Hey Jim, I was wondering if you or someone on your team could give me an idea what the status of libxl support is in libvirt, particularly wrt various releases? I''m asking because I''m going to UDS next week to talk about the 13.04 release, and it would be good to get Xen 4.2 in; but that in part depends on whether there will be libvirt support for 4.2 in whatever version of

hello, if i start a transient guest doamin via "virsh create abcd.xml" i see an additional libvirt thread and also some open files: pstree -h `pgrep libvirtd` libvirtd───11*[{libvirtd}] libvirtd 3016 root 21w REG 253,0 6044 1052094 /var/log/libvirt/libxl/abcd.log libvirtd 3016 root 22r FIFO 0,8 0t0 126124 pipe libvirtd 3016 root

''vncdisplay=N'' in hvm config file is ignored when building qemu-dm arguments. xm create or xm new -> xm start with hvm config file containing vnc=1 vncdisplay=5 results in ''-vncunused'' being passed to qemu-dm. There are several approaches for a fix - this patch defaults vncdisplay to None in xm options. It currently defaults to 1 and is always included in

Hi. Thanks to help of this mailing list (especially Jim Fehlig), I have finished setup of libvirt. However, there is something weird. It is that I installed libvirt on 5 servers but the default connection of one of them is 'qemu:///' even if those of the others are all 'xen:///'. I searched how to change it but, I only found a bypass adding "

a, libxl_event.h is included in libxl.h. So, the former one also need to be installed. b, define __XEN_TOOLS__ in libxl.h: the head file "xen/sysctl.h" need check this macro. It is the same way used by the xen libxc public headers(tools/libxc/xenctrl.h and tools/libxc/xenctrlosdep.h). Signed-off-by: Bamvor Jian Zhang <bjzhang@suse.com> diff -r 87218bd367be

Hello, I have a problem shutting down a domU with xen-4.1.2, which doesn''t terminate the corresponding blktap2 process, since one (other) VM uses a image file, which contains spaces in its file name. /var/log/xen/xend-debug.log has the following information: Unhandled exception in thread started by Traceback (most recent call last): File

Hi I have been using pygrub for most of the needs. Was trying out some stuff on SLES 10 SP1. It seems that it does not have pygrub!! On the other hand,they have domUloader.py which requires bootargs="--entry=hda:/boot/vmlinuz...., path to ramdisk. It is quite strange to be asking for the path of the kernel and the ramdisk to be supplied in the conf file!!. Am I missing something

Jim, Thanks for that, I had manually installed libvirt-daemon-driver-xen, but also needed to install libvirt-daemon-driver-libxl. I can now create VMs and convert config formats. However the daemon still fails to start on bootup. It starts fine when I manually start it with "systemctl start libvirtd" but setting it to autostart with "systemctl enable libvirtd" seems

hi, I use xl toolstack to manage vms on a Xen machine, and also pass some custom parameters when creating a vm, for example: xl create vm.cfg ' param="xyz" ' I am moving to libvirt for vm management. How I can pass those extra parameters using libvirt? Thanks.

When i tried virsh migrate <vm> xen+ssh://user@remote/system I get the error This function is not supported by the connection driver:virDomainMigrate3
