Hi List, I have a server with two QuadCore 2.93Ghz processors and 16GB Ram, running Debian etch and Xen 3.2-1. Until yesterday I had in this server 2 hvm virtual machines, running w2k, 4 vcpus each without any problem, the use of each virtual machine rarely reach 70%. Today I cloned one of the virtual machines and started they with 2 vcpus, right after I start this new guest the use of cpus

Hi, I tried to boot both Minix 2.0.4 and Minix 3.1.2 on a XEN HVM DomU. In both cases the system will not boot. The last messages which appears on the screen is Hit a key as follows: 1 Regular Minix 3 ... 2 Small Minix 3 ... I used the following configuration. kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader" builder=''hvm'' memory = 128 name = "Minix"

Hello everybody For network simulation purposes I am trying to run a Linux image with a PAX enabled grsec kernel on a Gentoo xen-3.1.1 with HVM. While the image boots flawlessly on real hardware the kernel does not really like the fully virtualized Xen/Qemu environment. It does not succeed to boot (for dmesg see attachment). I first tried with the grsec- patched 2.6.14.6 sources but it

Hi all, we are running two servers with Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Server with Xen 3.2 and two dual-core CPUs: processor : {0-3} vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 15 model : 65 model name : Dual-Core AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 2218 HE stepping : 3 cpu MHz : 2613.394 cache size : 1024 KB physical id : 0 siblings : 1 core id : 0 cpu cores : 1 fpu :

Hi, I am using Xen 4 under Debian Squeeze. I want to use Windows 2008 x86 with HVM, but only one vcpu allocated when vm started. After increasing vcpus number (vcpus = ''4'') in cfg, at start ignored that parameter, xm list VCPUs show only 1. Why does not able to increase the vcpus? Any idea?:) p.s: if using pvm linux, then the vcpus parameter is ok, increased successfully when I

Hi all, I''m using ThinkPad T60, with xen3.1.0, windows could be installed into a file based virtual disk. however, when I tried to use a physical disk, I got this err msg: HVMAssist BIOS, 1 cpu $Revision: 1.138 $ $Date: 2005/05/07 15:55:26 $ ata0 master: QEMU HARDDISK ATA-7 Hard-Disk (0 MBytes) ata0 slave: UnKnown device Booting from Hard Disk...

I have a self built system using an Intel D 920 processor and a MB that supports VT. I''m able to run HVM domains fine, but have trouble getting multiple VCPUs for these domains. Here is an example of one of my configs. # -*- mode: python; -*- #============================================================================ # Python configuration setup for ''xm create''. #

Hi All, I just started using Xen a few days ago on Ubuntu Feisty Server. Did a binary install of 3.1 and within very little time had 2 windows 2000 domUs up and running. This made me very happy until I realized I was unable to access dom0 or either of the domU''s from the network. The domUs can access the network if they initiate the connection. After attempting to ping dom0 or domU from

Hello, I was testing Fedora 16 (rc2) Xen host, with included Xen 4.1.1 rpms and Linux 3.1.0 dom0 kernel. Fedora 16 PV domUs seem to work nicely. I noticed a problem with Fedora 16 Xen HVM guests though. The F16 guest kernel (Linux 3.1.0) fails with the qemu-dm emulated DVD-ROM drive.. Full HVM guest kernel dmesg attached to this email. See the end of this email for Xen cfgfile for the

Hi, i want to start domain with 2 cpus avail, but also have the opportunity to change on-the-fly the number of cpus to, for example, 4. in my domain.cfg i have: vcpus = 2 vcpu_avail = 7 The domain starts with 2 cpus, as expected, but rising the number does not work. It silently fails. Lowering the number works as expected. $ xm vcpu-set domain 3 $ xm list Name

Hi, I know it''s a problem that has already been discussed, but as I didn''t see any solution, I''m asking... We''ve been trying to use Xen 3.0.3 HVM mode with windows or linux in the past few weeks, and have been suffering from bad network performance. First, I must say that we didn''t succed to setup Windows 2000/2003 directly using  Xen, we had to

Hello community! I need help with a problem I haven''t been solved with the network team. I manage a network that has over a thousand computers, and the most of the servers are virtualized over Debian / Xen by me. The specific issue arises when I try to set up a DomU HVM running Debian Squeeze, the VM doesn''''t recognize the network but it runs. It gives an error

Hello, I am running two dom0s, one on CentOS 5 with Xen 4.1.2 (from Gitco) and the other one on CentOS 6 with Xen 4.2.4 (from Xen4CentOS). I host one LVM based domU on both from the same template (CentOS 6 PV) with the same Xen config (see below). However, the domU on Xen 4.1 reports itself as Xen PV while the domU on Xen4CentOS reports itself as Xen HVM. == First domU == virt-what and cPanel

All, Attached is a simple patch to fix the VNC server in the qemu device model after an HVM save/restore/migrate, if you don''t have a vncpasswd specified. The basic problem was that the "image" section of the sxp had a "None" in it, which means that on the restore (either on the local machine or remote machine), the vnc server in the qemu device model literally

Package: xen-hypervisor-3.2-1-amd64 Version: 3.2.1-2 Severity: normal I have a dual-core host. I wanted to give one of my guests use of 2 vcpus and use of both real cpus. I had the following in my config file for the guest: vcpus = 2 cpus = 0,1 This appeared to work correctly and I saw a big difference in the load average (the guest is monitored by munin-node). However after 12 hours or so,

Hi I am trying to install Windows using HVM but I get an error message that is totally useless and I am unable to figure out what the problem is. I just pulled xen-unstable.hg because nothing else supports my CPU yet. So here is what I get when I simply try to create the domain: [2008-05-28 13:55:26 16515] DEBUG (__init_s:1072) XendDomainInfo.create([''vm'',

I am trying to run a VM on Ubuntu 12.04 which in turn is guest on Fedora 18 host. I am using qemu, kvm and libvirt. I tried to run the following command: virt-install --name dsl --ram 1024 --vcpus 2 --cdrom /home/peeyush/Downloads/some_iso_file.iso --disk path=/path_to_disk My machine here runs with only one vcpu. While when I tried the exact same thing on my Fedora 18 host, it shows two cpus.

Hi all, I''m stuck with a peculiar problem. I have CentOS 5.5 and Xen. I have numerous Windows 2003 guests and never had this problem. An application requires SQL server 2008 which is requiring Windows Server 2008. I downloaded the 2.8 Gig install DVD ISO. I create a new guest and connect the ISO as hdc. The system starts and says "Starting Windows" but hangs and no
