Hi guys I have few problems with live migration ... and I need some professional help :) I have 2 xen servers ... CentOS 5.3 and I want to have a high available cluster Now let`s begin .... xen0: [root@xen0 ~]# fdisk -l Disk /dev/sda: 218.2 GB, 218238025728 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 26532 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start

I am now testing XEN live migration on two physical hosts with XEN 4.0.1 pvops Ubuntu 10.10 (2.6.35-22). Host A also acts as a NFS server, and Host B acts as a NFS client. When I migrate a guest domain from B to A. The ssh connection experiences a downtime of about 1 minute (the terminal does not react to the keyboard input till about 1 minute later). However, the "sudo xm console" does

Hi, i do some tests with restoring HVM winxp-domU''s. Even, if i restore a saved DomU from a ramdisk, the Restoring-process has only a bandwidth about 23MB/sec: Here a example restoring an 512MB HVM opensuse10.3 DomU ......

Hi, I have three Xen hosts running Xen 4.0.2 (OpenSuSE 11.4 based). I also have one ''NFS'' server with an NFS export holding VM images and configuration files. Each host has a dedicated LAN link directly to the NFS server. I have another separated NFS export for VM locking (but I had the same issues before). When I attempt to live migrate a VM, it *looks''*like

Hi, Live migration was working well for me with 3.1. Recently I move to 3.2, and now live migration does not work anymore. Here is what i obtain on source node : ---- xm migrate --live webdav node2 Error: /usr/lib/xen-3.2-1/bin/xc_save 26 6 0 0 1 failed Usage: xm migrate <Domain> <Host> [...] ---- And in the xend.log (still on the source node) : ---- [2008-03-03 10:12:52 15205] INFO

Just wondering if this is a known bug? Trying to migrate the VM off to a diff dom0 results in the below error. Other VMs migrated off fine (started at around the same time as this vm) and I''ve tried a few different target servers, all resulting in the same thing.

Hello, When I snapshot a vm( hvm centos ) the first time, it succeed. There is a snapshot file on disk and the vm is running. But when I do it the second time, it fail for timeout. what''s wrong with it? This error happened when I used xen-4.0.1-rc5 and kernel-2.6.31.13.

Hello, I have been struggling through the task of moving our infrastructure over to Xen VMs. We were initially using Ubuntu packages for both dom0 and our domUs, but experienced extreme instability so we moved to CentOS, which has been much more reliable for dom0. Since we already had a bunch of Ubuntu VMs, we left them using the Ubuntu 2.4.24-19-xen kernel, but this has turned out to be

Hi folks I deploy a two Dell PowerEdge T300 to test Virtualization with kvm+drbd+heartbaet. The KVM drbd and heartbeat work properly. However, I have doubt!! When the primary node has down, the secondary node start the VM that has original running on primary node... So, this required a full stop of hole system... This is not we wish here... Is there something way to live migrate VM from

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 everyone, for research purposes I''m working on Xen 3.0.3 and trying to make some modifications to Xen migration. By looking at the documentation, I''ve learned that the part I''m interesting in are handled by two binaries (xc_save and xc_restore), so I thought about modifying just this two binaries instead of recompiling the whole Xen everytime, so what I do is just

Hi, I have been getting the following error (logged in /var/log/xen/xend.log) when I try to migrate a VM from one particular host to the other (the reverse migration works fine). My system was working fine for a long time (i did several migrations in both the directions). I am using Xen-3.4.3 (installed from source code) with CentOS 5.4. I am using drbd to replicate the disks.

Hi all, I am using Xen 4.0.0 on top of Ubuntu Lucid (amd64), with the Jeremy kernel taken from git (xen/stable-2.6.32.x branch, 2.6.32.12 when I am writing this email). This kernel is also used in my domu. I can save a domu without any problem, but restoring it may need from 2 to 5 minutes, from a 1G checkpoint file (domu has 1GB RAM). There also errors in /var/log/xen/xend.log :
