similar to: [XCP] Error when trying to import vmware images

I''m attempting to convert a CentOs 5.6 x64 machine from Xen (Open Source) to Citrix XenServer and I am having some trouble towards the final stages. I need to take the .XVA created by XVA.PY and use XenConvert to manipulate this into another file format (OVF). Here''s the process I use: 1. Poweroff the VM 2. Create a new disk in 3 times the size of the primary 3. Sign in to

Hey guys, Has anyone had much success with XCP and Open Stack together? I''m in the process of putting together a open stack test cluster and I thought I might be able to use XCP dom0''s for it.. but to be honest it doesn''t look so good. I tried following these instructions on a separate XCP test machine: http://wiki.openstack.org/XenServerDevelopment At a first test

Hi all, I`m evaluating methods for nightly "snapshot" a physical win2003 to xcp vm. I know it would be a lot easier and reliable just to to one convert one time and start to generate real vm snapshots, but at this time I cannot use this method. I tested the sequence: disk2vdh -> xenconvert (to xcp), but a big deal of using this method is that xenconvert does not send

Have an Onapp system we are migrating away from to xenserver and it uses Xen source images I believe. I had no problem moving the MS Windows servers using the xenconvert utility, but not being a linux guy the conversion process of moving files from Onapp to xenserver is not clear. I think the files on Onapp are .img files, but they don''t use extensions from what I can tell when they

Hi guys, I''m running Xen 4.2.1, compiled manually so I can play with Remus and DRBD, running on Ubuntu 12.10.

Hello List, I''m using blktap on XCP 1.1 and developing a difference copy program for easy backup and remote archival. The idea is to read the BAT of VHD1 and sync it to BAT of VHD2 with BITMAP and the data blocks. Other way would be by adding a sha1 signature in each data block and comparing it with remote VHD. I tried to get some info from below programs but could not get required

I want to clone a small (80GB) disk on my CentOS server to a large (1.5TB) disk, as smart has been giving me warnings of unreadable sectors. Both disks are Western Digital, and WD has a WD version of Acronis True Image. I'm not sure whether to use this or Clonezilla. My worry with Acronis is that I want to keep the original disk, and I'm not sure from the documentation if True Image

Dear all, How to make XCP cannot management by XenCenter? We have an environment about 10 XCP host, and provide about 50 vm for users, We notice that some users want to use XenCenter to connect the XCP host, even they don’t have password, so we want to make XCP cannot use XenCenter and only for console management, is it possible? Sorry for the strange question,

Hello, I am using XCP 1.0 and am accessing it with XenCenter. I have three NIC''s and I have bonded two of them through the XenCenter frontend. I then create a VLAN using XenCenter and attach it to the bond0. I create a VM and create its NIC to use VLAN 10, which it does and when the VM boots the NIC shows Active inside of XenCenter. When I look at the XCP host it shows VLAN 10 as an

Hi all, I am getting this annoying "SR_BACKEND_FAILURE_40", have any of you seen some error like this before? I found a post here: http://discussions.citrix.com/topic/283705-internal-error-when-scanning-sr/ But, following those steps did not work out to me. I am using XCP 1.6 over, hen hypervisor 4.1.1 on Ubuntu 12.10. And as the management tool, I am using Cloudstack 4.1.1. The error

I think the title says it all :) I got far enough along in the Xen documentation that the documentation recommended me to start using XenCenter to manage the server. Why am I being asked by XenCenter to register my XCP 1.0 server? I know it''s similar, but it''s not a Citrix XenServer... ;) >From what I can gather, XCP is open source freeware...correct me if I''m

Hi All, I tried again with XAPI on Debian last night and this time things went far smoother... I managed to boot into the Xen kernel, xe is working and the XAPI daemon appears to be running. However, I am having trouble connecting to XAPI from XenCenter... it just says the connection was refused without any meaningful errors and nothing in the logs on either side. I can ping the Xen machine from

Thanks for all the help... XVP seems quite high on requirements. Like it needs an SMTP server set up. I''m not sure I like that. I found a tool called BixData, it''s proprietary but with a free license for a limited number of managed servers. Being a fully fledged cloud management system, it''s true overkill for me and my 3-4 virtual machines, but at least it seems quite

Dear All, I am new for XCP, Recently, i installed the XCP and open xencenter in our testbed. However, it has a message to notify me the license only have 30 days trial. Do anyone face this problem before? How can i obtain the full version of XCP instead of using the trial version?

I''m a bit confused about the kernel used by the Xen hypervisor. I''ve just installed a 30 day trial of XenSource''s Enterprise edition software on a Sun Fire 4600. It was my understanding that it would install a 64 bit hypervisor, however, upon running uname -a on my machine, I am told that I am running a i686 kernel. Did I miss something? How does one use a 64 bit

I would like to move an existing W2K3 install onto my new super duper xen box -- Installing linux based machine is no issue, it''s the windows ones that keep getting me. I have Acronis which we usually use for bare metal restores, and it seems that bare metal restores don''t want to work too well with XEN, any assistance/help/ideas ?

I have written a patch (please see attached) which fixes both of these bugs: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1092583 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1232477 By default, when saving a URI using xmlSaveUri it escapes everything in the URI. QEMU doesn't want anything escaped, so now I unescape everything after the URI is generated. Unfortunately there's no flag to
