Hi All, I'm having issue with creating LVM volume via libvirt. XML of LVM StoragePool is:     VG01             /dev/VG01       (existing vg) XML of create volume in lvm pool is:     ub_test01.img     0     1                 When I create the volume with above XML defn, lvs command to list logical volume shows a value in the origin column indicating it was created as snapshot.. the

Hello everybody, i am a newbie in using Xen. The first three tries to install Xen on my Gentoo box aren''t very successfull. But now i know how to get the dom0 Domain running.

Hi folks We migrated storage from local disk to SAN with: # rsync -avz /mnt/lvol00045/* /lvol00045 Why there is a difference in size? How to explain this? Do we have inconsistency? What we did wrong?

Greetings All, I was running libvirt-0.9.10 on CentOS 6.3 and it was working perfectly until yesterday when I decided to update to 6.4, which upgraded libvirt-0.9.10 to libvirt-0.10.2. I have a storage pool of type volume group, upon upgrading to libvirt-0.10.2, the disk image gets created as a snapshot on the volume group not as a regular volume. Now every time I create a vm using

Hi List, please excuse that this post is again about networking with XEN. Even though I googled and checked other posts for some days now I did not manage to get my installation working. Following some advises I used the late binding of pci. So I created a /etc/modprobe.de/local and added: options pciback hide=(03:00.0)(04:00.0) install e1000 /sbin/modprobe pciback ; /sbin/modprobe

Hey all, I''m trying to figure out how to re-size physical partitions in the Dom U. I''ve read up what I can find on line and finally decided to have Logical Volumes in the Dom 0 and pass them as physical volumes for use in the Dom U. Here''s an example of what I''m doing. To start in the Dom 0 I created the LV''s with lvcreate -n guest_boot -L 100M

I have been playing with Xen 3.0.1 for some days now, using debian sarge for dom0 and domU''s, and it works like a charm. But, I have a problem with rebooting domU''s. Here is the output from /var/log/xend.log [2006-03-30 13:44:58 xend.XendDomainInfo] INFO (XendDomainInfo:823) Domain has shutdown: name=vmintraweb1 id=5 reason=reboot .

Hi, how can I install a openSuSE 10.3 PV-guest on a LVM-drive of a openSuSE 10.3 host with Xen 3.10? On 10.2 with Xen 3.0.3 the openSuSE-YaST-module for managing VMs could install the system also on block-devices, unfortunately this is not possible anymore with OSS 10.3 :-( What I have tried: - I created two LVM-partitions, one for "/" one for swap. - Installing an OSS 10.2 PV-guest

hello, i am a newbie to this list and i don't know if this has been posted before (if so, plzz accept my apologies) i just noticed a nice mini-howto on ext2-ext3 conversion at http://www.symonds.net/~rajesh/howto/ext3/index.html i think that maybe a link can be added to this after the download section... cheers Sayamindu *********************************************************************

I just installed CentOS 8 in a VirtualBox VM, to explore it. Immediately, I noticed something strange. I insatlled it using a kickstart file, whose partitioning section is this: zerombr clearpart --all --initlabel reqpart --add-boot part pv.01 --ondisk=/dev/sda --size=1 --grow volgroup vg01 pv.01 logvol / --name=lv_root --vgname=vg01 --size=1 --grow bootloader --driveorder=sda On CentOS 7, this

Hello everybody, I''m new to Xen so forgive me if this is already well known issue. I''m using Ubuntu server 7.04 (feisty) with Xen 3.0.3 Everything works perfectly, apart from networking in NAT mode. With bridging it works, with NAT it works, well, quite strange. Namely, pings go through and name resolution works. But when I try to use anything substantial, then

Hi all. I'm using libvirt 1.2.6 I want to use lvm storage for my virtual machines. But i want to use new lvm2 feature - thin pool. How can i do that in libvirt?

I''m trying to get a new file server managed by puppet from day 1, at least as much as possible. At the moment, though, there''s two issues I''m running into: 1. fstab should have entries for my comically-large RAID, but doesn''t. 2. each puppet run appears to remount the RAID, even when no rules in the manifest change. I suspect the issue may be in parsing

Hi, I''m the Mageia XEN packager and during QA, we stumbled into a problem. in fact, we wanted to test Mageia 3 installation on a HVM. so, we had a sparse image and a iso file: [ ''file:/opt/testhvm.img,sda,w'', ''file:/opt/mageialive.iso,hdb:cdrom,r'' ] the live booted, and was able to install to disk, but it never seemed to boot after the install...

Hi all, I have aproblem with Samba copying (unfortunatly I'm new to samba so my skills are fairly limited). I have a sun box (solaris 8) with samba 2.2.2. Copying from sun to a nt server is fast (as good as you would expect) however, copying from the nt server to the sun box is slow (files copy normally, then slow to a complete halt then copy very slowly). We cannot see anything on a

Hi all, I had centos 5.9 installed with one of its volumes (non-root) on LVM: ... /dev/vgapps/lvapps /opt/apps ext3 defaults 1 2 ... Then installed centos 6.4 on this servers but without exporting this volume (I wanted to reuse it). After that instead importing it I did: # pvcreate /dev/sddlmac # vgcreate vgapps /dev/sddlmac And then realised that I should have
