I''m attempting to convert a CentOs 5.6 x64 machine from Xen (Open Source) to Citrix XenServer and I am having some trouble towards the final stages. I need to take the .XVA created by XVA.PY and use XenConvert to manipulate this into another file format (OVF). Here''s the process I use: 1. Poweroff the VM 2. Create a new disk in 3 times the size of the primary 3. Sign in to

Hi guys I have installed Xen 4 on Debian Lenny 5.0. I have a physical Windows 2003 Server and I wanna convert this server on a virtual server... I try to use XenConvert but without sucsess...

Thanks for all the help... XVP seems quite high on requirements. Like it needs an SMTP server set up. I''m not sure I like that. I found a tool called BixData, it''s proprietary but with a free license for a limited number of managed servers. Being a fully fledged cloud management system, it''s true overkill for me and my 3-4 virtual machines, but at least it seems quite

Hi. I have problem with installation XCP and XenServer on DomU. Installation just stuck after a while from installation beginning. DomU just stop responding, even reconnect with vncviewer isn''t possible. I''m using iso images to install. Dom0 is kernel 3.6-rc7 with xen 4.2.1-pre. I''m having such log: -videoram option does not work with cirrus vga device model. Videoram

Hello, It is nearly not possible to use XCP without a tutorial, in particular if ones has to use the xe CLI. Reading of reference.pdf and guests.pdf of XenServer and different wiki pages didn''t help enough. Even *XCP seems to be a very good software* it will be useless without good documentation because of it''s complexity. Thank you in advance for any hints. Regards, Mark

Hi all, I`m evaluating methods for nightly "snapshot" a physical win2003 to xcp vm. I know it would be a lot easier and reliable just to to one convert one time and start to generate real vm snapshots, but at this time I cannot use this method. I tested the sequence: disk2vdh -> xenconvert (to xcp), but a big deal of using this method is that xenconvert does not send

Hello! I''m quite new to Xen, and am wondering what is the best way to handle my XCP based server... Eg. video console for installation and maintenance, shutdown, restart, disk and memory config, etc. I read about openxenmanager, but it seems like an abandoned project, and seems extremely nontrivial to use under OSX. What about XenWebManager? I need to install that on the XCP server

Hi, What is the preferred OS to use with XEN, as the dom0 host? We primarely us CentOS (currently 5.6) but it seems that the native XEN that comes with CentOS is a bit behind. What is the preferred OS to run on the dom0''s? -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers SoftDux Website: http://www.SoftDux.com Technical Blog: http://Blog.SoftDux.com Office: 087 805 9573 Cell: 082 554 7532

Hi list, I have recently migrated to XCP from Vmware Server 2 and have run into issues importing the VM''s Following citrix''s guide I tried using XenCenter to do the import directly on the vmdk files this resulted in XenCenter logging this error: "Failed to import. ---> System.Exception: Failed to import virtual disk file. ---> System.Xml.XmlException: Root element

Bonjour, Est ce qu''une ressource parmi vous a déjà effectuer une migration de machine virtuelle de XEN vers XENSERVER? J''aimerai changer de serveur en migrant toutes mes VM du serveur xen vers le serveur xenserveur. Est ce que des personnes ont déjà effectuer ce genre de migration? Si oui comment avez vous procéder? D''avance merci pour vos nombreaux retour. Cdlt.

I'm thinking on how to prove you a sample XVA I have to create (and populate) a VM because an empty image will result in an empty XVA And a VM is 300-400Mb as minimum Il 15 nov 2017 10:30 PM, "Max Reitz" <mreitz@redhat.com> ha scritto: > On 2017-11-15 21:41, Gandalf Corvotempesta wrote: > > 2017-11-15 21:29 GMT+01:00 Richard W.M.

I just ordered quite a few servers, and, without verifying ahead of time, ordered without hard drives planning to boot over iSCSI using the built-in network cards (NOT an iSCSI HBA). I''m wondering if anyone has tried (and hopefully succeeded) installing XCP to an iSCSI volume using a network card with iSCSI boot support and the software iSCSI initiator in XCP. Obviously I can order HDs

[previously posted to xen-devel@ and xen-api@ but this might be of interest to xen-users@ too] Hi, I''ve refreshed the Xen Cloud Platform (XCP) .isos on xen.org with a new development snapshot (labelled version 0.1.1). XCP is a collaborative effort to build a complete cloud infrastructure platform, complete with a powerful management stack, standards-based APIs, support for multi-tenancy

Hi list, Right now I''ve to find some graphic (or web!) interface to administrate our new data center infrastructure who will be running over Xen. I''ve been googling around to find something, and looks like Enomaly is a good choice. Can anybody give me some feedback about this? Or maybe recommend another front-end interface? Thanks in advance. Boris.

I think the title says it all :) I got far enough along in the Xen documentation that the documentation recommended me to start using XenCenter to manage the server. Why am I being asked by XenCenter to register my XCP 1.0 server? I know it''s similar, but it''s not a Citrix XenServer... ;) >From what I can gather, XCP is open source freeware...correct me if I''m

We''re going to be converting 13 servers this weekend to XenServer 6.2. Most of them are Windows and we''ll be using XenConvert. However, we do have 8 Linux based servers (3 CentOS6 and 5 Ubuntu 8.04+) that will need to be converted. I''m wondering what you guys have *successfully* used in the past to get Linux based servers converted to XenServer? I''ve been
