Package: xen Version: 4.0.1-5.5 Severity: critical --- Please enter the report below this line. --- Hi! Since the update last weekind in stable/squeeze I'm experiencing problems with running Xen on amd64 and multiple domUs losing their network connection/VIFs. From http://blog.windfluechter.net/content/blog/2013/02/26/1597-xen-problems-vms-2632-5-xen-amd64 Unfortunately this update

I am trying to write a script to handle setup of domains using virtual block devices for their root FS and have been unable to get the virtual devices to work with any sort of consistency. This is using xen-1.1.bk on Redhat 7.3 (I had to rebuild all the tool binaries to run on 7.3). Anyway, I would first like to make sure I am using the vd/vbd stuff correctly. Here is an example of the problem I

Hi, I''ve been touring XCP and making my way around it for the last few days, and am having problems with some reasonably straightforward actions. I''ve poured a several hours into different ways of resolving the issue, but am coming up short. Here''s the main issue. The following command (plugging in a VBD to the dom0 VM), when, run, hangs for several minutes, and then

Yesterday, I had a PV OpenSolaris DomU stop responding. I looked on my xen machine and it was in a paused state. I ended up destroying it and then doing xm create to bring it back up. It won''t boot, and I think PyGrub is hanging. Not sure how to resolve this, there aren''t any errors being presented in xen/xm itself. If I try ''xm create config.conf'' it just

Hi, I''m running Xen 3.0.4 with suse (kernel 2.6.16.46-0.12-xen). I''ve a problem with a "ghost" (paravirt) domain that appear in the output of xm list. As an example: # xm list Name ID Mem VCPUs State Time(s) Domain-0 0 1024 4 r----- 29.0 vm-xyz

There are a number of flaws in the blktap userspace daemon when dealing with I/O errors. - The backends which use AIO check the io_events.res member to determine if an I/O error occurred. Which is good. But when calling the callback to signal completion of the I/O, they pass the io_events.res2 member Now this seems fine at first glance[1] "res is the usual result of an I/O

Hi. I'm testing a centos 5.4 xen PV guest on top of a centos 5.4 host. for some reason, the disk performance from the guest is awful. when I do an import , the io is fine for a while then climbs to 100% and stays there most of the time. at first I tougth it was because I was using file-backed disks, so deleted those and changed to LVM, but the situation did't improve. Here's an

Dear Community, i have a problem with a new debian XEN 64bit squeeze Server, when i started a windows hvm domU. I tested with the routed and now in the bridge network mod. I start the domU with xm create win.cfg and 1 or 2 second the dom0 is reboot. I install a debian domU on the system, and this is without any problems in routed and bridge mod. In the logfile are no informations, in the routed

Package: xcp-xapi Version: 1.3.2-6 Severity: normal Tags: upstream Normally (in 'iso-based' XCP) is possible to attach VDI to dom0. That operation usually looks like: xe vbd-create vdi-uuid=... vm-uuid=(dom0 uuid) device=N xe vbd-plug I done those steps in xcp-xapi and got success (no error), but no xvd* device found. Here operations log: # xe vbd-create

Hi folks, we (the company i am working for) are running several dozens of virtualisation servers using CentOS 6 + Xen4CentOS as the virtualisation infrastructure. With the latest versions of all packages installed [1], we see failures in live-migration of stock-CentOS6 HVM guests, leaving a "Domain-unnamed" on the source host, while the migrated guest runs fine on the target host.

Hello, I''m currently trying to understand some problems I had in the past with mixing look-back with blktap(2) for HV and PV domains. I''m stuck reading the source code, so I''d like to get some help from the list. Interrupt me if I got something fundamentally wrong in my understanding so far: 1. With pure-HV the domU gets an emulated IDE (or whatever) disk. The

I''m having some problems in Xen trying to create a new block script for rbd devices (Ceph RBD) and using those devices in domUs. I''ve attached the block-rbd script that I''ve created and placed in /etc/xen/scripts. Basically, this should allow me to specify the following in my config file: disk = [ ''rbd:image-name,hda,w'' ] ...where image-name is the

Hi, I have a Xen server running OpenSuSE 10.2, with Xen version 3.0.3_11774. It''s happily hosting two DomU''s running the same OS / kernel. Now I tried to create a new DomU running a newer OS - OpenSuSE 11.1. It comes with Xen version 3.3.1_18494_03. Unfortunately for me, it doesn''t work - this is what I get: > xen1:/etc/xen/vm # xm create NEW > Using config file

Hey all, I''m trying to figure out how to re-size physical partitions in the Dom U. I''ve read up what I can find on line and finally decided to have Logical Volumes in the Dom 0 and pass them as physical volumes for use in the Dom U. Here''s an example of what I''m doing. To start in the Dom 0 I created the LV''s with lvcreate -n guest_boot -L 100M

I''m a complete newbie at Xen, just getting started. I was happy to see that Ubuntu 11.10 includes Xen again, http://zulcss.wordpress.com/2011/09/04/xen-4-1-1-on-ubuntu/ So I installed ubuntu 11.10''s precompiled Xen, and started playing around with it. I''m not even trying to start another VM at the moment, just playing around with mounting block devices, and had trouble
