many domUs windows 7 64 bit on production systems, all with build gplpv_Vista2008x64_0.11.0.238.msi. Randomly, during install shutdown monitor service wasn''t created and we not understand why. All other things about gplpv are working, someone can help me to solve this problem please? _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list

...river. Changing it to ''sda'' has broken the boot proces, even the boot loader screen of Windows haven''t appeared. Beside this, the shutdown monitor of the mentioned version of the driver couldn''t be installed on the hungarian windows xp, because the XP said, that shutdownmon.exe was not a win32 application or something like that. It said the same thing about copyconfig.exe, however, the same programs from version 0.9.10, were OK on XP too. The disk is a multipath LVM volume with four FibreChannel paths to a volume on a Sun Storagetek 6140 storage: carrier3:~ # multi...

...zip that will manually (and forcibly) uninstall GPLPV from your computer, which seems to be necessary before doing upgrades from some versions. Run the uninstaller, reboot, then install. There is a 0.9.x and a 0.10.x uninstaller, which differ slightly, but the basic steps performed are: . stop the shutdownmon service . remove the %ProgramFiles%\Xen PV Drivers directory and all contents . delete all files matching %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\xen* . delete any oem*.inf and oem*.pnf files from %SYSTEMROOT%\INF that contain the text ''xen'' . delete all HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic...

I just installed Windows 2008 x86_64 on Xen 3.2 that I compiled from source on CentOS 5.1. Are there any windows guest tools available that run shutdown when I issue xm reboot in dom0?

Hi, I''ve recently started using the GPL PV Drivers (0.9.10) for a pair of test machines, one XP and one 2003. XP works beautifully: Thank you for the development efforts. 2003 works almost as well, with one exception. When I either xm reboot or xm shutdown and subsequently restart the virtual machine, at first login I get this dialogue: The system has restarted after an unplanned

I have a Win2K3 domU (and thankfully an image backup of the LVM volume that holds its system disk) I previously installed GPLPV v0.8.9 drivers, the domU boots OK with or without the /GPLPV switch in boot.ini, however with the /GPLPV switch it tries and fails to use the Xen network driver, and so the machine is network-less, so for the past few months I''ve left it using pure HVM
