Hi, Is vfb working well lately? I thought I''d test it out on ia64 and it works great, but only once per boot. If I stop the domain and restart it, I get the following: Error: Device 0 (vkbd) is already connected. To make sure this isn''t an ia64 anomaly, I tried it on an x86_64 system. Same thing, works the first time, reboot the domain and it''s broken. I see

Hi, I have three Xen hosts running Xen 4.0.2 (OpenSuSE 11.4 based). I also have one ''NFS'' server with an NFS export holding VM images and configuration files. Each host has a dedicated LAN link directly to the NFS server. I have another separated NFS export for VM locking (but I had the same issues before). When I attempt to live migrate a VM, it *looks''*like

Hi folks I deploy a two Dell PowerEdge T300 to test Virtualization with kvm+drbd+heartbaet. The KVM drbd and heartbeat work properly. However, I have doubt!! When the primary node has down, the secondary node start the VM that has original running on primary node... So, this required a full stop of hole system... This is not we wish here... Is there something way to live migrate VM from

Hi, all. I am trying to figure out how split device drivers work in Xen. However, when I start a guest domain, I only see the following fields showing up in Xenstore: /local/domain/1/device/console/ ..... /local/domain/1/device/vbd/769/ ..... I didn''t see other /local/domain/1/device fields. Does it mean not all device drivers in Xen follow the split device driver model? (in other

I''m running SLES10 SP1 and have been using file:/ for my file-backed domUs. The domUs sit on a shared OCFS2 SAN-backed filesystem and are run on my three or four XEN servers. I''m having issues with the loopback devices not being released when the domUs shutdown or migrate, so I decided to switch over to tap:aio for my file-backed domUs. This isn''t working, either.

Hello all Xen devels, I''m writing howto''s in brazilian portuguese language about Xen-3.3.0 stubdom, pv-grub and others configurations. Following what is written in xen-3.3.0/stubdom/README, I tried start a HVM but without success. When I start the virtual machine calling ''xm create hvmtest'' command, in a few seconds the virtual machine is dead (see

Hello! I was asking for help on the Freenode channel, and I was pointed here. I have a situation where, using xl, I can create a functional PV domU, with or without pv-grub, but I cannot access the console. Firing up xend and using xm works without trouble. Since xend and company is being deprecated, I would like to transition to using the xl toolstack. The system is an Arch Linux system

Hello, We''re running Xen Unstable changeset 15468 with SLES10 on a Unisys ES7000/one 56x cpu and 160GB memory. Xen is built with NR_DYNIRQS=1024 and max_phys_cpus=64, and booted with dom0_mem=1024 and xenheap_megabytes=64. We have 320 para-virtualized SLES10 VMs on external storage. Our script starts a VM, waits for the start to complete, then starts the next: "for i in *.cfg;

I am trying to run a new server with centos + xen using centos xen packages. After installation, we had to install a hardware raid card (areca) on the machine, and thus reload the os. It so happens the drivers shipped aren''t compatible with xen kernel, so i was forced to compile xen from source to compile areca drivers. Now with system running under compiled xen, i cannot boot my old

Hi all, I''m having some problem migrating a simple domU between two hosts. Short question: xm migrate (live or not) fails even though either host is capable of running the VM. Error seems to be: "not a valid guest state file: pfn count read" Long question: I have two boxes (devvmdevvmhost1 and devvmhost2) running xen 3.0.3 (RHEL 5), they are attached to a Dell MD3000 unit

First let me say that I'm not a sysadmin, but am simply wearing that hat this week so please excuse my ignorance. I need to temporarily move some virtual servers from a CentOS-KVM platform to a CentOS-XEN platform while I do some upgrades to the CentOS box. I've created a local LV, and used DD and SCP to transfer the block device from the VKM machine to the XEN machine. For quite a

Hi Everyone, I''m trying to get Xen to use a native DRBD device but it seems it will not create the virtual machine. It does not seem to like the DRBD device type, any ideas on what might be wrong? I''m pretty sure my xen config file is OK and the DRBD device looks fine too. Full details below. xm create centostest Using config file "./centostest".

After a yum update my two guests that had been shutdown do not start any more. I have two other guests running that seem to work okay but I am now afraid that they won't come up again if I restart them. I am running CentOS5 with kernel 2.6.18-8.1.8.el5xen. Previously I had following xen versions installed: Oct 14 23:45:10 Updated: xen-libs.i386 3.0.3-25.0.4.el5 Oct 14 23:46:05 Updated:
