Hello, When I install guest OS on xen using "xm create /path/of/file/ubuntu.cfg -c" , I am getting an error message *"Error*: Device 0 (*vif*) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working <http://markmail.org/message/24aj3qs6ddrtwdks>" . I also saw that hotplugs and udev are prerequisites to be installed before compiling xen. I could not find hotplugs in Yast.

Hi, I am facing the below error while compiling dom0.

Hi, I have a host with 6 VMs set to autostart. When this host reboots, it starts libvirtd, pegasus cimom and libvirt-cim. It also restarts the VMs. Intermittently we noticed a core during start up that points to the last call made by libvirt-cim to "virInitialize". I am thinking that it is a timing issue where virInitialize is called while libvirt is trying to autostart the VMs.

Hi, I''m a long ext3 user (rpmfind.net). I propagated ext3 on some of our server box (W3C webservers are ext3 based too now). I might be tempted of testing out your kernel RPMs but unavailability or the source RPM and the SMP version are definite showstoppers. Please provide them. In the meantime I will stick to my own set of kernel ext3 RPMs at ftp://rpmfind.net/pub/veillard/ext3/

Hi, Is there any way you can save a xen domain without suspending it or stopping it? I want to set up something so if my xen session crashes I can fire up another xen session from the save file that I created 5 minutes before the crash and hopefully minimize downtime.

I keep getting an error when I try to attach a device in the libvirt api through python The python code is: conn=libvirt.open('qemu:///system') dom = conn.lookupByName("fedoratest") if dom.info()[0]==1: dom.attachDevice('net.xml') And I keep getting: "libvirtError: XML description not well formed or invalid The xml is a simple network

Hi, I am trying to connect to libvirt on KVM host from a remote python client, using the connection string "qemu+ssh://<IP Address>/system" If I setup password less SSH (Public key) between the machines, I am able to proceed with the connection. But If I have not setup the public key authentication, my code hangs trying to connect to libvirt, and there is a prompt for entering

Hi, I am a newbie to Xen and so this doubt may baffle a few. Anyways, I installed xen 3.0.3 from the tarball on Ubuntu Dapper Drake. I even configured a guest file of the same kernel, only the xenU verison. It worked fine and I was given a sh prompt. My problem now is that I want to get some other kernel as guest. I did try fc6 since that''s the other OS I have on my box. However, I got

I've not seen this asked since I've been on the list; but was wondering... I'm currently sticking to the 2.2 line and have no plans to move to 2.4 right now. Is there any attempt to back port some of the changes in the newer 2.4 line back into 2.2? ext-0.0.7a.tar.gz has been stable thus far, but it's getting kind of old. NEM

Hi all, I'm using libvirt java binding (libvirt-java-0.4.6) I'd like to know if the Domain class offers an API to query volumes attached to a particular domain or should I parse the XML domain description?

Has support for creating or using lxc containers on remote machines been added to libvirt yet? https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/lxc.html says "Libvirt is a powerful hypervisor management solution with which you can administer Qemu, Xen and LXC virtual machines, both locally and remote." so I assume it's been done and I'm just having trouble seeing it... otoh, I hear

Hi, IIR/UC there have been a couple of discussions lately about possible evolution of libvirt's network management features to eventually support more kinds of virtual networking technologies like Openvswitch, VDE,... Could a kind and informed soul keep us on touch with progress in the field ? Thank you very much in advance PS: I wish this will be available before/for 1.0 release...

Are there any recommendations as to how often a new connection should be made versus reused? Right now we create a new connection *every time* we hit libvirt for something. We can easily change this so that a single connection is made for a series of libvirt calls, or even so that a single connection is used for the lifetime of the running application. What are the issues to consider when making

Hi, I'm revisiting my libVirt install for opensolaris. I downloaded libvirt 0.8.0.. This is a bit embarassing, but I forgot how to build libVirt on opensolaris. (It's been a while) I'm currently stuck with the configure script failing to find linux kernel headers. Error: "configure: error: You must install kernel-headers in order to compile libvirt" Can anyone post the

Hello Is there an easy way to get supported feature (API) list in each driver? The function would be to return a list which describes which APIs are supported and which APIs are not. Thanks in advance ozaki-r

Hello. I'm using debian squeeze with libvirt and kvm and I need to load a newer version of seabios into qemu. I'd like to do it without overwriting seabios in the debian package because that might be overwritten on the next update. I hopend that the <loader> directive in the config would work but it doesn't. thanks for any ideas. mk

Hello I'm trying to compile libvirt-0.8.6 on RHEL4 with kernel 2.6.9-67 The make command returns: -------------------- util/interface.c: In function `ifaceGetVlanID': util/interface.c:355: error: `GET_VLAN_VID_CMD' undeclared (first use in this function) util/interface.c:355: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once util/interface.c:355: error: for each function it

I came across a thread in the archives that seems to suggest that multiple connections can be made from a single application,although I am unsure what version(s) of libvirt support it. https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvirt-users/2010-March/msg00074.html I'd like to know if multiple connections(for eg,virConnectOpenAuth()) can be made from an application using libvirt-0.6.3-20.1.el5_4 .

Hello, In the documentation section of Python API Website it is written that the generation of python API and documentation is automated using generator.py file. This should produce the necessary files alongwith the documentation in libvirtclass.txt which should be present in docs or python folder. I executed generator.py file but was not able to find the libvirtclass.txt file to get the
