Has anyone had issues starting xen0 on a md? I have installed it a few times now w/ and w/o raid. Anytime I have a raid1 mirror, Xen panics on boot when trying to mount /. It gets past waiting for /dev/md0 to appear. John _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Hey, everyone, I''m having some issues with a Xen DomU right related to performance. We have an application that cross-compiles a Linux distribution from scratch for embedded systems. We''re attempting to run this application inside a Xen DomU (paravirtualized, modified guest kernel), and the performance is really bad. The culprit seems to be high I/O wait times related to the

Hello Anyone used Zebra routing daemon and created virtual routers before? Is it possible to run OSPF/BGP on each virtual server and get them to talk to each other? I''m new to Xen and I need to know... I will be trying this out in the coming days and I want to know about any pitfalls to avoid. -- Nonchalantly yours GobbledeGeek [Every thing but Gobbledegook.. !!]

Hello everyone, We are making extensive use of the homedrive mapping fields in AD. (automagically mapping a drive letter to a UNC path without a logon script) Since we sp2 applied to our clients, none of them have been able to map their home drives to our samba servers. According to Microsoft's q-article, http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;Q308580&, "this

So, a few days ago I asked about network/iSCSI booting XCP (dom0). Doesn''t seem like it''s something that very many people have done, since I didn''t get much response, so I decided to give it a shot myself. I was able to install a couple of CentOS 5 packages that help with network booting and get the system to boot off of NFS (can provide some more detail on that,

Hi all This is a strange one. On upgraging to SuSE kernel-2.6.11.4-21.7, I have suddenly found that I loose the video on boot up! The video disappears very early in boot, possibly while Xen hypervisor is starting, printing out the physical memory map. If you are patient and wait for the machine to reach run level 5, the X server starts up and you get a picture back. You can then switch back and

Hi, DomU is a Win2008 R2 64 When i install the GPLPV drivers the network latency goes from 15ms to random numbers up to 1200ms and eventually dies. If you run a ping from the DomU to another host the network stays alive but the high latency is still there. Further more if i try and uninstall the network driver i am unable to use the old one (realtek) as it cannot detect the device.

I build a DomU kernel on RHEL AS5.1. But when I boot this Guest DomU with the kernel, it gives me error message: Error: (2, ''Invalid kernel'', ''xc_dom_compat_check: guest type xen-3.0-x86_32 not supported by xen kernel, sorry\n'') Can someone give me any suggestion about this problem? Thank you! Joe _______________________________________________ Xen-users

I''m trying to contain my frustration...but I''m wondering if *anyone* has *ever* gotten the Import functionality to work in XCP? I''ve tried several times, and keep getting the same obnoxious and useless error that is absolutely no help to anyone: Failed to Import. I have made sure that the transfer VM is installed (View -> Show Hidden Objects, transfer VM is there),

In my experiments with setting up a NAS as a VM, I can only successfully import three drives; the root drive, the cd and one more. However, I have plenty that I want to use: disk=[''file:/vserver/vm_disks/Patch.disk.xm,hda,w'', ''phy:/dev/sda,ioemu:hdd,w'', ''phy:/dev/sdb,ioemu:hde,w'', ''phy:sdc,ioemu:hdf,w'',

Hi, folks, I''m attempting to run an e-mail server on Xen. The e-mail system is Novell GroupWise, and it serves about 250 users. The disk volume for the e-mail is on my SAN, and I''ve attached the FC LUN to my Xen host, then used the "phy:/dev..." method to forward the disk through to the domU. I''m running into an issue with high I/O wait on the box (~250%)

Well, I seem to have developed a strange issue with the GPL PV drivers in Windows. I''m running Xen 3.2 on SLES 10 SP2 and running some Windows XP HVM domUs. Most (12-15) of my Windows machines work just fine. Two of them, though, have started exhibiting a strange behavior with intermittent network connectivity. Basically, the network starts up and connects initially. After some

Hi, I am trying to (live-)migrate a paravirtualized machine from hosta to hostb: -----8<---- hosta:~ # xm list pvm Name ID Mem VCPUs State Time(s) pvm 64 384 1 -b---- 0.5 hostb:~ # xm list pvm Error: Domain ''pvm'' does not exist. hosta:~ # xm migrate pvm 192.168.0.2 Error:

I''m running xen on SLES10SP2. It''s been much more stable than SP1, but I still occasionally have issues. For example, one of my servers (8 CPU/32GB RAM) has five sles pv domUs and five fully virtualized windows 2k3 domUs. It had been up for almost 60 days. Yesterday afternoon one of the sles domU''s stopped responding. I went to check on it and I couldn''t using

Hey, everyone, I''m running Xen 3.2 (SLES10) and trying to get an OpenSolaris PV domU to run correctly. I''ve followed a couple of the instruction sets out on the Xen wiki and other folks blogs, but I''m running into an issue with the domU crashing. The OpenSolaris version is the latest development release - 5.11-0.128. The config looks like this:

This may be a better question for the Xen-Devel list, but I''ll start here... Does anyone know if there is any easy way to replace the gPXE ROM with a newer version in Xen? Also, anyone know if there are any plans to have some sort of option in the domU config file to specify a boot rom? Looks like qemu-dm has an "-option-rom" option - is there any way in Xen to make use of

Hi, I am trying to install openxencenter to control my VMs I followed the instructions but when I tried to start it I got:  File "window.py", line 44, in <module>     import gtkvnc ImportError: No module named gtkvnc does any one face this problem before. I tried to comment the import line and xencenter started but console tab is not working and it is lookoing for gtkvnc module.
