HVM = fully virtualized. The question is, why are you using fully virtualized domUs? Why not paravirtualized (PV)? >>> On 2008/06/16 at 16:07, Rudi Ahlers <Rudi@SoftDux.com> wrote: Itamar - IspBrasil wrote: > why you''re using hvm ? its slow > > > > Rudi Ahlers wrote: >> Hi all >> >> I''m running CentOS 5.1 x64 + Xen 3.0 & I

I normally try not to ask questions until I have done as much research as possible, and again, this is the case... Just after I thought I had my RH5 samba/nis server working fine, I come across the inability to update nis passwords. >From the server as root: passwd guest1 Changing password for user guest1. New UNIX password: Retype new UNIX password: NIS password could not be changed.

Hi Xen-users, I am trying to boot of my fist guest domain. The below attached message was thrown on the screen. I am not quite sure that the below information is sufficient to root cause the issue. Where do i look for additional logs to root cause the issue. Appreciate any info that you think might be useful. Thanks, Karthik xm create -c guest1.conf vmid=2 Using config file

Here's the problem. We perform full tar backups of our CentOS 4/5 machines in real-time at regular intervals. And when a disaster happens, we are able to restore those backups onto virgin filesystems, make the /dev/null, /dev/zero and /dev/console devices .. and boot the machine. This has worked well on standalone systems, and also on Xen 3.0.3 guests on CentOS 4.4 machines, where each guest

Hi there, I am using libvirt with lxc to create fedora 16 & 18 containers on fedora 18 host. first I did the setup with libvirt 1.0.3 and everything worked fine, then after upgrading to libvirt 1.0.4, I could not create character device on the guests : Test on the guest1 : # ls -l /dev total 0 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 10 Apr 17 21:18 console -> /dev/pts/0 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 11

Hello, As part of my project for my MSc, I am looking for a solution to implement nested virtual machines. My current scenario is: - I have a server with AMD Phenom II X6 1100T and 8GB RAM - virtualization enabled at BIOS. - I have installed 64bit CentOS-5.6 with Xen enabled (let''s call it as base1). - On top of base1 I have also installed 64bit CentOS-5.6 (guest1) with Xen enabled and

Hi guys, I''ve seen this post regarding "lvm resize" and this contains all the information I need to resize a disk inside domU : http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2006-11/msg00019.html >From this post: "With this I can extend the LVs in the Dom0, and either shutdown the DomU and resize2fs from Dom0 or even (tested on test VMs and low-use

hi, I''m new on this list and i need help from experienced users to give andswer for some questions. I sen up a dom0 (debian) and would like it to be very minimalist, just xen tools, some gnu utils and other usefull utilities. This dom0 will be used to virtualize many hvm OS like windows and some other *nix paravirtualized. Till there are no problem to view/connect to console of paravirt

Gang, ???? I run several KVM host machines.? Due to updates, maintenance, and unexpected reboots sometime host machines are restarted.? I can easily envision a scenario where HostX needs some critical packages updated or is acting up.? I migrate guest0, guest1, guest2 etc. from HostX to HostY.? Then, in either a planned (i.e. scheduled maintenance) or unplanned (i.e. unplanned reboot) event

HI all, Is it possible to install a virtual guest (FreeBSD and OpenBSD mainly) from kvm host's console? I have tried to do some search about this but I haven't found anything about it. My idea is to launch "virsh start guest1" and inmediately "virsh console guest1", but it doesn't works until serial console is configured inside guest .... Any tip? Thanks.

Hi, guys. I''m trying to use physical disks as virtual disks in HVM domains. But I couldn''t. I''m using cs10508 of xen-unstable.hg. When I use disk = [ ''phy:sda5,ioemu:hda,w'' ] in conf file, creating HVM domain says, I need to use ''file'' modifier if I use ''ioemu''. So, I changed it to disk = [

Greetings - I am going through some testing steps to expand a logical volume and the corresponding filesystem on a KVM guest and have run across a deficiency in my knowledge. I spent the afternoon yesterday googling for answers, but had have come up blank still. What I am trying to do is resize the file system to use the additional disk space that I added to the logical volume that the

Hi there, Last night I was trying to start a HVM domU via stubdom-dm device model. Initially I did not receive any error to stdout when I did so with Xen-3.4.2. My Xen-3.4.2 installation works fine with qemu-dm (or regular HVM guests). The stubdom-dm guest I was trying to create did not really operate as I was unable to connect to the VNC console. The output of xm list showed the DomU was there,

Hi Rich, We just talked about a new tool virt-diff which can diff files between two guest, suggested by Kamezawa Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu at jp.fujitsu.com> things like below, # virt-diff -Nru --guest=Guest0 --guest=Guest1 /etc/hosts Any thought about this? Another question, what do you think about implement iptables, firewall, yum, rpm, etc into libguestfs? Thanks, Wanlong Gao

Hello folks, i do not get access to a physical disk with xen. I would like to install windows xp as hvm to the physical partition /dev/sdb1. I partioned the disk with cfdisk. Filesystem type is Linux (83). In my eyes the filesystem using hvm is insignificant(?). I tried the following configurations; probably a lot more than this. #disk = [ ''phy:hda1,hda1,r'' ] (comment from

I realized this is probably better suited for the devel list.. basically, is there any way in the BOCHS bios to enable ''Serial Console Redirection'', where you see the BIOS contents over the serial line? Windows 2003''s ''Emergency Management Services'' console (which allows you to do installs and fix stuff over the serial line) requires this to
