I am running Xen 3.3.0 and am trying to run a XenEnterprise image. The image has a hda directory with files called chunk-000000000.gz - chunk-000000042.gz and a filed called ova.xml with the following: <appliance version="0.1"> <vm name="VM"> <label> Manager </label> <shortdesc> </shortdesc> <config

I''m trying to install XenEnterprise with raid 1 for its OS drives but the installer doesn''t seem to have this ability. Is there some way to install it in raid 1? The reason I need this is in case the OS drive fails, the whole system doesn''t go down.

Hi Our system need to support Windows Guest OS,but we don't plan to buy new VT servers. I know xen 3.0 support Windows only on VT or Pacific processor.

Hi, Can anyone shed any light on how to install b66 as a DomU guest of a XenEnterprise 3.2 Dom0? Or is this currently an impossible task? I did try it out and the install goes through the initial boot sequence/menu but then bombs out when trying to access the virtual DVD drive containing the Solaris files with the "can''t find Windowing software" message, similar error with

Hello, I am trying to use Xen Enterprise (its free version). Until now I have no problem, but now I want to create a new virtual machine based in debian etch, not debian sarge (the debian version included in xen templates). So I am looking for a way to create my own template, but I haven''t found any documentation about that. Looking the files, I have found that templates are stored in

Based on some tests we ran, it seems the biggest performance hit you get from running within domU is from disk I/O. We did some mysql read and write tests, and for both, our performance is about half that compared to native. Has that been others'' experience? Is there any way to make this better? We are using physical partitions. In contrast, cpu/memory tests appear to be near

Obviously not a very fair comparison [1]. I can''t see how this was done well at all. VMWare are a bit silly to release stuff like this, just lowers the whole game.

I''m experiencing a problem with XenEnterprise migration for a Windows 2008 server VM where a large % of the time I notice a 45-50 sec delay after the VM has been migrated to the other side. I''m wondering if anyone in this list is using XenEnterprise and has tried W2k8 migrations. Thanks in advance. W2K8 online migration delays guest execution 45-50 seconds Posted: Mar

All, I installed Vista on Xen yesterday, but it no longer shows up on my Admin console. Disk space still shows 30G used by it. Also, how do I eject CDROM while Xen is running :) Thanks, Andrey _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Hi list, Once more a cry for help. It seems no-one is able to help here. Our virtual machine has crashed, and I simply haven''t got a clue how to repair this.

Is it possible to configure syslinux.cfg on a floppy to start Win98 on a secondary hard drive? If so, how is this done? Currently I have Linux and Win98 on the primary hard drive, and when I attempt to use the floppy to start Win98 on the second hard drive, I simply start Win98 on the first drive. I have tried many different approaches, all to no avail, and I would really appreciate some

Before, in my "Hard Problem" email I was trying to communicate a design issue were trying to solve with Xen. This is what we need to do: 1) Deploy 24 Windows XP VMs in parallel. 2) Boot them from a shared Windows XP C: drive. 3) Since this is a read-only shared image we obviously can''t have multiple VM''s writing to it. 4) All writes to the boot image for logging,

Hi, I had read on this thread - http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2006-03/msg00759.html - (which is about a year old) about a Xen book being written. Any updates or others currently writing books on Xen?

Hi, I''ve setup a Xen server host (suse, xen 3.0.2) with vlan as follows: server-eth0 <-> vlanXY <-> vbridgeXY <-> domU-eth0 That is: vlan''s are managed in the physical host (for better security). The setup is working, i.e. I can connect to/from domU-eth0 from hosts in the same vlan. The problem is: it seems I loose "many" packets.

Guys With the advent of Oracle''s foray into packaging their own flavour of linux are there any plans to incorporate OEL (Oracle Enterprise Linux) support into XenExpress/XenEnterprise/XenServer? Specifically vm creation/import/export etc..? Since OEL is based on Redhat I''m assuming this would be relatively trivial?? Thanks in Advance Mike.

Hi, We''ve been using xen with pc clones for some time now. But now the boss wants to get serious and start using real servers. We''ve been looking at HP. I got in touch with a couple of distributors for prices and much to my suprise, I''ve been told by one HP Partner that Xen does not run on HP hardware. (a ProLiant ML 150) He continued to tell me that he could offer me
