Hello, I looked in the the documents. Looks like the <cputune> period and quota will only support qemu driver. Of for xen user, how to set the hard cpu limit? -- Tony

Hi all, I'm playing with virsh, and I succeed to mange easily some KVM nodes. But I have issues to size RAM of openvz guests. virsh set by default the the memory to 256M on each guest instead of that I specify in the XML I have to modify by end the variable PHYSPAGES on each /etc/vz/conf/id_of_my_vz.conf Please follow the XML dump and the steps that I did. Cheers,Aurelien Log ---- 1)

Hello, this is a question I wanted to ask you since a long time because there is something not too much clear to me, as regard the memory management in XEN. I don''t want to go too much in deep with such argument, but It''s just to understand what is the best setup for my environment. I know about memory ballooning (http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenBestPractices) and the

Hello, I noticed that the CPU% reported by xentop appears to be too high. With dom0 idle xentop is reporting between 14-17% CPU utilization while at the same time top in dom0 is reporting 1-4% CPU utilization. I see that the TODO for xentop includes a task to make CPU% more accurate but looking at the code for xentop and libxenstat I''m not sure how to go about this. Assuming the CPU

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

Hello, I've been trying to boot a VM with the rootfs being a 9P share from the host. The VM OS is centos 7. The OS boots but no services can work and it appears that the authentication system is broken. Now the funny thing is that booting the same OS on the same 9P share manually with Qemu works as expected with a fully functionnal OS... So I'm wondering what could libvirt do that render

Hello, I want to monitor the outgoing and incoming monthly internet usage. How can I do that? -- Tony

Hello to all, Does anyone know if there is an iteration option planned for xentop (similar to top) to make it easier for simple shell scripts to scrape the output? I don''t see one in tools/xenstat/xentop/xentop.c , but I''ve been meaning to play with stuff in libxenstat anyway. If its going to be added soon I''ll tinker much later than sooner. TIA :) Best, -Tim

Hi guys, First of all, sorry to send this one here on the centos ml. I know it's kind of off-topic, but the xen-users list seems a dead end, I was hoping some of you guys are experienced in this. I have a problem with a xen 3.4.2 on Centos 5 x86_64 installation, I need to see the total/used/available memory of dom0 when using xentop, however in batch mode it doesn't seem to work. If I use

Hi I am using xen4.0.3 in Opensuse11.4. I need to do the monitoring of VM''s and on that basis take the migration decision so I am trying to write my own xentop like program. But I am facing trouble while using xenstat.h in my C program. test.c:3:24: fatal error: xenstat.h: No such file or directory But my xentop is working fine. What to do in this case.

I am creating some custom nagios plugins and I am scraping data from xen using the nagios command: /usr/sbin/xentop -b -i 2 -d1 I am trying to get the network tx / rx data, however I think I am missing something here. NETTX(k) NETRX(k) So total network bandwidth is 1048576 k if the above header from xentop is true. So I am wondering why the output for each vm exceeds the theoretical max, Is

Hi, One of our colleagues spotted a problem in xentop. Sometimes the VBD_WSECT value suddenly becomes unreasonably high, and it turned out xentop reads /sys/bus/xen-backend/devices/vbd-(domid)-(devID)/statistics/wr_sect into an unsigned long long. That value is exposed by blkback, and among other stat counters, it''s a signed integer: drivers/block/xen-blkback/common.h struct

xentop "-b" options are duplicateded(--batch and --vbds). from xen-unstable 10623 Please fix it. http://xenbits.xensource.com/xen-unstable.hg?cs=856caf975abd Thanks, Atsushi SAKAI _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel

Hi All, I''m a beginner in Xen. Recently I''ve configured one VM (vm03) hosted in my physical machine. I ran the "netperf" workload in the vm01, and used the "top" command in the vm03 to test the behavior of the running workload. Meanwhile, I also used the "xentop" command in domain0 to see the resource consumption in vm03. Interestingly, I found that
