hi, I am trying to start a new domainU but got the error: Error: Device 0 (vif) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working I have struggled with it for a long time. I found somebody else report this but can not find a solution. The xen version is xen-3.0 latest version. I do not have a initrd. Domain0 works fine but when I create a new domain, it always gives an error as above. Thanks,

I''ve compiled xen-3.0.2-2 from sources. I''ve went to the end without errors.

Hi, I have been getting the following error (logged in /var/log/xen/xend.log) when I try to migrate a VM from one particular host to the other (the reverse migration works fine). My system was working fine for a long time (i did several migrations in both the directions). I am using Xen-3.4.3 (installed from source code) with CentOS 5.4. I am using drbd to replicate the disks.

Hi I''m using Xen on my AMD64 / Ubuntu 7.10 server which I recently upgraded, and my 2 VMs are decidedly flaky. They seem to be blocked for most of the time, and networking doesn''t work properly.

Hi, I got this error when starting a domU on Centos 5.1 i386, Device 0 (vif) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working. Why is this happening ? I should restart the machine to see if this still happends after a fresh network bridge. But it's somehow a production server, I would like not to restart it, if possible. No domU is currently running. I could start domUs a week ago.

Hi, I''m using a custom block script in my xen setup and when started, it creates a new device node pointing to some network resources. Now I noticed that the script is called twice for the root block, the first time for pygrub most likely, but is only stopped once ... I don''t mind creating two devices node, but then I need to destroy both ... Is this a known issue ? Cheers,

Hi Everyone, I''m trying to get Xen to use a native DRBD device but it seems it will not create the virtual machine. It does not seem to like the DRBD device type, any ideas on what might be wrong? I''m pretty sure my xen config file is OK and the DRBD device looks fine too. Full details below. xm create centostest Using config file "./centostest".

We''ve been noticing a lot of these errors when booting VMs since we moved to 3.0.3 - I''ve traced this to the hotplug scripts in Dom0 taking >10s to run to completion and specifically the vif-bridge script taking >=9s to plug the vif into the s/w bridge on occasion - was wondering if anyone has any insight into why it might take this long. I added some instrumentation to
