...roject.org/help/questions-and-answers/vanilla-pv-centos-guest-via-kickstart-centos-6-6,-xen-4-4.html The TL;DR is: Everything I've found to kickstart a new vanilla rhel/centos guest points to specifying a kernel & and initrd- for RHEL/Centos 5. But where is the xen initrd for Centos 6? The Xen4Quickstart instructions are awesome, but after install you are left with a kernel and an initramfs & no initrd for a centos 6 guest in xen. So is there a better way to kickstart a fresh/vanilla VM post Xen4Quickstart instructions? Shall I build an initrd from the initramfs (and how) or is there another w...

In honor of Xen Doc Day, I've put up some basic HOWTOs for setting up bridging on CentOS 6 and 7. I'm far from an expert, so I'd appreciate any feedback.

...11 to CentsOS. Our first tests are ok except for one problem and I don't find any solutions on the net. I hope, you can help me.

Hi, I installed CentOS 7.4 on a modern Lenovo ThinkSystem SR630 server which uses UEFI. So far so good CentOS 7.4 works fine so then I went on to install the Xen hypervisor by following the instructions from the wiki (https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Xen/Xen4QuickStart). Unfortunately when I reboot after having installed the xen package the system does not boot into "CentOS Linux, with Xen hypervisor" from the grub menu prompt. I get the following error: Loading Xen 4.6.6-8.el7 ... error: can't find command `multiboot'. Loading Linux 4.9.75-29...

...strange problem on a fresh install of CentOS 6.5. On the server we want to use Xen to host paravirtualised guests (the system has no hardware virtualization support). To manage the domain we would like to use libvirt. Xen and libvirt are set up as described here: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Xen/Xen4QuickStart http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Xen/Xen4QuickStart/Xen4Libvirt When we try to create a new domain this does not work.

Hi all, I'm trying to install libvirt for xen on a brand new, minimal installation of CentOS 7.5.1804. After installing the OS, I did a 'yum update' and followed the basic how-tos at https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Xen/Xen4QuickStart and https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Xen/Xen4QuickStart/Xen4Libvirt From previous experience, I know that the above steps worked fine. However, now on CentOS 7.5, I am seeing the dependency resolution failing. $ yum install libvirt libvirt-daemon-xen [ ... ] Error: Package: libvirt-daemon-xen...

Hi, after migrating to libvirt/libxl according to: https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Xen/Xen4QuickStart/Xen4Libvirt I've noticed that my Xen PV domains are being launched by qemu-system-i386 running under root privileges. I am wondering why is this? Previously no qemu process was used. If qemu is needed for some reason, are there any guidelines for non-root operation? Thanks -- Karel Hendry...

Hi, I have used this http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Xen/Xen4QuickStart and everything works like a charm then I installed a VM using http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Xen/Xen4QuickStart/Xen4Libvirt only to realize later that I don't want NAT. I would want to use PCI passthrough and so i used virsh net-destroy default virsh net-undefine default and net-create /home/kar...

Hi, I have a server with Supermicro X7DVL-3 (P9) motherboard, 16G ECC RAM and LSI SAS 1068e RAID controller.
