Hi, I have set maxvcpus and vcpus options in my domU configuration file, and I can see that X number of vcpu are set for the domU. I tried to activate all the vpcus by using vpcu_avail option (using decimal to represent vpcu bitmask e.g. 24=11000) but it doesn''t seem to work, and only the first vpcu is activated (i.e. has -b- state) while all other vpcu''s set for the domU are in the paused state. Can any one share more insights on how to act...

...Here is the basic command: virt-install \ --accelerate \ --cdrom /tools/iso/CentOS-6.3-x86_64-bin-DVD1.iso \ --disk device=disk,path="/var/lib/libvirt/images/myguest.img" \ --graphics vnc \ --name myguest \ --os-type linux \ --os-variant rhel6 \ --ram 2048 \ --vpcus 1,maxvcpus=4 \ --initrd-inject "/tmp" \ --extra-args "ks=file:/myks.cfg" Why do I need the location? I thought that was only used when installatiing from a distribution tree. I am using a DVD ISO image. If I have to use it, how would I specify it? If this approach won...

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 to have an equal cpu "share" between all guests, which is the best solution : - set 1 vcpu for all - set 4 vcpu for all Thanks a ton Pascal __________________...

Hi When I create a domain from xml file, the vcpu number point in <vcpu/>, I not point <cpu><topology> in xml file, when allocate more than 2 vpcus, some(windows) system can't use all vcpu. But I point <cpu><topology sockets='1' cores='num' threads='1'/></cpu>. num is <vcpu>'num'</vcpu>. then whindows can use all vcpus. I want to know when no ponit <cpu><topology> ,...

...3800+ (EE) on a simple ASUS M2N-MX Mainboard. However I wasn''t able to run the installation with ACPI enabled in the config file for the domain (acpi=1). The setup procedure simply freezes after loading all the drivers. Is this a known issue ? Second, I wasn''t able to assign 2 VPCUS to the Windows guest even when they were assigned during the setup process. Are there hints or comments ? -- __________________________________________________ Ralf Schenk fon (02 41) 9 91 21-0 fax (02 41) 9 91 21-59 rs@databay.de Databay AG Hüttenstraße 7 D-52068 Aachen www.databay.de Databa...

...(clearly) DomU Firewall (Endian) DomU Fileserving (Samba) DomU Mail&Fax (Scalix, Hylafax) DomU Videostraming (Vdr) DomU DMZ (web frontend, file sharing) DomU 64 Bit development DomU 32 Bit development Dom0 uses clearly 2 VPCU, pinned (because of cpufreq mgmt). I assigend only 2 VPCUs to the development machines. Does this make sense? Or does it make more sense to assign 2 VCPUs to all response critical DomUs, too. Or does it make more sense to assign 1 VCPU only to all DomUs, because we are not sure that a VPCU is a physical CPU and it could be that the 2 VCPUs of a DomU use...
