Hi, I am facing issues in bring RHEL 5 guest installation. Actually I am trying to perform installation from the exported virtual disks having RHEL5 ISO image, but during installation it fails saying "Unable to find any device of the type needed for this installation". I also tried installation with cd-drive containing RHEL5 iso image exported to the VM, still it fails. Kindly

Hi I have configured few VMs with RHEL5,32 bit, but some VMs after successful stop/restart few times, suddenly they start giving following error from "xm create vm1.cfg" startup. ---- Error: (''c618d493-a696-7637-333d-bd891fa41ac2'', ''VM_metrics'') ---- If i replace system.img, they starts working again. This is what i see in xend.log file. This happens

Hi, I run into problems with the ipaddress fact using the latest Facter gem (1.6.4, 1.6.5) on SLES11. The versions and gems I use work perfectly fine on SLES10 SP3. The problem: running "facter" without arguments results in an error, even though the erroring fact "ipaddress" is ok. test:~ # cat /etc/SuSE-release SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (x86_64) VERSION = 11 PATCHLEVEL

I attempted to install Ubuntu 10.04 as a domU on my CentOS dom0. The process I used was: wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/xen/xm-debian.cfg Edited the config file to use the proper logical volume for its install, and stepped through the install, installed GRUB to the MBR, and all seemed well. However, upon xm create -c NAME

I am running Xen 3.0 (64bit) on CentOS 5.3, and I want to install Ubuntu 10.04 using the steps below: 1. Create a new disk with LVM 2. Downlaod vmlinuz & initrd.gz from http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/xen/ 3. /usr/sbin/xm create -c /etc/xen/ubuntu.cfg install=true 4. Format the whole disk as EXT3, mount as / 5. The installer show some

I am having issues with guest OSes running on SLES10 (Sun 4200) hosts. Periodically, the guest OS system drops off the network. From the general network it is not pingable, consequently, ssh fails. If however, I log into the SLES10 server that is hosting the guest OS and ssh to the guest OS, then it becomes immediately pingable and accessible to the rest of the network. Almost like the

Hi, in SLES10 YaST insists in "xorg-x11" being installed, even if the display is redirected to a remote host. So I thought: Can''t I do it simpler? I''m still new to XEN, but I started like this: mount the SLES10 DVD to /mnt, and use this configuration file: ----- disk = [ ''phy:/dev/system/as1,hda,w'', ''phy:/dev/hda,hdb,r'' ] memory

Hi, I was wondering whether it is technically possible to go back from eg. DOS or Linux directly to the bootloader (instead of rebooting the hardware). We currently have 2 images (one DOS and one Linux) that need to be started before loading a system. They do things like disable PXE on NICs (using an Intel DOS tool), verify the correctness of the network patchings and validate if the

I'm trying to mount a ocfs2 volume (created on sles11) on my sles10sp2 server. I created the volume with these options: "mkfs.ocfs2 -C 128k -L CLUFS -M cluster -N 16 /dev/sdc". (dev/sdc is an iscsi device). It works to mount the volume with "mount.ocfs2 /dev/sdc /ocfs2" on my boxes (with o2cb configured for both nodes). When creating files on the ocfs2 volume I cant see

So we are trying to use async_storeconfigs. It seems when I get it all up and running the hosts.ip for an agent gets its hosts.ip entry in the DB set to the puppetmaster that it got its catalog from instead of its own IP. If I turn async_storeconfigs off and re-run puppet agent on the node that had its IP updated incorrectly it then updates back to the correct IP. I am using puppet 2.7.5 on

Hello all, I''m doing some testing with Xen and NPIV disk on the platform SLES 10 SP2 and SLES 11 (xen 3.3). On SLES 10 sp2, I have not encountered major problems during the tests (exept with live migration). I was able to attach a disk with the command "xm block-attach npiv:..." an I am also able to start a VM using a bootable NPIV disk. On sles11, after changing the script

I have a sles10 domU running on a sles11 dom0. xen is version 3.4. We''re trying to pass through a scsi card to the domU. We assign the domU the scsi card through virt manager. When we try to boot the domU it won''t boot. We need to update fstab and menu.lst, but we need to boot with the hardware attached to see how it''s being seen by the domU. On a physical machine we

I'm trying to understand what the extlinux bootloader code written into a partition needs to successfully start. I have a disk with four partitions, the second is marked active and contains a kernel, initrd and root FS and extlinux has been run on it. If I use mbr.bin as the initial bootloader the system boots fine. I need this to work within an environment supplied by a third party. They

Hi, I have two disks in my computer with each one, a bootloader. The first disk (a usb key) boot with syslinux bootloader that launches a tiny kernel. The second disk has grub 2. I need to boot the disk 2 with grub, from the tiny kernel of the disk 1. So i use the bios interruption 0x19 to load the second bootloader, but this solution doesn't works. If i use a my own bootloader, the

In SUSE guests, handle the case where Bootloader::Tools::GetDefaultSection () returns undef. Previously this would return an empty string and cause a bogus error in subsequent code: virt-v2v: error: libguestfs error: statns: statns_stub: path must start with a / character --- v2v/linux_bootloaders.ml | 17 ++++++++++++++--- 1 file changed, 14 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git
