I''m running Xen on RHEL5. I''ve got two problems with CD-ROMs. In my .hvm file, I''ve got the following line: disk = [ ''phy:/dev/VG_Guests/WinXP-001,ioemu:hda,w'', ''file:/opt/xen_stuff/winxp.iso,hdc:cdrom,w'', ''phy:/dev/scd0,hdd:cdrom,r'' ] The first CD-ROM, (the one linking to the file winxp.iso), appears to WinXP to

Hi all! I have recently purchased an Athlon X2 3800+ and I should like to install FreeBSD or OpenBSD in a HVM domU on Xen 3.0.3-1 dom0 (Debian packages). Is it possible? In such case, can someone recommend me a guide/howto to accomplish it? Thanks in advance.

Hi everybody, I seen many post on running Windows XP on the top of Xen with proper hardware (Intel Vt) ... I would like to know if at this time, i could do that with Xen 3.0.2-2 or Xen unstable ? If yes, could you tell me the procedure ... In 2 week i will make a show with Intel to demonstrate this possibility ... If at this time we couldn''t, i will change the contents of the show ;)

Hi. I can''t use the vnc option (VNC=1 in my xmexample.hvm file), when I use RedHat or Fedora on 64 bits. The qemu log, say /usr/lib64/xen/bin/qemu-dm: invalid option -- ''-vncconnect'' But when I use RedHat or Fedora 32 bits, works fine. There is a problem or incompatibility in the 64 bits Xen kernel and the VNC option ? Best regards Luis

Not a centos specific question here, but if anyone can save me from shooting myself in the foot would appreciate any pointers.... I have an older centos 4.7 box that I recently replaced with a newer one running centos 5.3. I'd like to add the hard disk from the older one to the newer one before I scrap it for good. I don't care about the data on it, would just like the extra drive

Hi, i''m a little bit stuck here with creating a HVM-Windows (w2k3) Guest under Xen 3.1. I''m using ubuntu 7,10 with a 2.6.22.16-xen-patched kernel which seems to be stable for single cpu-linux guests. Cpu is a Q6600 and XD,VT and VT-d is enabled in the bios. When i create the windows guest with ''xm create w2k3 -c" (conf below) I get: "Started domain

Hi, From cset 10921, ioemu: prefix is removed from disk config in /etc/xen/xmexample.hvm. Now HVM VBD driver is available, this thus raises a question: how would HVM domain know if one disk is a qemu-dm disk or a VBD disk? From current implementation, qemu-dm will recognize disk had, hdb, hdc, hdd, and VBD drive can recognize all disk (had~hdd, hde, hdf ...) . So the result is: qemu-dm will

Hello everyone, I grabbed xen-3.3.1 sources from the Mercurial repository (xen-3.3-testing.hg, changeset 475:1cf755387728, from Oct. 23, 2008) and built Xen from these sources on a 32-core (8 quad core Barcelona CPUs) SunFire machine, running an Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardyy Heron) distribution. Everything seemed to be going OK until I booted an HVM (also Ubuntu 8.04) domain. That domain boots normally but

Hi, guys. I''m trying to use physical disks as virtual disks in HVM domains. But I couldn''t. I''m using cs10508 of xen-unstable.hg. When I use disk = [ ''phy:sda5,ioemu:hda,w'' ] in conf file, creating HVM domain says, I need to use ''file'' modifier if I use ''ioemu''. So, I changed it to disk = [

Hello, I don''t have a Vt-x machine on which I can test and see; I have a question regarding running qemu on Vt-x xen machines. xen-unstable has a config file example: dist/install/etc/xen/xmexample.hvm In this file we have the follwoing line: device_model = ''/usr/'' + arch_libdir + ''/xen/bin/qemu-dm'' The use manual says about the device_model:

Hi, As a previous thread in http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2006-06/msg01111.html tells, it should be possible tun run hvm domains with a physical disk. There where other threads about this, but no solution for my current problem. When I try to use a disk defined as disk = [ ''phy:data/faitest-client-generic-hvm-disk,ioemu:hda,w''] (The device is a lvm

Hi. I added a disk to a hardware raid 5 array and now i want to expand the LVM physical volume. There are now 4 sas 146GB disks in the server.

Hi everyone! I have this doubt, on xenexpress there''s a command to export and import a vm i think it''s like this xe vm-export uuid=0099... filename=/path xe vm-import filename=/path ... I was wondering if there is something like this on Xen 3.0.3. If not how can i make a complete backup of my vm to install it on another computer (is it posible?). Thanks for your time and

I''m using Xen 3.1.0 on Debian etch, kernel 2.6.18-4-xen-amd64. One of the guests runs Windows XP. I am trying to install an application (Autodesk Inventor) that spans two DVDs.
