Gang, ???? I run several KVM host machines.? Due to updates, maintenance, and unexpected reboots sometime host machines are restarted.? I can easily envision a scenario where HostX needs some critical packages updated or is acting up.? I migrate guest0, guest1, guest2 etc. from HostX to HostY.? Then, in either a planned (i.e. scheduled maintenance) or unplanned (i.e. unplanned reboot) event

Hi all, I have been using Libvirt for several months now and I have only had minimal problems. I had a particular setup and was starting up multiple guests just fine. However, with seemingly no changes I now get the following error when trying to start a guest: virsh start guest0 error: Failed to start domain guest0 error: internal error Process exited while reading console log output: Supported

I normally try not to ask questions until I have done as much research as possible, and again, this is the case... Just after I thought I had my RH5 samba/nis server working fine, I come across the inability to update nis passwords. >From the server as root: passwd guest1 Changing password for user guest1. New UNIX password: Retype new UNIX password: NIS password could not be changed.

Hi Xen-users, I am trying to boot of my fist guest domain. The below attached message was thrown on the screen. I am not quite sure that the below information is sufficient to root cause the issue.

Here's the problem. We perform full tar backups of our CentOS 4/5 machines in real-time at regular intervals. And when a disaster happens, we are able to restore those backups onto virgin filesystems, make the /dev/null, /dev/zero and /dev/console devices .. and boot the machine. This has worked well on standalone systems, and also on Xen 3.0.3 guests on CentOS 4.4 machines, where each guest

Hello, As part of my project for my MSc, I am looking for a solution to implement nested virtual machines. My current scenario is: - I have a server with AMD Phenom II X6 1100T and 8GB RAM - virtualization enabled at BIOS. - I have installed 64bit CentOS-5.6 with Xen enabled (let''s call it as base1). - On top of base1 I have also installed 64bit CentOS-5.6 (guest1) with Xen enabled and

HI all, Is it possible to install a virtual guest (FreeBSD and OpenBSD mainly) from kvm host's console? I have tried to do some search about this but I haven't found anything about it. My idea is to launch "virsh start guest1" and inmediately "virsh console guest1", but it doesn't works until serial console is configured inside guest .... Any tip? Thanks.

I spent the afternoon yesterday googling for answers, but had have come up blank still. What I am trying to do is resize the file system to use the additional disk space that I added to the logical volume that the
