Hi all! I have recently installed samba-3.0.2a-1 on my RedHat 9.0, Kernel 2.4.20-8 box. The box has a 300GB RAID5 array, 4GB of memory, and dual 2.4Ghz P4 processors with hyper threading enabled. When I copy a massive amount of files (~50GB) to the Samba server from a Windows 2K client, somewhere during that process (seemingly around 2 hours into the copy each time), my Linux box COMPLETELY

Hello I''m a newbie here so please don''t laugh at me... I plan to setup several (4) physical servers to run xen virtualized OS-es (in example web servers). What I need is that those virtualized OS-es must have simultaneous access to disk storage physically created on FC array. I read that this could be done by OCFS or Lustre file system but my question is: how virtualized

So. I understand this isn''t properly a xen question, although it is something that I am encountering rather /because/ of setting up xen. I''ve successfully compiled a domU kernel and laid it over a rhel4u4 os installed into an image file. One of the things that happens during boot is that redhat doesn''t find the right subdirectory for the domU kernel version in

Is problem with CPU load solved? I have same problem - dovecot-auth eats one of my cores. I'm using dovecot 1.0.7 on Solaris 10 Sparc. I tried to use auth-bind and standard scheme with separate user for bind and have same result. Problem occupts only with LDAP authentication, on some other systems I use PostgreQSL and MySQL authentication and doesn't have this problem. Using PAM

I have a centos 5.6 server that has xen domUs installed on their on logical volumes. These logical volumes contain their own volume groups and again their own logical volumes. I want to access the domU logical volumes and tried this: [root at kr ~]# fdisk -l /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol02 Disk /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol02: 274.8 GB, 274877906944 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 33418 cylinders Units =

Hi! Is there any experience of converting vmware''s vmdk file to a domU image? Maybe via extracting vmdk (how?) -> build tar -> untar in domU? That would be very nice despite replacing the original kernel with a self-built one and worthy to write a script... :) Cheers, Sven. _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com

Hello. I hope someone out there can help with this. It is getting pretty urgent. I am running a Solaris 10 server on Opteron (amd64) hardware and have compiled Dovecot 1.0beta8 from source. It has openssl compiled in (after much mucking around with various environment variables and modifying the Makefile), and was built with: $ ./configure --with-ldap --with-ssl-dir=/etc/ssl $ make # make

Hi all, Can Xen hypervisor modify HVM domU's Shadow page table, under the dom0's context, like trapped from dom0's hypercall? I think it have to call 2 functions at least: guest_walk_tables() and flush_tlb_all(). Can these 2 functions called in dom0's context? In my test, if hypervisor tries to modify HVM's shadow page table, it will bring down the whole system. I am not

Hi all. I''ve got a domU that exists in a sparse file image, I''d like to now use this on a physical partition (loopback performance issues). Is there an a easy way to do this ? Thanks Stuart _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

I have a Windows 2000 domU running in an LVM partition. I need to move it to another host, but none of my other xen servers have lvm or free space to create an lvm. So I''d like to convert it to a sparse img file. The file system in the domU is ntfs. Can anyone suggest how to do this? Thanks, James _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list

Hi, Has anyone tried upgrading xen domu's from 5.2 to 5.3? I just did a yum upgrade glibc & yum upgrade yum. All appeared to go well but when I rebooted and tried to connect to the network, I could not. Looking at /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts I see that the that there is now an ifcfg-eth0 and an ifcfg-eth0.bak. ifcfg-eth0 now contains configuration for a dynamically configured

Hi All it is possible to tune dom0/domU for better IO/network performance? Since I have changed to Cenots7 dom0, I have a really poor IO performance inside a PV VM. I have already done what is described on http://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Tuning_Xen_for_Performance It is better now but still significantly worse than with centos6 dom0 my settings: xen parameter: dom0_mem=1024M cpufreq=xen

I was using yum to update packages a few nights ago on one of my servers. The update of rpm packages appeared to die. Since then, commands like 'yum check-update' will consume the system. This is a dual-core Pentium-D, with X64 (and I'm running 64 bit). One CPU pegs at 100% running yum, but whatever it's doing on disk really is the bigger issue. It so consumes the disk

Hello, I did a security-update for lenny a kernel on my dom0. And I rebooted one of the domU's (not sure if that's related). Now I have a problem with the time in the domU's. The time does not change anymore. The time is different in the different domU's. I don't use an independent_wallclock, so the time should be the same on the dom0 and the domU's. In the dom0 there is

Hi, is anybody running asterisk on a xen domU and can give an opinion on the following: I have delegated a FritzCard and a HFC card to my domU and installed an asterisk setup that was running on the same isdn hardware but on a dedicated machine flawlessly. I experienced what I believed to be timing problems: sometimes calls on the Fritzcard did not seem to "reach" asterisk, when

I have the following script that when executed, consumes memory and makes the system inaccessible. All process are halted. First, I don't understand what is wrong with the script Secondly, I'm surprised that Linux allows this to run unchecked to the detriment of the entire system. ---- SCRIPT ----- #!/bin/sh FTP="/usr/bin/ftp" # VMID="asystem.ourcompany.com"

Hi, I'm wondering about the impact of using both dom0 and domU's on a server at the same time. I'm worried about the performance impact of running a Mysql server in a domU and now I'm thinking about moving the Mysql part of a LAMP setup into dom0 and running a few Apache guests as domUs. Since the Apaches will serve mostly from an NFS share they won't have much impact on
