Hello, I guess it possible distro specific issue but is it resolvable? I have one node(testing purpose) ganeti 2.0.1 cluster installed over Debian5 Lenny. Almost everything from distro repositories. Only ganeti 2.0.1 and ganeti-debootstrap are from sources. I have it successful run with vmlinuz-2.6.26-2-xen-686 and initrd.img-2.6.26-2-xen-686 from repositories. Both Dom0 and DomU are use the

Hi ! I''m tryng to install a windows instance to a ganeti cluster. For the moment, i have configured ganeti2, i have created a debian instance with debootstrap OS, i have created a windows instance with xen commands, with a HVM processor. I have already initialize too my cluster with HVM and PVM option. However, i can''t create a windows vm with ganeti2. my command is:

hi community, after installing (debian 6) squeeze, roughly following the installation guide on the xen (and ganeti) websites (using the aptitude pm for xen4 and genati2) i have run into a very strange ?bug? - ?annoyance? on my main node (xeon e5506 on a supermicro X8DTL-i). while booting up the system with the xen 4 boot wrapper, the sequence suddenly stops for what seems to be "no

Hi, My name is Jose and I work at Google on the Ganeti project. I am using Xen 4.0. I would like to ask your advice on what you think is the best way to send data between the guest and the host, for example, the guest OS tells Ganeti that it wants to be reinstalled at reboot time. Even a simple integer suffices for our purposes. We have considered adding a new device, such as, a char/block

Hello all, I'd like to introduce to you snf-image-creator, an OS image creation tool that makes heavy use of libguestfs. We have been developing it for almost 3 years and use it with the Synnefo[1] open source IaaS cloud software and also with Google's Ganeti[2] cluster management software. However it is completely independent from the above solutions and can be used as a generic image

We have tested the latest xen on VT platform with Intel 915/E8500 chipset.

Hello guys, I am setting up dom0. I have read that is recommended restricting one cpu for dom0. In the xen wiki there''s a list of grub parameters http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Xen_Hypervisor_Boot_Options but it seems deprecated? http://groups.google.com/group/ganeti/browse_thread/thread/a18979bdd00f6461 Do you guys use this option (maxcpus) as shown here as well?

Hi I've been looking for a standalone tool to create OVA/OVF VM files based on a disk image and found none. So I was thinking to write my own. Would you be interested in having such a tool in the libguestfs umbrella ? My aim is too have a free toolchain to build VirtualBox images for Debian (for Vagrant to be more exact, see https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Cloud/VagrantBaseBoxes) Interface for

Hi, i wont separate drbd traffic in domU to eth1 interface. What is the best way to do that? I think about make eth1 nic passthrough to my domU. Can i expect some problems with this configuration? _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Hi, i''ve a problem with drbd 0.7.10 module on an xenU OS (testing). I''ve compiling drbd with "make clean all" then "make install" without error. modprobe drbd OK with no error too and now and trying to start drdb /etc/init.d/drbd start Starting DRBD resources: can not open /dev/drbd0: No such device or address [ d0 can not open /dev/drbd0: No such device

I am using ttylinux-xen file system image a a loopback device for the domain. I am mostly using the default configuration. I am not able to get networking on the domU. Are kernel "vmlinuz-2.6-xenU" as well as "2.6.11.12-xen0" both compiled w/o loadable module support? I guess it fails when it tries to initialize the iptables on the domU when it tries to do "modprobe".

I ran some iperf tests today and it looks like the etherbridge is the limiting factor on throughput. In the beforetime, I saw great throughput to the VMs; over 800 Mbps. With the bridge, the numbers are in the 400s somewhere. Is this the speed I can expect from the bridge? Is there some tuning I should try, or another way to get more bandwidth into the VMs? This is with xen-2.0, 2.4.27-xen0

hi, I am trying to start a new domainU but got the error: Error: Device 0 (vif) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working I have struggled with it for a long time. I found somebody else report this but can not find a solution. The xen version is xen-3.0 latest version. I do not have a initrd. Domain0 works fine but when I create a new domain, it always gives an error as above. Thanks,

I posted this to the Fedora-test list but I''ll try here. If I need to ditch fedora rpms and move to building directly from src before posting here, please let me know and I''ll do so (apologies in advance if this is the case).

Hello everybody, we are happy to announce that since v0.15.1, Synnefo is available for the CentOS distribution via our official RPM packages.

Hi guys, Another strange behavior with some test servers. They are booted using 2.6.11.12, xen-2.0.6, Debian. The only daemons running on dom0 are : xend, smtp, quagga (ospf), portmap (nfs client), sshd. Memory usage at startup is aroung 30 MB. Dom0 reserved memory is 256 MB. The only things that happen on this server are domU''s start/stop (xm create, xm shutdown) and a

Hi Can someone help me figure out a way to compile a 2.4 kernel in a 2.6 system. Basically it keeps failing because it needs the genksyms package, which is provided in the modutils package from redhat, but obviously this isn''t presetn on the 2.6 kernel. I was wondering how the xen maintainers go about compiling their 2.4 kernel and 2.6 kernel. Do you do it on different systems then
