I''ve installed Xen Hypervisor 3.0.3 (CentOS 5.7, i386) inside Virtualbox 4.1.16 (Mageia 1, i686) and have noticed that Dom0 is consuming 85% of the memory allocated to the VM (1GB) so I''d like to reduce this as much as possible in order to make more room for one or two VM''s. Is there a minimum amount of vRAM that can/should be allocated to Dom0 (using the dom0_mem boot

1. I''d like to experiment with XCP by creating a nested arrangment - XCP on VirtualBox - but need to know what "version" of Linux to specify when creating the VM. 2. I''m currently using a 32-bit host. (Mageia-1 is/was only available as a 32-bit O/S when I installed it.) Does XCP require a 64-bit architecture? Eric Pretorious Truckee, CA

When I attempt to migrate a VM from one host to another (sles-xen-2 -> sles-xen-1) I get the error message: > sles-xen-2:~ # xm migrate --live SLES-11-SP2-1 192.168.1.3 > Error: can''t connect: [Errno 111] Connection refused > ... What might be the problem? FWIW: I''ve already verified that iptables rules have been cleared and that xend does not have any ports open

Is it possible to create a highly-available OCFS2 cluster (i.e., A storage cluster that mitigates the single point of failure [SPoF] created by storing an OCFS2 volume on a single LUN)? The OCFS2 Project Page makes this claim... > OCFS2 is a general-purpose shared-disk cluster file system for Linux capable of providing both high performance and high availability. ...but without backing-up

Has anyone experimented with installing XCP from a USB thumb drive? Is it possible? How was the installation media installed to the USB thumb drive (e.g., dd)?

I wonder if someone can point me in right directions. I have two dell servers I setup iscsi so I have four 2 tb hard drives and i had used lvm to create one big partiton and share it using iscsi. How I go about assigning sections of iscsi for virtual hard drives . should go about assigning Should I export the whole 8TB as one iscsi and then use lvm to create smaller virtual disk. Or should I

Hi everybody, we had an overwhelming vote for a 1/2 day invite only DevDay on the Sunday before XenSummit. I will look at logistics and then get back to you. Regards Lars

Which of these would be the recommended virtualization platform for mainly CentOS guest on CentOS host for running a virtualized mail server? From what I've read, objectively it seems that VMWare's still the way to go although I would had like to go with Xen or KVM just as a matter of subjective preference. VMWare's offering seems to have the best support and tools, plus likely the

hi all, I was following Xen beginners Guid. I downloaded , burnt on cd and installed Debian squeeze on 64 bit x86 machine. my problem is that i''m stuck at ''setup the linux bridge '' step. whenever I issue the command " aptitude install bridge-utils", its output told me that there is no package exist which could be matched with bridge-utils. I''ve checked

Hello, http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=ubuntu_1110_xenkvm&num=1 Ubuntu 11.10 with Xen 4.1.1 and Linux 3.0. Xen seems to be doing very poorly on that benchmark. If someone has time to repeat that benchmark it would be good.. Comparing the results to those from Stefano from XenSummit 2011 NA there has be something wrong.. the results at XenSummit were pretty much the

Hi, I have hybrid smp running with autoxlate. However, without autoxlate, I am running into issues realted to TLB flush. The guest in this case makes multicalls as part of which cache is flushed (__do_update_va_mapping, etc..). However, the guest is using VPIDs and it is getting complicated. I can just xen not do any TLB management and let the guest just do it after return from the hypercall.

Hi list, I''ve read about recent efforts to push pv-on-hvm drivers to Linux mainline and I''m curious to know the cause for this. What''s the advantage over using pv_ops directly and booting the kernel paravirtualized? Are there plans to move Linux domUs closer to the KVM way (from an architectural point of view)? Hope you can help. Regards, Markus

Hi all, I have plan to replace my Centos5.7 VM with newer version. The VM works as our network gateway. I want to ask from your experience, will it be a bad decision? My concern is that since the Mac Address of the gateway will change, will it disrupt the network? How fast the Switches can recognize the new mac? Any other pitfall? Thanks Fajar.
