Morning chaps, From my understanding the puppet master must have a hostname of "puppet". Is this correct? I''d like to be able to call this box whatever I like. I think that I can do that within /etc/puppet/puppet.conf. -- John Maclean MSc (DIC) Enterprise Linux Systems Engineer -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet

I've set up a local webserver to store kickstart files for domUs. All parameters are respected apart from the network settings. DomU always gets DHCP. Can any one help to unwrap this one? Does one add hostname, ip, netmask and gateway values to the /etc/xen/blah.cfg file? # ---- domU kickstart file ----# url --url http://192.168.1.120/centos/5/os/i386 lang en_US.UTF-8 keyboard uk network

Am I right in thinking that the numbering of the versions are in synch with the gcc version that one is recommened to build with?

Chaps, Is cobbler overkill or is it simpler to set up a local repo and rsync it with a mirror? -- John Maclean 07739 171 531 MSc (DIC) Enterprise Linux Systems Engineer

Is there a recommended partitioning for dom0? Here''s what I have planned. /swap 2GB /boot 100MB (ext3) / 5GB (ext3) xenmachines LVM volume group for the remaining diskspace dom0 will install in 5GB / and each domU will have a swap and root logical volume in "xenmachines" Thank you, _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list

Well, we wanted to put an install on a USB key. Neither I nor the other admin was amused by the singing and dancing that the wiki offers - and just *why* is it that syslinux is broken? At any rate, I did some googling, and found <http://www.pendrivelinux.com/>, and I ran this installer. Ok, it has some bugs: a) I had several .isos, and it *insisted* on grabbing the first one,

Hello all, I know that the question: Is it possible to run quemu inside Xen domU or run Xen domain 0 on quemu have discussed earlier in this mail list. As far as I remember this is possible except such a configuration where kquemu acceleration is in use. But what about HVM-capable systems? Please tell me are there the same restrictions for the hvm-capable systems? Thank you! -- WBR,

I''ve installed a FC5 domU under RHEL5-beta2 dom0 with virt-manager. As the disk for domU I used: phy:/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol02,xvda,w In the domU I have partitions: /dev/xvda1 on / type ext3 (rw) /dev/xvda2 on /var type ext3 (rw) How do I access these partitions from dom0? For example if I take an LVM snapshot of LogVol02, how do I mount the / partition of the domU installed on

Hey all, This utility (from Qemu) might be useful to anyone who has multiple partitions on a file-backed VBD and wants occasionally to mount them in dom0. http://www.dad-answers.com/qemu/utilities/QEMU-HD-Mounter/lomount/ You can tell it what partition to mount out of the file and it sorts out the offsets, etc. by parsing the partition table. This allows you to get around the loop

Chaps, I finally have access to a VT enabled box. What would be the best way to get the most out of Xen and VT? A number of questions here. Bear with me. They may seem simple but all I did previously was get the source code, study it a bit, read the README and build from source. Now that I have a dual-core machine how does Xen know how to split resources for the instances? Does one give any

I try to install Slackware 13.1 but fails, process stop on boot process, nothing happen when I press ENTER or F2. I have choose "Generic Kernel 2.6.25 or later with virtio".

Hello, http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenBusDriver?highlight=%28xenbus%29 says that "XenBus provides a bus abstraction for paravirtualized drivers to communicate between domains. In practice, the bus is used for configuration negotiation, leaving most data transfer to be done via page flipping." What is the equivalent mechanism for fully-virtualized drivers in Xen (HVM running

I don''t know what has happened because know I can''t even get this guest booting.

Chaps, Do any of run Xen on a 2-core box that you built from source? If so did you build your own images? I''m curious as I''ve built images on a single-core node and they run --fine-- on that machine. However, as soon as they start on a two-core box they die. /var/log/xen/xend.log gives " VM <name_of_domain> restarting too fast (1.400056 seconds since the last

Hi chaps, host = laptop dom0 = debian testing domU = various problem = providing wireless to my domUs references = http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-5-manual/Virtualization-en-US/ch-virt-laptop-configurations.html That ref has been good so far in that a CentOS instance has got an IP with dummy0. host machine:- cat /etc/issue && cat /etc/network/interfaces Debian

domUloader potentially makes my life a lot easier, but from experiments and looking at the code, it doesn''t seem like there is any way to pass kernel command line arguments with it.

Thanks to Thomas Lumley for the very quick fix of the NextMethod(.Generic) bug. The patch enclosed in his message to r-help fixed that problem nicely. But..., I've got another one. x <- 1:4 attr(x,"foo") <- "bar" attributes(x < 4) returns NULL. The "foo" attribute has been lost in the "x < 4" operation. The blue book says that the

Hello all. I have a server with a linux software raid1 setup between two drives of the same model....one hard drive as primary ide master and second hard drive as secondary master. Now primary master hard drive is displaying a lot of SMART errors so I would like to remove it and replace with another drive....different brand but same size. Partitions are /dev/md0 till /dev/md5.
