similar to: "near native" performance with xen?

I installed a CentOS-5 core OS (using --nobase in my kickstart). For some reason, it included mysql-5.0.22. When I do "yum remove mysql", it says it will also remove exim and mdadm for dependencies. I don't care that exim will be removed, but I need mdadm as I'm doing software RAID. But why are these even related? When I do: rpm -q --requires mysql neither exim or mdadm is

I'm interested in doing centralized logging & analysis of logs from my CentOS boxes. I messed around with syslog-ng and it seems like it's a better syslog. But I noticed most of the "usual suspects" of third-party repo maintainers (Dag, Axel, etc.) don't include it. Karanbir has an el4 version, but all my boxes are CentOS 5. I was going to go ahead and roll my own

I''m going to set up a PVM on xen-3.3.1 debian-amd64. I need advices about the best methods to install a fresh debian on it (i.e. how to choose the kernel for pvm) . I''ve installed xen from sources and only have one xen kernel in /boot which I''m using for dom0; should I use the same kernel for domUs? There is any problem on use vcpus=2; the other vm is an hvm running

Based on some tests we ran, it seems the biggest performance hit you get from running within domU is from disk I/O. We did some mysql read and write tests, and for both, our performance is about half that compared to native. Has that been others'' experience? Is there any way to make this better? We are using physical partitions. In contrast, cpu/memory tests appear to be near

Hello, I successfuly run Centos 5.1 domU in Centos 5.1 dom0. But I still have some minor issues/errors/warnings while booting I'd like to fix and here are my questions: 1.

Hi, All I''m just new to this list, I''m started to dealing with OSS Xen to XCP migration earlier this week, seem the domUs installed via virt-install are function well, but domUs copied via dom0 are failed during bootup process, finally I realize if I could fix this on my OSS Xen will resolve all. Can I have any suggestion from you please ? *Details* *Source XenHost* OS:

I''m almost afraid to ask because this probably sticks out like a sore thumb on the wiki somewhere, and I''m just not seeing it. But I have a bunch of files with the same owner/mode. Is there a way to somehow collapse these, so that all I repeat is the file name? Example: file { "/opt/test/1": owner => "jtan", group =>

Hello, what would be the easiest and fastest way to migrate a file based DomU to a LVM based DomU. Given that the file contains a partition table + partitions. I tried with an dummy approach: dd if=/path/to/file.img of=/dev/volumegroup/logical-volume. That gives me a logical volume that xm create refuses to use....

I have a new development box at home that I am working on. Currently it has CentOS 5.1 + Xen 3.2 running several domUs. I am using XDMCP on the domUs and an X Chooser on dom0 for connecting to them and it works well, but now I want to be able to get sound from my domUs and I have been struggling. I can get some from network transparent sound by using ESD, but I have no way of controlling the

Using audit2allow, I was able to create a policy module for selinux: audit2allow -i /var/log/audit/audit.log -M mysqld (creates mysqld.pp and mysqld.te) I want to distribute this to all my puppet clients. I can easily put this file in /etc/selinux/targeted/modules/active/modules But even after reboot, although I can see the module listed: semodule -l ... it doesn''t seem to actually

Hi all, This is my first post to the list, I hope someone out there can help! I am running xen 3.0.3, with CentOS 5.2 based Dom0 (kernel-xen-2.6.18-92.1.22.el5) Recently I have noticed some complete system lockups on a few different servers. Neither Dom0 or any of the guests respond to pings, connecting a keyboard and monitor to the system only shows a blank screen. Nothing is written to logs

I''m trying to get DHCP working with DomU clients. I don''t want to use libvirtd. There''s a dhcpd on the machine and it works fine for all clients in the network, but not for DomUs. If I set a static IP on the DomU all networking for them is fine, so there''s no general networking problem. I use the xen 3.2 packages for CentOS on CentOS 5.1. There was a public

Hello List, I am testing a XCP1 CentOS 5 paravirt vm with CloudLinux. http://cloudlinux.com/ CloudLinux is a great product for shared hosting and I was evaluation same on a paravirt guest. I found a strange thing in XCP. CloudLinux provides xen kernel for DomUs and after installing the CloudLinux in a DomU it actually got 32 cpus inside. I had assigned only 2 vCPU to that DomU. To confirm this I

Hello, When I needed to build Xen guests under Debian I could follow more or less the instructions in http://preview.tinyurl.com/2oc48r and the advantage of this approach is that it allows me to setup the Xen guest directly on the LVM partition without making it consider the LVM partition as an entire disk with a partition table. The advantages of this approach are: 1. I can add more LVM's
