similar to: Initrd for Domu

Thanks you all guys. I am able to create the RHEL5 PVM on RHEL5 host successfully. Only thing that i need to add is /mnt/etc/fstab in inintrd command and preload to both the fronthend drivers. As blow. # mount /home/disk /mnt # mkinirtd /boot//boot/initrd-2.6.18-8.el5xenU.img 2.6.18-8.el5xen --fstab /mnt/ etc/fstab --with xenblk --with xennet --preload xenblk --preload xennet Thanks a lot,

Once last night and the night before a XenU go into a Zombie state, requiring a reboot. I''m not quite sure what is happening, and am looking for advise on how to diagnose the problem. .. While writing this email, it crashed again. This time I had an ''xm console calcutta'' capturing the output. I read a suggestion in these archives suggesting that I can just

Hi List, I''d compiled Xen-3.0.3-testing (changeset 11740) on Suse 10.0 Enterprise Server. The compilation succeeded without any errors but the mkinitrd command fails(???) The initrd is being created but when loading the xen kernel, I get the following message repeatedly: "azx_get_reponse() timeout" after pressing ^c the computer continue to run... Then, when I start a gnome

Hi everyone! I''m sorry, I think I''m missing something obvious, but I can''t figure out what :/ I have a CentOS 5.2 dom0 on a HP Proliant ML150 with - kernel 2.6.18-92.1.18.el5xen - Xen 3.2.1 and I''m trying to boot a domU installation from the CentOS DVD. I made a custom initrd with mkinitrd /boot/initrd-vm `uname -r` --with xenblk --with xennet --preload

Hello, I'm having a problem, I've seen other people with the same problem, but with USB. Some people solved this with the pciback.permissive option, but in my case it's ignored. I'm using CentOS 5.2 - 2.6.18-92.1.10.el5.centos.plusxen The error return from the console starting the domU is below. I've tried swiotlb=force, pciback.permissive like I said. My configs are:

Hello I''m trying to convert a HVM to PV dom0. The domU is a 10SP2 SLED ( Kernel 2.6.16.60-0.21 i386) and is a SLES11SP2 dom0 (Kernel 3.0.13-0.27-xen 64bit). The truth is that every tutorial I see it differently and I do not know where this error. When I start the domU, pvgrub shows the options but when I select the kenel-xen, returns the error "Boot loader did not return any

Hi XEN-Community, I''m trying to build the actual version of the XEN gplpv (win-pv) drivers. I use the a Windows XP machine with the WinDDK 7600.16385.1 and Wix 3.0 like suggested in the BUILD.txt The building process itself seems to be working, at least there are no compiler error. (I just made the "makedist") Instead, the final *.msi files and the drivers itself are nowhere

I saw some really bad things happening on our production servers. First dom0: Ubuntu xen1 2.6.24-24-xen Xen 3.4.0 compiled from source. I don''t remember exactly what GPLPV version was installed but I know for sure from early 10.x series. domU: Windows Server 2008 64-bit (Test mode enabled) Second dom0 has almost identical setup, thou on different hardware. When I start copying large

Hi all, This is my first post in the list. Nowadays I am starting with xen due a work task, for some of you my problem should be something very basic but for me it is taking long hours doing research on the issue and trying different things. What I have is a Xen image already built and what I want to do is just play it and make it accessible by the network. I can play it, that is not a problem at

I followed the book called "Professional Xen Virtualization" written by William von Hagen,and published by Wiley Publishing,Inc. Here are some configuration files: #cat /xen/ubuntu/ubuntu.xen3.cfg kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-128.1.16.el5xen" ramdisk = "/boot/initrd-2.6.18-128.1.16.el5xen-no-scsi.img" memory = "512" name = "Ubuntu804" vif =

virt-p2v was able to convert my centOS 5.2 physical machine to xen virtual machine and it runs great. Now, I am working on to convert this full virt machine to para virt . Under my domU i have installed kernel-xen (since it is needed ) , and edited my grub menu to use the installed kernel. My grub menu file in domU looks like: ---- kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-92.1.17.el5xen ro

First let me say that I'm not a sysadmin, but am simply wearing that hat this week so please excuse my ignorance. I need to temporarily move some virtual servers from a CentOS-KVM platform to a CentOS-XEN platform while I do some upgrades to the CentOS box. I've created a local LV, and used DD and SCP to transfer the block device from the VKM machine to the XEN machine. For quite a

Hi all, when I try to build an initial ramdisk with the option --with=xennet, I get the following error No module xennet found for kernel 2.6.18.8-xen I looked at the /lib/modules/2.6.18.8-xen/kernel/drivers/xen and there is no xennet module over there, which causes the problem. How can I get the xennet module? Thanks, Luca _______________________________________________ Xen-users

Hi there, After updating a server from CentOS 5.3 to 5.4 my Xen pci-passthru setup has some troubles. The server has two NICs, one used by dom0 and the other assigned to a domU and one SCSI controler assigned to another domU. It has been working fine since CentOS 5.1, when I did the initial setup. After upgrading to 5.4, I get this error when starting the domU with one of the NICs assigned:

Hello everyone, Recently I have been testing my customized Xen 4.2 networking setup. It works pretty good and I would like to share it with anyone who is interested. The relevant files can be found here: https://github.com/slacks42/xenscripts Benefit: configure the Xen related networking devices with one understandable bash script. Please note that this is all still work in progress. For

Hi, I have a set of 32bit HVM images running fine under Xen 3.2.1 and Xen 3.4.1. Due to performance issues with the fully virtualized setup, I would like to migrate one of those images to a paravirtualized image to compare the network performance. As I do not have a Xen-aware kernel for that VM, I thought the best would be to provide one from outside. Sounds like an easy task, doesn''t

Dear List-Colleagues: I have been working on installing Xen on Suse 10.3 for some time now. I am green as grass - both a total newbie to Xen and a relative newbie to Linux (as well as a total newbie to SuSE). Currently, I am at the point that when I click on the Xen entry in my grub loader I see Xen starting and running through much of its early setup. Eventually, however, it quits on

Removing xen kernels during conversion is tidier, but occasionally problematic. For example, if the kernel has dependent kmods which prevent its uninstallation, the code to remove it reliably across multiple versions of RHEL becomes tricky. The existing code doesn't handle this at all, and the conversion will fail in this case. As it isn't strictly necessary to remove xen kernels, this
