I installed virtual machine on my windows vista operating system and am running linux ubuntu. Then i downloaded virtual rails. i created a virtual hard disk as instructed called virtualrailz001.vdi. whenever I try to run the virtual machine I get the following error. Fatal: could not read from the boot medium. system halted from what I read in tutorials im supposed to have the VM mount a

I am unable to mount a vdi image with virt-df. I get this error in the libvirt log. 2012-06-24 02:37:22.484+0000: 2364: error : qemuMonitorIO:583 : internal error End of file from monitor I don't really know from this output what the problem is and some assistance would be appreciated. I'm attaching the output of the libguest test program. Brian

Hello libvirt experts, I use libvirt (0.7.5-5ubuntu27.7) with KVM / qemu (0.12.3+noroms-0ubuntu9.2). Some machines use raw images but same use Virtualbox images (.vdi). Since last Ubuntu 10.04 LTS update I can not start the vdi-images. The "driver name= type=" option was new. <devices> <emulator>/usr/bin/kvm</emulator> <disk type='file'

The current test for .vdi files is incorrect. It tries to detect the string "<<< Sun xVM VirtualBox Disk Image >>>". However this string is just free text and .vdi files often contain different strings (ref: [1]). The correct test in this patch looks for the magic number at offset 0x40 in the file (ref: [2]). Example: Upstream 'file' without the patch on an

[stef204 sent me the full log since it contains sensitive information] The log says that virt-v2v cannot see anything at all on the 34.1 GB disk (as if the disk is blank). However I think the actual problem is that you've given the wrong disk type in the XML: <disk type='file' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>

hi I am having several pools of xcp with NFS shared storage as default SR on each pool and i want to do following in this arrangement -I want to share vdis among all pools, i.e. for example if I want to detach a vdi from a vm in pool-1 to a vm in pool-2. so is this possible to do so? vdi export is one of the solution but i want to do it seamlessly just like it happens within the same pool or

Hi, I am new to v2v/libguestfs. I need to convert a 30 GB virtual machine running Windows7 64 bit (a guest on a Linux system) from Virtualbox vdi format to qcow2 (or raw/img--another debate in itself) so I can use libvirt/qemu/kvm to run it and completely migrate away from Virtualbox. The vdi machine is a mission critical production environment and I cannot afford to mess it up, etc. Will keep

I'm using a Windows raw disk image that is "converted" to the VDI format by custom code that prepends a header to the image. I use 'vdi' for GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_FORMAT of guestfs_add_drive_opts(). After launching the appliance, the call to guestfs_list_partitions() results in an empty list. Is there a way to add the drive but have an offset into the image file as a

Hi, I have successfully built an ADDC on a Centos 6.5 VM running on Citrix XenServer 6.2. It seems to be working well. Now I want to test Citrix VDI-in-a-Box. I've installed vdiManager 5.4.0 on to my XenServer. It wants to authenticate to my AD server. It fails with the message: Could not connect to the user database at 10.0.1.10 with user administrator in domain test.lan I did a

Hi, sorry for asking too much,but is it possible to set the vdi size for a new VM before installation because it is 8G by default or do I have to resize it after installing the VM.

Hello guys, I''m working on a cloud computing project involving Xen Hypervisor. I looked for the issue described in the subject in old posts but no success. I''m using the local storage repository and I can''t set physical_utilisation and virtual_utilisation via xen API because XendVDI.py has hardcoded the 0 value for local repository while is passed for QcoW storage

Hello. We are moving some VMs on XCP 1.6 from an iSCSI Storage to another. One VM gave the following error: The attempt to mark the VDI as hidden failed But, all data has been moved to the new storage, the VM is working and at first sight seems ok. But can I trust it? Anyboday had similar errors? Thanks Thomas _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list

Hi, I would like to backup my Virtual Box VM folder. I have VDI and VMDK files in there. I am told I have to shutdown those virtual machines first in order for rsync to copy them correctly. Is this correct ? Thanks, Dan

Hello Early this summer I made the decision to eliminate my Windows dual boot, I rarely used windows. I have started a new job which will require using a 3d CAD Inventor/Solidworks (Windows software). Inventor starts in vmware workstation. I also switched from OpenSuSE to CentOS after evaluating Ubuntu, RHEL, SLED, and Centos, I wanted a more proven platform, less experimental stuff. For the

Hi, have permanent failure when try to create VDI on local SR type=file or type=ext. On both types it failed with the same error: SR_BACKEND_FAILURE_78 VDI Creation failed [opterr=error 127] I am on Debian box with kernel 3.3.0-rc7, Xen version 4.1.2 (Debian 4.1.2-2.1), Xen-API Version: 1.3.2-4 (Kronos) Is it a bug, or am I missing something? Anybody managed to workaround this problem? Here is

The log snippet doesn''t have the detail in it - have a look in /var/log/SMlog - you might find something more useful in there.
