similar to: qcow-create buffer overflow?

hi all. i know that most of u are unix users, and some hate to speak of windows here. but i found a good realtime speed meter. this the link. http://www.google.com/url?sa=U&start=1&q=http://www.trogdor-aln.com/Utilities/index.php&e=10129 thanks.

Hi, I want to ask if anyone of you is familiar with QCOW and has used this with xen? I''ve googled a bit about and could''nt really find out if it''s a good choice or not. Has anyone experience with usage in xen and can say something about performance and snapshot usability? Thanks in advance, Alex _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing

I have been messing with QCOW on Xen and I''ve come to the conclusion that nobody actually uses it otherwise it would work. Has anyone gotten QCOW2 and Xen to work reliably? I have 40 PV VMs that are identical (initially) and would like to move from separate disk images to one base image sitting in a ramdisk and the COW images hosted on an iSCSI storage device. The VMs would boot off the

Hi, i would like to use qcow2-sparse-images which point to a backup-file. After reading this: http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/DmUserspace i figured out that this feature seems to be unsupported by the ubuntu 8.04 LTS kernel and xen-3.2.1. Is this a ubuntu-specific problem, or is it solved in Suse, Red Hat, XenSource, whatever? When i try to block-attach it, xm displays no error, but the

I''m trying to create a pv guest with qcow/qcow2 disk image by xl, it always fails atlibxl_device_disk_local_attach. #xl create pv_config_file libxl: error: libxl.c:1119:libxl_device_disk_local_attach: cannot locally attach a qdisk image if the format is not raw libxl: error: libxl_create.c:467:do_domain_create: failed to run bootloader: -3 Does that mean we cannot create such a pv guest

Hello xen-users, I am trying to access a guest disk that was created using qcow-create from dom0 using xl block-attach/block-detach, which appears to be the current "Xen way" of doing it. However, after the following command, no /dev/xvdb is appearing: $ xl block-attach 0 tap:qcow2:/home/root/images/test.img xvdb I am using Xen 4.1.2 (installed from source tarball) with an Ubuntu

Hi, Trying to understand the current state of affairs with QCOW support in Xen with the blktap driver. It''s been made clear that a deviation from QEMU''s implementation of QCOW has occurred and that the QCOW files used in Xen must be created with the associated Xen tools only (e.g. qcow-create) and that images between QEMU and Xen are not interchangeable. My first question is

I am using a sparse image with a backed file. Using a dd inside domU the performance doesn''t exceed 3.0MB/s. If I try this on an NFS mount the performance (in an uninitialized qcow image) is below 1.0MB/s. Is this as expected? Are there currently any improvements in the Xen 3.3 hg repo that increase speed in the blktap backend? Stefan _______________________________________________

Hello, This is a second post, with a trial which is different from the first one , in order to solve my blcok-attach problem. I tried the following two actions, according to the blktap readme: qcow-create 1000 qcowFile.img Creating file size 1048576000 Created cksum: 1813725440 then xm block-attach 0 tap:qcow:qcowFile.img /dev/xvda1 w 0 I see in the /var/log/xen/xend.log: [2007-03-13

I''ve a problem with the syntax of qcow images on HVM guest. In my configuration file i''ve this string disk = [''tap:aio:/mnt/qcowwin,hda1,w''] Is it correct??? Windows installation cannot find the harddisk to proceed os installation... _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com

I've been able to mount this image with qemu-nbd on Fedora 15 with: mkdir pb.test cd pb.test wget http://www.pixelbeat.org/guestfs/annoying.qcow2.gz wget http://www.pixelbeat.org/guestfs/77de68daecd823babbb58edb1c8e14d7106e83bb_sm.gz gzip -d *.gz mkdir -p /var/lib/nova/instances/_base/ mv 77* /var/lib/nova/instances/_base/ modprobe nbd qemu-nbd -c /dev/nbd1 annoying.qcow2 mkdir t mount

hi guys, anybody observed, maybe has measured performance difference between the two with qemu quests(windows OS)? Any conclusions, recommendations? many thanks, L.

All, is it possible to create a new KVM machine from an existing qcow (v3) image with snapshots? snapshot-list doesn't show them, when using virt-manager 1:1.5.1-0ubuntu1.1 to create the machine. * t-ad5.img: QEMU QCOW Image (v3), 42949672960 bytes chris@cd:/data/md0$ qemu-img snapshot -l t-ad5.img Snapshot list: ID TAG VM SIZE DATE VM CLOCK 1

I have a qcow file It shows correct size on one server Fdisk -l w.qcow 70 GB On the other server Fdisk w.qcow 0 MB stupid

Hi,guys, During a HVM''s running which take a qcow format image file as its own virtual disk, the qcow image file will be always read.In the situation that its qcow format image is based on a raw format image, if nesethe backingfile ,just that raw format image file,would be read .my purpose is to cache the data that is read from the backingfile when the hvm is running . Now what I concern

Hi guys, I had to move to the new laptop week ago and I screw migration of my virtual machines. I recovered my virtual machines on the new laptop (virsh define) using the backed up xml files, but I am missing any file with metadata about snapshots. The original storage is cleaned so I cannot take these files anymore. Using qemu-info I can see my snapshots inside the qcow images, but libvirt

Dear,Beg for your help. I am really puzzled with this problem.HVM domain can not boot up with Qcow incremental image(using command: qcow-create size incremental_file original_Qcow_img_file), but it can boot up with the original Qcow disk image file. When using Qcow incremental image, the guest qemu window would disappear before loading grub, and `xm list` can not find this guest domain.The VM

The Fedora Extras update of R found its way onto my systems today and I noted that fix() and edit() no longer work. There is a program crash that closes up R, but it does not leave a core file. I've tested by turning off SELinux, it had no effect. Do you see it too? What do you think? It happens on both systems I've tested. As far as I know, both of these systems are up-to-date. I
