similar to: ESX Server 2.5 - Centos 5.1 guest

Just curious but how long has ESX support been in libvirt? Also I noticed this error when accessing one of my windows vms: error: internal error Expecting VMX entry 'scsi0.virtualDev' to be 'buslogic' or 'lsilogic' but found 'lsisas1068' Not sure whether this is an enhancement, defect, or not supported at this time. Thanks. -Jon

Hi everyone, I''m trying to convert some Xen HVM images to run on VMware ESX, unsuccessfully thus far. I believe the problem is that ESX by default wants the VMs to use SCSI virtual disks, but my HVM VMs are configured to use IDE virtual disks. If you have any experience with this sort of thing, please get in touch. Thanks! Diwaker -- http://floatingsun.net/

I have several CentOS5 hosts in a VMware ESX 3.5.0 226117 environment using iSCSI storage. Recently we've begun to experience journal aborts resulting in remounted-read-only filesystems as well as other filesystem issues - I can unmount a filesystem and force a check with "fsck -f" and occasionally find errors. I've found -

I'm considering upgrading, and am trying to choose a modern motherboard that nevertheless fully works with Centos5/RHEL5. Though I'm partial to AMD processors, and would like to use one in my new configuration, that's not a requirement, if the most appropriate board happens to be intel-compatible. However, given the way ASUS is dumping LInux and crawling more firmly into bed with

Hi, Dear Mr/Mrs. I have two questions ask for help: my virt-manager and libvirt version is : linux-vaan:~ # rpm -q libvirt libvirt-0.8.5-1.2.i586 linux-vaan:~ # uname -a Linux linux-vaan 2.6.34-12-desktop #1 SMP PREEMPT 2010-06-29 02:39:08 +0200 i686 i386 GNU/Linux linux-vaan:~ # rpm -q virt-manager virt-manager-0.8.5-3.1.i586 linux-vaan:~ # cat /etc/SuSE-release openSUSE 11.3 (i586) VERSION =

Hi, Is there a way to fetch the current IP address of a running guest domain (with VMware Tools installed) running on an ESX host? Ideally this would be doable via the libvirt Python bindings. Thank you. -- sengork

I'm having speed problems with the SCSI card we're using to do tape backup. It seems to be functioning in 16 bit mode and the current thinking is that perhaps it's using a legacy driver instead of the correct one. The Adaptec site has a 'driver' for RHEL5 which I've downloaded and tried to install but it seems to have a problem installing on a CentOS-5 system. [root at

Hi, I just compiled libvirt with ESX support. I can login just fine, list all the guests/domains but when I try to reboot or shutdown one of my guests/domains I get this error: virsh # reboot dbcluster1 error: Failed to reboot domain dbcluster1 error: internal error HTTP response code 500 for call to 'RebootGuest'. Fault: ServerFaultCode - fault.RestrictedVersion.summary And nothing

Thanks, I'll check it out.

Hi, I am doing poc for using libvirt api for implementation of esx in python. I tried researching through module but did not find a way how it works for esx. Any help on how to proceed specifically for esx would be of great help. Please let me know as soon as possible, lagging on deliverables. Thanks for help!! Regards Rohit Singh

Hello All, I have just started studying the libvirt and I am trying to connect to ESX Server (version 4) using virsh (version 0.7.5) using the following command: virsh -c esx+ssh://root@<fully qualified hostname)> It inquires the root password and as soon as I inform the password it throws the error: error: cannot recv data: Connection reset by peer error: failed to connect to the

Thanks a ton for the reply Matthias. I tried your suggestion but now I got one more message saying: *virsh # connect esx://172.16.73.14/?no_verify=1* *Enter username for 172.16.73.14 [root]: root* *Enter root's password for 172.16.73.14: * *error: Failed to connect to the hypervisor* *error: internal error: curl_easy_perform() returned an error: Unsupported protocol (1) : Protocol https not

Hi, I've been trying to figure out how to create a new domain(create a new virtual machine) using the ESX driver. The documentation at http://libvirt.org/drvesx.html says: To define a new domain the driver converts the domain XML into a VMware VMX file and uploads it to a datastore known to the ESX server. Because multiple datastores may be known to an ESX server the driver needs to decide

I''m posting here as this seems to be a zfs issue. We also have an open ticket with Sun support and I''ve heard another large sun customer also is reporting this as an issue. Basic Problem: Create a zfs file system and set shareiscsi to on. On a vmware esx server discover that iscsi target. It shows up as 249 luns. When attempting to then add the storage esx server eventually

Depends what you need to do you can transform it with xmltodict or use some higher level API. I'm not sure I can

Dear All, I would like to know what functions and classes are implemented in the ESX(i) driver ? i am trying to use virsh to retrieve some simple information such as vcpuinfo domain, but it is not working, so I would like to know what functions are implemented in libvirt ESX(i) driver. Also i checked the http://libvirt.org/drvesx.html and nothing is mentioned there. Thank You, Regards, Sherif

I have a IBM XSeries 366 with 04 processors Intel Xeon 3.16 Ghz, 16 Gb of memory and a storage IBM with 2 terabytes.

When I intsall RHES4 as guest operating system under ESX, the performance is very good. It will
