Hi all, I try to use kernel 2.6.36.1 in HVM but building the drivers xen-blkfront, xenfs, platform-pci. I used Xen 4.0.2-rc1-pre and a DomU is a ubuntu 10.04 and I try with ubuntu 10.10. In boot I receive error "Cannot find a root partition /dev/xvda2" and a prompt (initramfs) appear. In dmesg (initramfs) appear: blkfront: xvda: barriers enabled (tag) xvda: xvda1 vbd vbd-51712: 16

Hello, I''m currently trying to understand some problems I had in the past with mixing look-back with blktap(2) for HV and PV domains. I''m stuck reading the source code, so I''d like to get some help from the list. Interrupt me if I got something fundamentally wrong in my understanding so far: 1. With pure-HV the domU gets an emulated IDE (or whatever) disk. The

Hi all, I'm looking for a cloning solution for our Windows/Linux/*nix computer park and ran into Clonezilla. Apparantely the DRBL and other documentation mentions CentOS as a suitable base for it. Does anybody on this list use this solution and can say something about it in the running-Clonezilla-with-CentOS-context, be it recommendations, gotchas', warnings or whatever? Thanks. -- BW,

Have 4 xen servers with windows domains. 2 work OK and 2 have xp domains with slow network performance. Doing most of the testing on a xen system that currently is not in production. Running xen 4.0 with 2.6.32 kernel from lenny backports. Have xp service pack3 freshly installed with no updates. Installed gplpv gplpv_XP_0.11.0.213.msi hdtack gives 60mb/sec which is good iperf gives ~15Mbits/sec

Hi, I wanted to set up Clonezilla Tools on my client machine via PXE Boot. How do I do it. I got information from the web, but after making changes in the dhcpd.conf file, the dhcpd fails to start.

Hallo, I'm just trying to boot a Clonezilla *.iso (live-20100521-lucid) via PXE; Label clonezilla kernel memdisk append iso raw initrd iso/clonezilla.iso The first step is ok - I see the boot menu of the *.iso. When I choose "Clonezilla live" the system fails with Isolinux: Disk error 02, AX = 4224, drive E0 when I choose "freedos" it fails with

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

The clonezilla live project is a really nice way to do image-copies of machines: http://clonezilla.sourceforge.net/clonezilla-live/ but it's based on a Debian live OS which has some unfamiliar quirks. Has anyone built something like this on a Centos base? For anyone who hasn't seen it, it can do whole disk or partition copies of windows and most Linux filesystems and it knows enough to

We are running Solaris 10 11/06 on a Sun V240 with 2 CPUS and 8 GB of memory. This V240 is attached to a 3510 FC that has 12 x 300 GB disks. The 3510 is configured as HW RAID 5 with 10 disks and 2 spares and it''s exported to the V240 as a single LUN. We create iso images of our product in the following way (high-level): # mkfile 3g /isoimages/myiso # lofiadm -a /isoimages/myiso

I would need to migrate systems from physical machines to kvm. I am interested in the "Clonezilla method": http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Migration_of_servers_to_Proxmox_VE#Physical_server_to_Proxmox_VE_.28KVM.29_using_Clonezilla_Live_CDs One question, though. How can one boot a kvm guest to Clonezilla? The only way I found was using qemu-kvm like this: > qemu-kvm ?hda linux.img ?m

Hi, can anyone provide any pointers as to how to avoid this issue? A CentOS 5.3 domU on snv_111 dom0 is crashing on bott unless I remove /lib/modules/2.6.18-128.1.6.el5/kernel/drivers/xenpv_hvm dom0: haggis:~$ uname -a SunOS haggis 5.11 snv_111 i86pc i386 i86xpv Name: SUNWxvm Summary: Hypervisor Header Files Category: System/Virtualization State: Installed

I'm open to alternatives but need to be up and running 24/7 on the linux side. My boss hates windows more than I do and will likely be looking for a new job if I use windows to administer the the linux side. We only use windows if there is no other way do do something.

I''m using shorewall with openvpn and traffic shaping at all of our offices. I have noticed for a while that occasionally ping times are excessive. Usually this is during overnight off site backups but some times during the day. I have assumed the is was an ISP issue but now I''m suspecting it''s problem with openvpn and traffic shaping. In the test case have 2 sites

We are currently running samba3 nt4 domain controllers using smb-ldap-tools. We want to convert to samba4 ad so we can run new versions of windows server. I know of: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Migrating_a_Samba_NT4_Domain_to_Samba_AD_(Classic_Upgrade) But that would break us by moving all ldap to the ad ldap. We have lot's of stuff in ldap.

The XenPVHVM extensions have not been tested much on very old hypervisors. At least Xen 3.4 gets some testing with the pvops kernel. Require at least Xen 3.4 for the PVonHVM extensions. If an older hypervisor is detected the extensions will be disabled and the guest will only see emulated hardware. Signed-off-by: Olaf Hering <olaf@aepfle.de> --- arch/x86/xen/enlighten.c | 27
