similar to: Converting XenEnterprise image to XenSource

Hi, Our group would really like to use XenSource to run a very large number of parallel Windows XP VMs, but there are several issues we need to overcome or else we''ll have to use ESX instead. This is pretty high priority so if there is a high-level tech at XenSource who knows how to solve this, we would be really grateful. (1) We want to start-up using a post-boot save of Windows XP

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. Does XenEnterprise support Windows only on VT or Pacific processor? Thanks.

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

Lets say you had 4 servers and you wanted to setup replicate and distribute. What methoid would be better: server sdb1 xen0 brick0 xen1 mirror0 xen2 brick1 xen3 mirror1 replicate block0 - brick0 mirror0 replicate block1 - brick1 mirror1 distribute unify - block0 block1 or server sdb1 sdb2 xen0 brick0 mirror3 xen1 brick1 mirror0 xen2 brick2 mirror1 xen3 brick3 mirror2 replicate block0 -

Supermicro X7DWN+, XEON 5410, Centos 5.2, Xen 3.2.1 At what looks like random times network traffic over xen bridge stops working, the only way I found to fix it is a reboot. This sometimes takes 10 min, other times it may be up for 10 days. This happened with default xen that comes with RedHat EL 5.2 as well as a default install of Fedora 8. Any ideas? ><> Nathan Stratton

I have 6 boxes with a client config (see below) across 6 boxes. I am using distribute across 3 replicate pairs. Since I am running xen I need to disable-direct-io and that slows things down quite a bit. My thought was to move the replicate / distribute to the backend server config so that self heal can happen on faster backend rather then frontend client with disable-direct-io. Does this

Trying to get Xen working with Gluster. I understand you need --disable-direct-io-mode, however that cuts my disk I/O from 130 MB/s to only 22 MB/s. Also when I try to use xen with tap:aio, but only get to Creating root device. Red Hat nash version 5.1.19.6 starting Mounting proc filesystem Mounting sysfs filesystem Creating /dev Creating initial device nodes Setting up hotplug. Creating

So I have a problem, I have learned that GlusterFS 2.0.8 will not self heal on open files. This would not be a huge problem, except I am running xen and my files are basically always open. I have been running things for about a week now and I am concerned that when I have a crash I could lose all the new data. Is there a way to see what node GlusterFS is using for a open file and is there a

Xen/MCE: vMCE injection In our test for win8 guest mce, we find a bug that no matter what SRAO/SRAR error xen inject to win8 guest, it always reboot. The root cause is, current Xen vMCE logic inject vMCE# only to vcpu0, this is not correct for Intel MCE (Under Intel arch, h/w generate MCE# to all CPUs). This patch fix vMCE injection bug, injecting vMCE# to all vcpus. Signed-off-by: Liu,

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

Enable cpufreq support in Xen for AMD Operton processors by: 1) Allowing the PowerNow! driver in dom0 to write to the PowerNow! MSRs. 2) Adding the cpufreq notifier chain to time-xen.c in dom0. On a frequency change, a platform hypercall is performed to scale the frequency multiplier in the hypervisor. 3) Adding a platform hypercall to the hypervisor the scale the frequency multiplier and reset

Hello, What is for you the best GlusterFS scenario in using XenServer (i'm not talking about Xen on a linux but XenServer baremetal) for a web farm (Apache-Tomcat) ? I were thinking of using ZFS as the filesystem for the different nodes. The objectives/needs : * A storage cluster with the capacity equal to at least 1 node(assuming all nodes are the same). * being able to lose/take down any

Hi, I wondered why the pages on the Wiki are immutable?? The page http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenStoreReference contains an errorneous Python example and I want to correct it. Does anybody have access to the Wiki? (and yes, I just created an account) Cheers Andreas _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com

Good day. I trying to look to source code for sbin/loader in /opt/xensource/packages/files/guest-installer/el5.4-initrd-additions.cpio but unable to find it on source-1.iso. (May be I just search in wrong places). Where it source can be found? _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

I''ve just been playing with XenSource and Kronos packages, but the fast cloning ability from XenServer doesn''t appear to be available. Where does this come from exactly, is it something built into Xen or is there a component of XenServer that''s needed to handle it? I was hoping to use Xen on Debian with my web app controlling it using either XAPI or Libvirt, but I

Maybe there's a way to get an exception here. Other distributions should also be contacted to coordinate and seek help.
