Hi, What is the preferred OS to use with XEN, as the dom0 host? We primarely us CentOS (currently 5.6) but it seems that the native XEN that comes with CentOS is a bit behind. What is the preferred OS to run on the dom0''s? -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers SoftDux Website: http://www.SoftDux.com Technical Blog: http://Blog.SoftDux.com Office: 087 805 9573 Cell: 082 554 7532

I have 4 guest VMs installed on 1 host. One of them is Vyatta (VC5). Currently we are using default Xen-bridge for communication between VMs(inter-domain or intra-domain). I want to assign Vyatta(a guest VM) exclusively to replace Xen-bridging for VM to VM communication. Means the traffic sent from guest-1 to guest-2 bypass briging and route through vyatta(VM), instead of going to Dom0. As

Hi, I have created a virtual system via xen and would like to strip some unrequired virtual hardware from it. Example: my virtual Windows system shows me a scsi PCI device (as unknown device). I would like to get rid of it - I am only using IDE in the virtual system. How can I hide specific hardware from the virtual system? Cheers, Emre P.S.: as far as I understand specifying

Hello all, Not sure if I am completely missing something but here goes. I have XCP 1.0 running without any issues. I have the mtu set on both the storage network, the corresponding PIF, and the VIF to 9000 and when displayed in ifconfig it shows that this is indeed true. I have several CentOs 5.6 VMs running in HVM mode (i.e. no xen kernel) which attach to the the storage network through these

Hello, I have been using Xen for many years now. I have mainly used it on Ubuntu and Debian, but I have also tried it on CentOS 5. Most of my machines have been installed a few years back. Then there seemed to be good packages for most distributions and a lot of nice examples on how to get it working. Now that I am trying to install a new server with the latest version of my favorite

[previously posted to xen-devel@ and xen-api@ but this might be of interest to xen-users@ too] Hi, I''ve refreshed the Xen Cloud Platform (XCP) .isos on xen.org with a new development snapshot (labelled version 0.1.1). XCP is a collaborative effort to build a complete cloud infrastructure platform, complete with a powerful management stack, standards-based APIs, support for multi-tenancy

Hi all, I started studying xen to implement some HA cluster hosting multiple guests. I am realizing that xen does not provide any native way to hot-clone or hot-backup a guest. Am I right ? Is there any way to how backup a virtual machine? Or is suspend - copy - resume the only possible tecnique ? Is there any way to clone a virtual machine? Do vm snapshots exists? Thank you for every answer!

Hello Community, I''m very new to Xen Virtualization and hope one of you can advice and guide me. We are planning to virtualize existing 4 old server that we used in a project. The server is 4 years old but I do believe very good HW that we can reuse and take advantage of virtualization. In a nutshell the hardware spec looks like this; 2 Server with Intel® Xeon® Processor 5160 (4M

Xen Community: As you are aware, the Xen Cloud Platform has been available for download since last November and is becoming a very successful release for Xen.org. In fact, we are seeing substantial network traffic for this solution as we had 26 TB of data from XCP downloads in the past 4 weeks. Of course, this amount of traffic is forcing a re-examination of our co-location agreements as we are

I would like to gain some idea of the XCP impact of these two CPU versions: Intel Core i7-2600, 3.4 GHz Core i7-2600K, 3.5 GHz Both have VT-x Differences 2600K does not include: Embedded Opions Available vPro Technology Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O Trusted Execution Technology Is the difference critical? Thanks, ray

Hi, All I''m just new to this list, I''m started to dealing with OSS Xen to XCP migration earlier this week, seem the domUs installed via virt-install are function well, but domUs copied via dom0 are failed during bootup process, finally I realize if I could fix this on my OSS Xen will resolve all.

Hi, I think this would be the best forum, let me know if not. I am in the middle of writing fencing scripts for Citrix XenServer virtual machines (specifically for use with Redhat Clustering, but will also work from pacemaker etc) and I noticed that XCP uses the same XenAPI (from what I can tell). Just wondering if someone would be able to test the scripts on XCP and let me know if they work.

Hello, I just tried out XCP and I was surprised to see it looks pretty much like Xen from Citrix. Based on the RPM packages installed, I assume XCP is based on RHEL5. With that in mind, I have a few questions that I did not find an answer on the web... Perhaps I didn''t look in the right places, so if you know about any good documentations that I should read please share it :)

I am VERY new to using Xen, and I am having some issues with hosting Windows guests. Lets break it down. I am running Xen, on a Dell Optiplex 745 desktop with a single integrated NIC that is hosting two Windows 2003 Server standard edition SP 2 each configured with 2 NICs. The original image was configured and setup, and then cloned through the UI. The issue I am experiencing now is the two

Hi Folks: I am having trouble creating a Fedora 14 domU on a XCP 1.0 dom0 hypervisor and am hoping that someone can help me figure out what I am doing wrong.

I finally have a xen server to play with stuff that''s causing me problems on my production servers. One of those problems is simply installing Windows 2003.

When it gets to the formatting I tell it to format in NTFS.
