similar to: CentOS 6.X balloon issue [ XCP 1.5 / CentOS6 Bug ]

As seen on the mailinglist, many have been hit by the issues with the igb driver included in xcp 1.1 and below ( and 5.6 fp* and below as well ), version 2.4.3, which due to a bug prevents VLAN tagging and other features from working correct (sr-iov). This mainly affects systems with Intel 82576 nics. There are work arounds for this, mainly updating the driver from intel, see here:

Hi, I have installed XenDesktop5.5 (express) and followed your XenDesktop 5 - QSG.pdf guide and I having this problem after a successful installation: "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." pop up when do quick deploy.  See attached xendesktop-error.jpg I am running XCP1.1 rc-base-50674 which is equivalent to XenServer 5.6 SP2.

Hi everyone, We faced a dom0 crash on XCP1.1 and Xen 3.4.2. I''ve attached the log file for reference. On dom0 we could find only "Xc.Error" and then reboot of host. There is no information in /var/crash/ or other log files. Interestingly the "INTERNAL_ERROR" variable keeps growing until a length and then host reboots. Possible memory overlap ? Could someone please

Hi, This is slightly OT as xen is not officially supported in EL6. But maybe someone else is running it on centos6 as well and could help me out here: I have problems allocating a static amount of memory for my xen dom0. It seems to reduce when new domUs are created, even though I *think* ballooning is disabled. Can someone advise me what I'm doing wrong? I have xen-4.1.1-3 installed from

Hello there, i am trying to create a VM using xcp on my system, with os Ubuntu 11.10. I’ve got 3 server on my testbed and in the near future i am going to try a VM live migration from a server to another, but actually I am having few problems.  The first one : i installed the xcp-xapi on 2 of my servers, and when i give the command #xe template-list One of the server gives me the list, while the

I got really strange situation with memory on host: xe host-list params=memory-free memory-free ( RO) : 10305536 (10Mb) xe host-compute-free-memory 3147059200 (3Gb) A huge difference! And xentop show different numbers too! I will keep this host online "as is" and I am ready to provide information for debbugging or perform needed actions. -- wBR,George.

Hi, I build Xen 4.1.1 on a Gentoo base dom0. Everything is working great. I tried one of Joseph Glanville''s PV-HVM image (debian6) and its working as it should. Now l''im trying to build a Gentoo based domU with then same specs as Joseph''s PV-HVM. I used a copy of the .cfg and adapted to my needs to make the gentoo work. when booting the minimal install image using

Hi all, So I have been playing around with XCP and the static/dynamic memory parameters. I have a few behavioral questions I would like to pin down: -Is the static-max quantity of free memory on the host always required before the guest vm can be started? I assume so since you don''t know a-priori if the guest you are booting supports Xen or not. But if this is true, what is the use of

XenServer Installation Guide from  http://www.citrix.com/site/resources/dynamic/salesdocs/XenServer_Quick_Installation_Guide.pdf This is a step by step guide for the installation.  I have some questions as to the content of the guide: p.5 Enable thin provisioning (Optimized storage for XenDesktop).

I created a NFS VHD SR(\nfs\xxxx-yyyy-zzzz-wwww) on host “A” and created set of disks(vhds). I de-attached the SR from “A” and attached to host “B”. Host B seeing all the disks. Its working up to that fine. But I again de-attached the SR and attached to host A, it shows no disks in that SR. While reattaching to host “A” it shows the SR existing but after attached nothing comes. If I create

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

I would like to install XCP. So I started at http://www.xen.org/products/index.html and found the section labeled ''Xen Cloud Platform Project'' This section was a nice overview but no links to docs or downloads. The next section was labeled ''USERS'' which had a download link to ''Xen Cloud Platform 1.5 Beta Download''

Hi List, I'm trying to work out the balloon driver on CentOS6 HVM but it seems to be not working with default 2.6.32 or newer 3.4 kernel. Does balloon driver work on HVM linux guests with Linux Kernel 3.4 from centos repo ? PV is fine and is able to balloon. My host is Xen 4.1.2 with dom0 as 3.4.46-8.el6.centos.alt.x86_64 My guest is CentOS6.4 with kernel 3.4.46-8.el6.centos.alt.x86_64

Hello List, I''m using blktap on XCP 1.1 and developing a difference copy program for easy backup and remote archival. The idea is to read the BAT of VHD1 and sync it to BAT of VHD2 with BITMAP and the data blocks. Other way would be by adding a sha1 signature in each data block and comparing it with remote VHD. I tried to get some info from below programs but could not get required
