similar to: Xen and QNX

I''m fairly new to both Xen and Linux, my boss wants me to try and get Xen working on a new dual core running both Windows and QNX (we need to do some real time processing). Ideally he wants Windows to be a host (although from what I have read this isn''t possible yet?) and QNX as a guest. I''m guessing a Linux Dom0 will be needed and then the others run as guests. Does

Package: xen-hypervisor-3.0.3-1-amd64 Version: 3.0.3-0-2 Severity: important On a machine with 2 dual-core Opterons and 16GB of memory, only about 3GB is detected by the hypervisor.

Hello, I have an odd problem on a dual processor, dual core Opteron system. Obviosously it is x86_64 so should have no problem with large amounts of RAM. The system has 4 GB installed (2GB on each processor). If I boot the system with a fresh install of Debian Etch it sees all the memory fine. dmesg reports: Memory: 4107008k/5242880k available (1929k kernel code, 86836k reserved, 864k data, 176k

Hello, I originally posted this to xen-users, but someone suggested I post it here. I am having ACPI problems on a PenguinComputing Altus1600 system. It has 2x dual core Opteron 2210 processors. The system boots with a standard Debian or Ubuntu SMP kernel, with ACPI enabled. However the xen live cd, binary xen install, as well as my own custom compile of xen 3.0.4 from source will not boot.

Hi, I noticed the earlier thread on this started by Scott Koranda (sorry - was reading off gmane so I can''t reply to thread) I have exactly the same symptoms: machine hangs as soon as I attempt to start a single domU, just after emitting "using config file..." At that point the machine appears completely wedged. The sequence of 3 ^A on the console no longer does

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone had tried running a real-time OS e.g. QNX under Xen and if so what the performance of the real time OS was like.

Hi list, I've recently managed to install CentOS 4.4 on an Apple Mac Pro. Functionality-wise everything works great, but when trying to benchmark the system, I don't get stable runtimes, they differ by more than 30%. For example a benchmark run with our PDE solving code takes between 500 and 800 s on the completely unloaded machine. Suspicious kernel output (complete output attached):

Hello list, I just got this ominous bug on my machine, that has already been seen several times: http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2006-01/msg00180.html The machine is very similar, it''s a machine with two dual-core opterons, running one of the latest xen-3.0.3-unstable (20060926 hypervisor, and a vanilla 2.6.18 + xen patch from Fedora from 20060915). This machine was

Hi, Updated to current bk today, and my machine stopped booting ... I''ve tracked it down to the apic changes from end of last week. cset 1.1307 boots fine, 1.1308 doesn''t.

Hi, we are currently working on getting windows working on your xen servers. but we are facing a severe problem where dom0 and all domus hang for 1-5 seconds from time to time. we think it is probably because of disk i/o, because top sometimes says 100% wa (waiting on io) during the hang. dom0 has cpu 0 for exclusive use and the windows vms use cpu 1 to 7. should we give dom0 more than once

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi list, I have an IBM xseries 345, running CentOS 5.3, hosting a few Xen domUs. However, I need more RAM -- but cannot remember if all (four) RAM sockets are populated (which would mean to buy higher capacity modules) or if there are two slots left to use. However, I'd like (and think that it's possible, but don't remember how) to

Hi All, I want to draw samples (n=4) from one of 2 triangular distributions for each value in a matrix. I am using an ifelse statement to try to define which distribution to draw from. >From the output, I can see that the ifelse statement is choosing the correct distribution, however, my n=4 simulations aren't occurring. Is there a way to adjust the ifelse statement to fix this, or must

It seems that VCPU system time isn''t monotonic (using 3.0.4). It seems it might be correlated to when a VCPU is switched across real CPUs but I haven''t conclusively proved that. But e.g.: { old = { time = { version = 0x4ec pad0 = 0xe8e0 tsc_timestamp = 0x22cc8398b7194 system_time =

I''ve had domU''s hickup a few times with latest unstable, and I guess this can be expected. Is there a procedure in place to report these problems?

I'm recording TCP network throughput performance between Dom0 IP stack and all my guest domains (currently 6 running simultaneously). All guests are running simultaneously, but I only ever transmit between Dom0 and one of the DomUs while the other five are idle. When running a netperf TCP_STREAM test (netperf on Dom0, netserver on DomU) I record the following performance numbers, CPU % as

Hello! I am encountering a problem with one of the machines I am using and the timer going backwards. It looks like the problem is due to to a bad PM-Timer entry being found. Though when debugging further, the real source of the problem stems from an ACPI table of type DSDT being parsed as an FADT during boot and certainly a bogus PM-Timer is found there. Here''s the output from

Hi, Thanks to everyone involved in the Xen project. I think it is great and can''t wait to get my hands dirty with it. In the meantime, I cannot boot Dom0 on an ibm x335 and I am not sure what the problem is. Any insights are welcome.
