Hello! I''ve got CentOS 5.3 x64 as dom0 and the same OS for domU. I''ve installed it using the following manual: http://www.howtoforge.com/centos_5.0_xen Guest image was taken from stacklet.com Unfortunately, I can''t make domU working with public static IP. When I use bridged networking, the guest don''t have network connection at all. When I use routed

Hi Everyone, In the guest image I download from stacklet, a Ubuntu 10.04 x86_64 DomU, in /var/log/auth.log, I see: /dev/hvc0: No such file or directory listed a lot of times. I''m not experiencing any problems, however it makes looking through logs for auditing purposes a bit annoying. Any ideas what this is? I think it has something to do with the "Hypervisor Console",

I have an odd problem. I am running an ubuntu 10.04 domu that I got from stacklet on my centos 5.5/xen4.0.1 dom0. The problem is that even sitting idle the domu has a 1.05 load with init taking up 99% of that. I have searched around but have not found what is causing the issue. I thought I remembered this being mentioned on the list before but could not find it either. My domu.cfg is as

Hi, Has anybody ever stumbled upon the need to replicate a live and in production server to a virtual machine? I''m trying to virtualize a bunch of servers but I can''t figure out how can I mirror the file system. I do not want to start from scratch with them. The whole idea is to transfer them to the virtual side as they currently are. Any advice is welcome. Thank you.

Hi all, I have been having an issue for over a year with several Xen installations and have not been able to find out if this is just something I am missing. Basically I am trying to configure a firewall with two ethernet cards in a domU using pci passthrough. I am hiding the Ethernet cards at boot time via the pciback.hide kernel option. Right now I am running Xen 3.3.0 and the two Ethernet

Hello there, I have some issues regarding xend domU migration to XCP VM. I try to migrate my old xend domU''s to my xen Could using the xva.py script. All seems to work quite ok, the migration process doesn''t throw any errors, i get a .xva file with a proper Size. When importing that file, immidiately the VG and LV is created, and VM properties are assigned correctly. But when

Dear *, I''m more used to work with RedHat like OSes. Still, I did not denied the request from a user who wants a domU based on ubunto. I usually use virt-install to do the job, with a script similar to this one: #!/bin/sh BASE=SL-4.7-i386-pv \ virt-install --nographics \ --nonsparse \ --paravirt \ --noreboot \

Hello Can anyone share a known working config for xen which would transfer a serial interface ( add-on card preferably, mine uses e880-e887 : 0000:03:05.0 / ec00-ec07 : 0000:03:05.0 ) to a DomU ? I've been trying with the stock packages from Centos 5.5 ( fully updated) and also with gitco's 3.4.3 but after 2 days of googling and testing we still fail to access the serial

Hi: Reading Red Hat''s Website and a printed manual of RH184 (Red Hat Virtualization course) I see that RHEL 5 only supports RHEL 4.5 and RHEL 5 as paravirtualized guests. So I asume this is the same situation for CentOS 5, right? What''s the dependency between Xen versions for paravirtualized guests? I ask this questions because I got this experiences: 1. Running CentOS 5 as

I am running a Debian Squeeze Xen 4.0.1 Hypervisor and 2.6.32-5-xen-amd64 dom0. My xen-tools.conf: lvm = vg00 size = 100Gb # Disk image size. memory = 2048Mb # Memory size swap = 2G # Swap size # noswap = 1 # Don''t use swap at all for the new system. fs = ext4 # use the EXT3 filesystem for the disk image. dist = `xt-guess-suite-and-mirror --suite` # Default

Hi, I''m trying to install Debian Squeeze as DomU on an openSUSE 11.4 Xen host but fail all the time. I''ve also searched Google and Debian as well as openSUSE resources but haven''t found any hint about my issue :-( First I''ve tried to install it as a paravirtualized guest but when the Debian installer tries to detect the disks I get this: [ 173.233735]

Hi There is a problem when creating a domU.

Greetings! Trying to to run a xen3 domU on a xen4 dem0 I run into problems. The xen server ''XEN1''(dom0) is openSUSE-11.3 (kernel 2.6.34) and xen-4.0.1. With qemu I created an image ''M08.raw'' from the SUSE-9.3 (kernel 2.6.11) and XEN-3.0 installation CD''s. The XEN modules were included in the installation. In M08.raw/boot I configured grub/menu.lst:

Hello, I can''t solve my problem. I want a 32 bits Lenny domU into a 64 bits Lenny dom0. I plan to use pygrub for that (xen 3.2.1). So, I tried to debootstrap a 32 bits domU into a 64 bits dom0. debootstrap --arch=i386 --include=libc6-xen,firmware-bnx2,linux-image-2.6.26-1-xen-686,linux-modules-xen-686,linux-image-xen-686,grub --components=main,contrib,non-free lenny /mnt/xen

Hi... My name is Bruno I want congratulation all of group. My first question about XEN . I have Centos with XEN installed. I am trying make an virtual machine Debian using virt-install, my options are: [*root@xen opt]# virt-install * *What is the name of your virtual machine? Debian* * How much RAM should be allocated (in megabytes)? 256* * What would you like to use as the disk (file path)?

This is a proposal for modifying the interface for domU bootloaders (i.e. something that provides us with a kernel and ramdisk file with which the domain can be booted). The current interface, as is, has a number of problems, including: 1) the first disk specified is assumed to be the disk containing the files 2) ''bootentry'' is highly pygrub-specific. There is no easy facility

I have got a Centos 5.3 i386. I would like to install a Debian Lenny paravirtualized domU.

Hello, I created a paravirtualized Debian Squeeze guest (using virt-manager), after completing the initial setup I was asked to reboot, in order to finalise the installation.
