similar to: GPLPV uninstaller

I have installed the 210 gplpv (debug), when I try to update them with current gplpv I get a BSOD even so when I try to uninstall them. Now I have made a bootentry that specifies NOGPLPV, what gives me a bootable system after such a crash, I found (uninstalling the leftover driver packages after getting bsod during uninstall of the main package) that uninstalling the net driver leads to bsod. Now

Trying to install them on Xen 3.4.0, Intel E5345 Processors, Server 2008 64bit. I get the BSoD on boot with the 0x0000007B stop message. I''ve got a bunch of 2003 32bits running on the same host with the 0.10.0.69 drivers and those are totally happy. I tried the boot once with NOGPLPV idea mentioned in another thread, that didn''t do the trick. Ideas anyone? pace

Just reporting some iperf results. In each case, Dom0 is iperf server, DomU is iperf client: (1) Dom0: Intel Core2 3.16 GHz, CentOS 5.2, xen 3.0.3.

Hi James Harper and others, I seen that problem already discussed early, but maybe it help you make hiding qemu devices when install gplpv driver. For now, when install gplpv i has not working qemu disk driver (gplpv works) and not working gplpv network (i think i can disable realtek network card and then gplpv will work). When you discuss German and French windows versions - you ask about

Hi, I just installed gplpv drive for my windows 2003 domU, but not sure if it works right, in my device manager, there is a unknown pci device, do you know what''s that?

Hi Is it true that the GPLPV drivers is incompatible with QCOW images? The Windows DomU works fine with raw standard "file:/" images, and paravirtualized Linux DomU works fine with QCOW and raw images. If i use QCOW images with my Windows DomU''s i get a stop error: 0x00000007b (inaccessible boot device). It looks like the blkback.3.hda process, that normally starts with

Hi, I''ve noticed that on a Xen cluster with three nodes (two E5620 CPUs and one E5140 CPU) live migration works perfectly in between to two E5620 nodes, but fails to and from the E5140. The error message is about a HVM context not being able to be set. I strongly suspect the use 238 GPPVL drivers, but I cannot uninstall them at this point because someone else needs the server. Could

So I successfully installed the GPLPV drivers in a Windows installation I have running under Xen. Turns out SP2 is needed - I wish this was slightly better documented somewhere, as the machine ended up bluescreening and I had to use /NOGPLPV to get it to boot again so I could upgrade it to SP2. My question is this: I ended up using ''disable'' in device manager for the rtl8139 and

I''ve recently noticed that my windows crash dumps fail at around 40-50% under GPLPV. ''xm dmesg'' shows the following: (XEN) grant_table.c:350:d0 Iomem mapping not permitted ffffffffffffffff (domain 865) At first I thought that the cause was just a bug in my grant ref code but it just occurred to me that this could be happening when Windows tries to write out the

Hi, DomU is a Win2008 R2 64 When i install the GPLPV drivers the network latency goes from 15ms to random numbers up to 1200ms and eventually dies. If you run a ping from the DomU to another host the network stays alive but the high latency is still there. Further more if i try and uninstall the network driver i am unable to use the old one (realtek) as it cannot detect the device.

I have just uploaded a new testing version of GPL PV drivers for Windows. Have a look for 0.10.0.97-dontuse at http://www.meadowcourt.org/downloads (the -dontuse bit is to scare people away who haven''t read this email :) As usual, please test thoroughly on a test DomU and make sure you have a backup before installing on a non-test system. In particular, I''m only testing with Xen

1. Shouldn''t the GPLPV drivers take care of the (bad) clock drift I''m experiencing in my Windows XP HVM? Or is there some other way around this problem that I haven''t been able to find on Google? How can I tell if the GPLPV drivers are active? I''ve added the /gplpv switch to the boot.ini file and the virtual NIC is definitely using the GPLPV version but other

What is the state of GPLPV and Windows 8? I am currently running tests with Windows 8 and GPLPV rev956 and operations (disk IO, net IO) look good. There seems to be a problem with shutdown/reboot where Windows hangs somewhat and displays a warning about improper shutdown on next reboot. Regards Andreas

One of my customers handed me a copy of this paper and asked why are we using xen if it is so slow... http://morse.colorado.edu/~tlen5710/12s/VMware.pdf which is a fairly damning report of performance under Xen in comparison to VMWare, citing worse than 50% overhead of Xen in comparison to physical. Has anyone seen this paper before? James

I''ve just uploaded 0.9.11-pre7. save/restore should be working for 32 bits on both SMP and UP, and maybe for 64 bits although it''s not tested. If someone could test migration it would be much appreciated. The installer seems to not install the drivers under 64 bit environment... but they can then be installed manually. Not sure why at this point.

I am rewriting the TX path in the GPLPV drivers and in its current form I am readily able to crash the system (eg Dom0 and everything else running) from DomU. xen is 3.3.1, linux is at most a week behind the 3.3.1 release date. My Windows DomU boots up, fails to get an IP address (yes, the TX path is broken), and then a short time later the system has rebooted. I don''t know exactly

Hi Everyone, I am trying my hands on xen under Solaris SXCE build 113. The machine has the following configuration: 2 Quad Core Xeon CPUs 16 GB RAM Solaris SXCE b113 4 disks - 2 mirrors x 2 stripes under ZFS The problem is that xen HVM is very slow. I am using the following command to create an Ubuntu 9.0.4 test vm. virt-install -n test1 -r 2048 --vcpus=2 -f /vdatapool/data/test1.img -s 50
