Package: xen-utils-common Version: 3.0+hg11292-2 Severity: normal After a recent etch upgrade (2.6.17, xen-3.0.2) I was unable to "xm create" until I "modprobe netloop nloopbacks=10" Error was network-bridge couln't create vif interface (backend not found). brctl addbr ... fails because of no free netloop device. passing more nloopbacks device to the module fixed the

Hi, I was hoping someone on this forums could help me out with a problem I was facing with Xen. When I compiled the kernel for Xen-3.1.3 using "make world"(I know this is an old version but I need to use it for some compatibility issues), the kernel was missing the Xen netloop module. There was no /kernel/drivers/xen/netback/netloop.ko in the newly compiled kernel. I think we would

Hi list, since release 5.3 all kernels ignore options netloop nloopbacks=<n> within /etc/modprobe.conf If <n> is smaller than four there are always four vifs created. If <n> is bigger than four the appropriate number of vifs are created. Is this expected/new/feature/bug? Henry

Package: xen-utils-common Version: 3.0+hg11624-2 Severity: normal I'm running etch with xen 3.0.3 with a hand-compiled 2.6.18.1 kernel. The /etc/xen/scripts/network-bridge fails to run, because it (effectively) does this: set -e modprobe netloop > /dev/null 2>&1 As I do not have a netloop module (where is it supposed to come from ? The 2.6.18.1 xen-patched kernel doesn't

Hi, I try to get networking running with xen 3.2, but it seems I fail miserably. I am on sles10sp1, with xen 3.2.0, and kernel rpm''s installed from SP2. I configured in /etc/sysconfig/network the NETWORK_LIST: NETWORK_LIST="bridge,0,default,00:DE:AD:BE:EF,192.168.8.13/24,dhcp-off" but an ifconfig xenbr0 still shows the mac address of peth0 fe:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff. Initially, I

I tried netperf / netserver with Dom0 / DomU, but I could''nt get a correct NW traffic with xentop. Is there anybody could help me? At Host1''s Dom0, run netperf -H VMIP At Host2''s DomU (with VMIP named TTVM), run netserver At Host1, run xentop this way ->"xentop -n -b -d 1" At Host2, run xentop this way->"xentop -n -b -d 1" In Host2''s

I followed these steps to get 3.3 installed on a CentOS 5.2 machine: # wget http://bits.xensource.com/oss-xen/release/3.3.0/xen-3.3.0.tar.gz # tar xvcf xen-3.3.0.tar.gz # cd xen-3.3.0 # make tools # make xen # make install-tools # make install-xen Development deps were all meet, everything compiled w/o error. Used yum to install kernel-xen bridge-utils bridge-utils gtk-vnc (did I need that?)

Hi! I am trying to export a PCI device (an AVM Fritzcard PCI ISDN card...) to a domU but when starting my domU I am getting this error: "pciback pci-4-0: 22 Couldn''t locate PCI device (0000:00:06.0)! perhaps already in-use?" My system is running both debian etch in dom0 and domU... Below you can find (hopefully) all important information... Sincerely, Gaubatz Patrick

Hello! I?m fitting a model with glm(family binomial). The best model counts 9 Variables and includes an interaction term that was generated by the product of to continuous variables (a*b). All variables are correlated under a value of 0.7 (Spearman rank order) While the estimates of both main effects are negativ, the resulting interaction term is positiv. This change of sign makes it difficult to

Hello, maybe it is not the right place to ask Windows-related questions, but i'll give it a try. I am running a Debian-Etch-Server with Samba 3 and Windows2000 and XP-clients. Everything is working fine except: For every user logging in from a Win-client, the client generates a local user-profile and local user-directories. What has to be done within Samba and what has to be done on the

Hi, with reference to RH BZ#567540 [0], this patch makes the netloop module permanent (like netback is currently). It reverts parts of xen-unstable c/s 9019:271cb04a4f2b [1] [2] (though that has a typo: "__init clean_loopback", so it was probably changed later too). The patch fixes the problem of "rmmod netloop" hanging, resulting in blocked tasks and inability to shut down

Hi, this is propably bridge related and not really a xen problem, but it might help someone: Some of our domUs are not able to arp. Arp -n show (incomplete), and doing a tcpdump shows, that on the dom0''s eth0 the arp request goes out, the response comes in, but on the vifX.0 interface the arp response is gone. dom0# tcpdump -ni eth0 arp who-has 10.32.2.51 tell 10.32.7.70 arp reply

I''m experimenting with xen + iscsi, and I founded that under heavy stress domU''s can crash entire system, I''ve reproduced this many many times.

Hi, I''m playing with xen from a couple of weeks, all standard configurations work fine within my suse box. But trying to become closer to the xen philosophy I can''t understand the issues which drown developers to use netloop module instead of the tap one. thank''s in advance _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list

It appears that this bug is caused by the netloop kernel module not being automatically loaded. xn

Hi all, I recently change my Xen 3.1 for a 3.2 and I discover I have to set IP address on bridge rather than on virtual interfaces. I used to use bridge set on dummy interface to create virtual networks (not vlan) inside my Xen system. Without IP on it bridges can be consider as a hub. dom0 can be outside of these virtual networks. With IP on bridge, dom0 will exists on these networks, and I

The FAQ says to use loopback.nloopbacks to limit the number of vif''s and veth''s that show up in dom0. This no longer appears to work. Has this been remove with no replacement or has this just changed and the FAQ hasn''t kept up? -- Jason The place where you made your stand never mattered, only that you were there... and still on your feet
