I''m installing a new server, and I want know waht is better: - Install xen from source from xen.org version 3.4.2 ? - Install xen fron apt-get from debian package 3.2.1 ? The server has Debian Lenny. What is correct on production server ? -- Martin _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com

Hello Everyone, I am hoping I can get some help with how vCPUs work with weights and caps 1. If I have a domU with 2 vCPUs and a weight of 256, does the weight double (512) or is this 256 time slice across both vCPUs. If the weight does not double, how is it beneficial to have multiple vCPUs? 2. If the domU has 2vCPUs and a cap of 100% how does this work since 100% is a mex of one physical

Hi All, What is the best way to remotely monitor/administer a group of xen domUs across a network? We''re planning to deploy a few H/W servers with paravirtualized domUs. What are the best alternatives? What works and What doesn''t? Share your experiences.

Hello all, does anybody of you have running this version of Ubuntu running as PV domU? I am trying to create domU with that OS using xen-tools from Debian Squeeze with special pygrub role script which installs Ubuntu kernel, creates initrd and grub config. ii xen-tools 4.2-1 Tools to manage Xen

Hello folks, I have a Xen server running on Centos 6.2 with 3.6.6-1.el6xen.x86_64 as the Dom0 kernel, and i have dedicted 2 CPUs and 4G ram for the Dom0.I have close to 4-5 Virtual machines running on the Xen server. The problem is that for some reason,carrying outany CPU/Disk intensive task on the Dom0 seems to be affecting the DomUs adversly.For ex.i noticed that my Domus become extremly

Hello, I noticed a strace delay when running "virsh list" on my Xen-4.1.3 test server. On further investigation I noticed that in XenStore there were multiple /vm/$UUID entries suffixed by -$VERSION, especially I hat 16 entries for my dom0. For each reboot of the host I get a new entry. After disabling Xend I get the following output after a reboot: > root at xen5:~# xenstore-ls

I just downloaded Xen-4.1.1 from xen.org, compiled it, and installed it. I then compiled kernel 3.0.0 and added the hypervisor and dom0 kernel in a grub 2 entry. After booting, I executed "xl list," to confirm the hypervisor was running. I was greeted with this message: libxl: error: libxl.c:56:libxl_ctx_init Is xenstore daemon running? failed to stat /var/run/xenstored.pid: No such

Package: xen-utils-4.0 Version: 4.0.1-2 Hi, When you change XENCONSOLED_ARGS in /etc/default/xend, there's no normal way to apply it. Even if you do '/etc/init.d/xend stop', that doesn't stop xenconsoled, despite the fact the analogous 'start' action did start it. There isn't even a separate init script action to stop it, it has to be killed manually. Same goes for

By default, /var/lib/xenstored is mounted tmpfs in centos 5 but this doesn't appear to be true for Xen4CentOS. This can cause performance issues as mentioned in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=446089 I'm not sure if this should be part of xencommons, but if not, adding a tmpfs mount should probably be documented on the quick start wiki page. Thanks, Sarah

Package: xen-utils-common Version: 3.0.3-0-2 Severity: normal There should be a clean and clearly defined way to restart all the Xen daemons in the case of error. If the file /var/lib/xenstored/tdb is corrupt then you must stop xenstored, rm the file, and then restart it. Currently there is no defined way of doing this so the solution is to kill -9 the process, rm the file, and then reboot. --

Hi all, xend communicates with xenstored using unix domain sockets right? So, would it be possible to convert the unix domain sockets to tcp/ip sockets and let xenstored run on a different machine?

(Sorry, lost Keir''s mail). I''m unclear on why we have to have the mapping part of solving the xendev problem. Can''t we just allocate a transaction as usual if we see an ID without a transaction existing, mark it as pre-fail, and when we see the transaction end, discard the copy as if it had raced? Surely the ID lookup is guaranteed to fail in the circumstances we care

As any other daemon, I''d assume it should be possible to restart xenstored (i.e. if it crashed or if, during development, a fix was made to it that needs to be tested). However, as I learned after over a day of digging, things don''t work anymore after doing so: Since the watches are transient, they''re lost with the daemon going away. Right now I specifically need this in

Hi, I am using xen-4.1-testing with Linux 3.4.3. The hotplug script xencommons echoes that xenstore is not restartable. Can anyone tell me the exact reason why it is not restartable. I tried to restart xenstore by killing the xenstore and restarting it with xencommons but after that VM creation doesn''t work. I used to do the same with the setting <xen-3.4+Linux-2.6.18> and it used

Hi folks Some time ago I split out the xenstore utils out of the main utils package. I thought myself what could possibly be wrong and found nothing. I was wrong. Xen upstream decided to break the protocol between the client library and the daemon in a subtle way. This was compensated with a change in the daemon. Earlier versions of the library used the kernel access method as default. There is
