similar to: Noob question: Where is "xe" on xen 4.0 on Debian Sid?

Thanks for all the help... XVP seems quite high on requirements. Like it needs an SMTP server set up. I''m not sure I like that. I found a tool called BixData, it''s proprietary but with a free license for a limited number of managed servers. Being a fully fledged cloud management system, it''s true overkill for me and my 3-4 virtual machines, but at least it seems quite

Hello everyone. I have the following problem that could help would appreciate. 1) Environment: HOST 1: xen-hypervisor-3.2-1-amd64 with all VM in LVM disk. HOST 2: XCP 0.5 2) The VM that I wish migrate is a domU in XEN and is debian lenny over LVM: ................................................................................................... # Configuration file for the Xen instance

Hi all, I`m evaluating methods for nightly "snapshot" a physical win2003 to xcp vm. I know it would be a lot easier and reliable just to to one convert one time and start to generate real vm snapshots, but at this time I cannot use this method. I tested the sequence: disk2vdh -> xenconvert (to xcp), but a big deal of using this method is that xenconvert does not send

I''m trying to follow the guide to set up Lenny 5.0 VMs on my newly installed XCP machine. Following what the wiki suggests I downloaded the lenny.xva from http://www.xen.org/files/XenCloud/Software/lenny.xva, saving to domain zero. (note that this file was updated March 1, 2011) When I try to import lenny.xva to my Xen Cloud Platform host using the command: xe vm-import

Have an Onapp system we are migrating away from to xenserver and it uses Xen source images I believe. I had no problem moving the MS Windows servers using the xenconvert utility, but not being a linux guy the conversion process of moving files from Onapp to xenserver is not clear. I think the files on Onapp are .img files, but they don''t use extensions from what I can tell when they

Hi: Sorry for the basic NOOB question but I managed to create a VM but now I am stuck. On page 26 of the XCP Virtual Machine Installation Guide it says "VNC and perform the OS installation". I tried everything I could find (listed below) but I am stuck. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Here are two questions whose answers would really help: 1.

Hello, I am using Citrix XenServer for my VM environment. I found that If I am using samba 3.4.3 and dump a vm from a Citrix xen node the resulting image is not importable(ie corrupt) into xenCenter. If I am using samba-3.3.9 and perform the same operation everything works great. To dump the vm's from Xen I mount a samba share from the domU OS. I use the following xen commands to dump the

I''m attempting to convert a CentOs 5.6 x64 machine from Xen (Open Source) to Citrix XenServer and I am having some trouble towards the final stages. I need to take the .XVA created by XVA.PY and use XenConvert to manipulate this into another file format (OVF). Here''s the process I use: 1. Poweroff the VM 2. Create a new disk in 3 times the size of the primary 3. Sign in to

Hey, Is it possible to covert a .img to a xva? I have a virtual machine on a xen machine that i would like to run in a xen cloud.

Hello, It is nearly not possible to use XCP without a tutorial, in particular if ones has to use the xe CLI. Reading of reference.pdf and guests.pdf of XenServer and different wiki pages didn''t help enough. Even *XCP seems to be a very good software* it will be useless without good documentation because of it''s complexity. Thank you in advance for any hints. Regards, Mark

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

Xen Community, I have a team of people frantically creating manpages for the xe command and all of it''s 361 subcommands. The initial source documentation is in asciidoc but also saved as Docbook. From docbook we transform to epub, html, manpage and pdf. This is currently being hosted in a subversion server at a Seattle area college and we''d like to move it to the xen-org

Hello! I''m quite new to Xen, and am wondering what is the best way to handle my XCP based server... Eg. video console for installation and maintenance, shutdown, restart, disk and memory config, etc. I read about openxenmanager, but it seems like an abandoned project, and seems extremely nontrivial to use under OSX. What about XenWebManager? I need to install that on the XCP server

Hi - I''m trying to use the instructions here http://xen.pablolibo.com/doku.php to create a new VM but it''s not clear where the .cfg file should go and what to do next. I was thinking xe needs to install the vm from the /mnt/so_xen mount but i''m not sure. Are the steps on the site reasonable? Is there a way to install a vm from USB instead?  I don''t have an

Hello Everyone, I am new with XCP. I''ve setup several hosts with* XCP 1.0* and manage it through XenCenter and command console. Each host has two NICs, one (xenbr0) connected to a physical switch for Internet (said sw1), the other (xenbr3) connected to a physical switch for internal network (said sw2). I am trying to setup VMs and VLANs on xenbr3. I created a virtual bridge by

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.
