similar to: KVM and vnc together

Hi all, I am trying to run kvm (which works) on my desktop. then when I vnc into my desktop I can use everything as normal except the kvm window. It messes up. Its like the mouse isnt really when its supposed to be or something. Anyone ran into this? I am using 5.6 x86_64. Thanks, Jerry

HI, I have a small problem with libvirt / qemu. I have created a guest and when I start it from the command-line the guests starts OK, but when I start the guest through libvirt with "virsh start" I get "Booting from Hard Disk... Boot failed: not a bootable disk No bootable device" This is the command-line I use to start the guest (which works) "cd /var/lib/kvm/Wilmer;

All - I am running a virtual windows 7 (pro 64) on centos 5.5 x86_64. I was hoping to run virtual XP inside windows7 in this configuration. I get an error about cannot start virtual XP when I try this. Do I not have something setup correctly or can I not run a "double" virtual environment? Thanks, Jerry

Hello, We are planning to install a Windows 2008 DomU in one of our servers (SUSE 10/SP2, XEN 3.2). Does someone have some experience in installing 2008 ? Are they some know problems (and solutions if possible) to success in thre process. Here is the setup we will use for that DomU : ------------------------------------------------------------------- # SR3 MV9 name="SAP-IDES-ECC"

Can somebody point me to a HowTO or other documentation describing the tools available under the CentOS 5 KVM package to create and manage a Windows 7 Pro VM? All my VM experience to date has been the old free VMware Server. I need to: + Create the VM instance allowing for about 50GB total disk space which will be either a single image partitioned into two Windows 'Drives'

I''ve been using Xen strictly for PV for a while now, but I recently upgraded to hardware capable of HVM domUs. I''m trying to get a really basic HVM instance going so I can get my hands around making them work, in anticipation of using one to run a BSD to act as a firewall for other domUs on the machine. (I like PF.) Also, I might need run windows at some point, I suppose.

Any one using vnc server on centos 5.1? on 4.6 I had no issue. on 5.1 I am having times when on connetion the VNC serveris crashing and logs me out of all my open'ed items. I can relog in. But I was wondering if others are seeing this and if there is something to do about it. THanks, Jerry

Hi folks, I''m updating my xen server from a dom0 on debian sarge, using a self compiled xen 3.0.4 and a kernel 2.6.16, to a standard debian etch using the deb packages xen 3.0.3 and kernel 2.6.18. On the old server, all my hvm machines use vnc console and a password is set into xend-config.sxp and it works nice. On the new etch server, with the same hvms and configuration files,

A patch that was applied yesterday tried to turn the vnc option off if dryrun was set. Unfortunately, the way it was actually coded turned vnc ON if dryrun was not set! I think this patch should fix it (someone who actually uses vnc & dryrun should test it, though). -George +-------------------+---------------------------------------- | dunlapg@umich.edu |

Hello, To explore kvm installs via Virt-Manager, I tried win7 installs in 3 different hosts. All 3 have 2G of RAM or more. Windows 7 Ultimate in 2.5 GB DVD ISO 1) Centos 5.4, AMD am2, Athlon 64 x2 4600+ works 2nd attempt after setup of Br0 (bridged network) virt-manager-0.6.1-8.el5 kvm-83-105.el5_4.13 2) OpenSuSE 11.2, AMD am2, Athlon 64 x2 5200+ works with defaults

Hi, When I'm trying to run qemu-kvm command on RHEL6(linux kernel 2.6.32) then I get following errors which I think related to tap devices in my setup. Any idea why is that? bash$ LC_ALL=C PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=none /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -S -M rhel6.2.0 -enable-kvm -m 512 -smp 1,sockets=1,cores=1,threads=1 -name instance-00000027 -uuid

Is there any way to get virsh / libvirt to create a domain such that I can later connect to it via QMP (without hacking the code)? The command line that libvirt creates for my current setup looks like this: /usr/local/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -S -M pc-0.12 -enable-kvm -m 512 -smp 1,sockets=1,cores=1,threads=1 -name winxpsp2 -uuid ab244939-c804-1aff-68b6-9324f174c3c8 -nodefconfig -nodefaults

Hi there, I have used qemu to install FreeBSD 9.2 release, and i can boot it fine with: $ qemu-system-x86_64 -hda images/FreeBSD-9.2-RELEASE-amd64.img I then made virsh aware of my brand new VM (see attached XML), but when i run it via virsh, It hangs after the bootloader whith this message: Booting... CPU doesn't support long mode From the log, here is the generated qemu command:

Hi: I noticed a bug in the realloc error checking code in the QEMU backend for RealTek8139. However, what''s worse is that there is no cap on the total size of the transmit buffer at all. So a guest can keep extending it until memory runs out. CP_TX_BUFFER_SIZE is already 64K. So it seems to me that we don''t need the while loop to extend the buffer at all since no transmitted

Hello , I use Centos 5.4 , with the redhat version of xen . I need for some guest to change the hardware for the network . So in my xen config i add the model option in the vif line . When the guest boot , i had the right emulation , but after a reboot , the guest loose the configuration . Someone can confirm the bug in centos 5.5 ? Have someone a patch ?
