Hi all, I want to check the status of resources of virtual machine, created using Xen. I have written a script, which checks the status of the virtual machines and does all the actions like, start, stop, status, monitor. so, I want to check the status of the resource of virtual machines. I have thought of it and have 3 ideas. I want your suggestions. 1. Since we will know the process id of

Virsh (the xm-like tool that comes with libvirt) uses .xml files to define and describe DomUs. xm uses simple configuration files to define and describe DomUs. Is there any interoperability between these two? Like can virsh take an xm DomU config file, or vice versa? Or is there a tool to translate between them? On a somewhat related note, can anyone tell me at a high level what is different

I am getting the following error with "xm list" on a x86_64 SLES10 Beta system running changeset 9435:11fee62328cc. I am able to bring up DomUs and I am able to do "xm info" without issues. But I am seeing similar "OverflowError: int exceeds XML-RPC limits" with "xm shutdown" and "xm destroy". My python version is 2.4.2. Any way I can get around

Hello everybody! I´d like to know where "xm top" gets its information from. I want to get those informations (cpu-load, mem etc. from the domUs) and display them with php in a browser. So are the informations stored and updated in a textfile or something like that? Can anybody help me with this? Regards Alexandros _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing

HVM = fully virtualized. The question is, why are you using fully virtualized domUs? Why not paravirtualized (PV)? >>> On 2008/06/16 at 16:07, Rudi Ahlers <Rudi@SoftDux.com> wrote: Itamar - IspBrasil wrote: > why you''re using hvm ? its slow > > > > Rudi Ahlers wrote: >> Hi all >> >> I''m running CentOS 5.1 x64 + Xen 3.0 & I

Hi list, I am running a virtualized server. Dom0 uses Xen 3.2.1 with Debian Etch and a custom kernel 2.6.21 created by my webhosting company. I install my domU using debootstrap for a Debian Etch with 2.6.18-6-xen-amd64 kernel. Everything works well except the fact that once the VM is started I cannot "xm console" into it. It only works while it is booting and while it is shutting

Hi Fellas, When I connect to a domain''s console via xm console vmid I have to press an enter to get the console prompt. I am wondering if anyone else has seen this and if there is a remedy for this?

Hello I have a production server, on which I had to install a new OS. Unfortunately, xen is not willing to run any domUs! Any help would be most highly appreciated. My problem is essentially that described in this post, to which there was no answer at the time: <http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2009-06/msg01147.html> Symptoms: When trying to xm create a previously

I hate intermittent problems ... Most of the time, my domUs launch just fine. But, occasionally I get a failure to connect a vdb or vif and the domU fails to completely launch ("xm list" shows it is present but no console activity either through "xm create -c" or through "xm console"). The log shows a stack trace in DevController.py in the area of waiting for

Hello everybody, I can successfully boot up my dom0, but I can''t create domUs. If I try to create one I get the following output from xm: root@revo:~# xm create /etc/xen/debian.cfg Using config file "/etc/xen/debian.cfg". Error: (22, ''Invalid argument'') There''s no more interesting information in syslog. Any ideas what is the problem? -- Regards,

What are methods to debug domU when it hangs? Using xen 3.1 compiled from sources I could not manage to launch no domU. Fot instance, I run something like this: =====8<===================== disk = [ ''file:/oradata-act/sles.disk,hda1,w'', '',hdc:cdrom,r'' ] kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-xen" ramdisk = "/boot/initrd-2.6.18-xen" cpus =

Hi, I tested unlikely operations about the xm reboot/shutdown command. As a result, I found the following problems. Problem 1: Can reboot/shutdown Domain-0 by mistake. # xm list Name ID Mem(MiB) VCPUs State Time(s) Domain-0 0 1024 2 r----- 31.0 # xm reboot 0 Error: Can''t specify Domain-0 # xm reboot 00 #

hi alll.. i want to find the xen domain''s state using xm domstate command, domstate command works fine inside virish but when i try with xm like [xm domestate VM_NAME] its giving an error saying subcomand domestate not found. i just want to shutoff the xen virtual domains using a scrip to take backup. so i just want to make sure that the domain are shutdown successfully after

These xm info, top, dmesg and log requre no parameter. But log''s error message differs from other 3 command''s error messages, when parameter is given. # xm log 1 Error: ''xm log'' requires 0 argument. log Print the xend log Other 3 commands ignore parameter. I think it might be better symmetricalize. Signed-off-by: Yoshinori

xend has a timeout such that if an ''xm shutdown'' request does not result in the domain shutting down within a certain time period, the domain is violently destroyed. This seems like a strange choice - if the domain isn''t responding properly to such requests, then it must be in a buggy state, and should surely be preserved for administrator action (dumping core,

Hello, I have some dom0 which have 8GB RAM, but when I look with xm list, it just shows me 6GB, I need to setup some new VM, each with 1GB, so I should have with 3VM still 5GB free, but im only seeing 3GB. Can I just create 2 new VM with each 1GB and still have 3GB for the dom0? #xm top xentop - 11:31:17 Xen 3.1.0-53.1.14.el5 4 domains: 1 running, 3 blocked, 0 paused, 0 crashed, 0 dying, 0

hi all, I can''t create domU with the virt-manager, but I''d like to use it anyway. If I start domUs from command line (xm create ~) I can see them in the virt-manager, but they''re gone after I pause them or stop them. I assume that the virt-manager has some place where it saves config files for domUs, on linux it is usually /etc/xen/vm. I went in some obvious places
