I have a Windows 2000 domU running in an LVM partition. I need to move it to another host, but none of my other xen servers have lvm or free space to create an lvm. So I''d like to convert it to a sparse img file. The file system in the domU is ntfs. Can anyone suggest how to do this?

When I try to virt-install a PV instance of F11, I''m getting an ''invalid kernel'' message, as if it''s not a Xen kernel. I have tried both the i386 and x86_64 versions. Is there any weirdness with this distro that I''m not aware of?

Hi All, I am trying to attach floppy virtual image to Windows domU. Either it is not attaching or domU is not showing floppy drive? domU config: 1. disk = [ ''file:/root/xenwin.img,hda,w'', ''file:/opt/Windows-Xp.iso,hdc:cdrom,r'', ''file:/root/win-boot.img,fd:floppy,r'' ] boot = "cda" In above format the window domU is booting but

I have installed the 210 gplpv (debug), when I try to update them with current gplpv I get a BSOD even so when I try to uninstall them. Now I have made a bootentry that specifies NOGPLPV, what gives me a bootable system after such a crash, I found (uninstalling the leftover driver packages after getting bsod during uninstall of the main package) that uninstalling the net driver leads to bsod. Now

Attempting to install a fully virtualized instance of Windows 2003 fails on CentOS 5.2 x86_64 with xen-3.0.3-64.el5.

Hi, I have uploaded a new set of rebased openSUSE dom0 xen patches and Gentoo ebuild for 2.6.31 to http://code.google.com/p/gentoo-xen-kernel/downloads/list, Jan Beulich recently identified the cause of the null pointer crash and other stability problems that affected previous versions and with the necessary fixes applied the kernel has run for 2+ days with no issues at all, I think you will find

Hi, I''m trying to convert two ext4 FS to btrfs, but I''m surprised by the time needed to do that conversion. The first FS is on a 500GiB block device, and btrfs-convert is running since more than 48h : root 1978 25.6 47.7 748308 732556 ? D Feb18 944:44 btrfs-convert /dev/vg-backup/backup The second is on a 340GiB block device, and the processing time is similar

Hi, I have a number of games which have multiple install CD's which I have in ISO format (Need for Speed: Underground 2, Sim City: Deluxe and a few others). When I attempt to install the game I use the following command to Mount the game CD: mount '/home/user/gamefolder/gameimage.iso' /mnt/iso1/ -t iso9660 -o ro,loop=/dev/loop0 This mounts the Game Image to /mnt/iso and from there I

We have a 10Gbps connection to our server so I need to be able to create VMs using the faster e1000 nics instead of the default Realtek 100Mbps ones but I''m not sure how to go about it. Is there a walkthrough or "howto" or can someone point me at some simple instructions? I''m using xen-3.0.3-105.el5_5.5 and Centos 5.5 kernel 2.6.18-194.32.1.el5.centos.plusxen VMs are

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. The guest startup breaks down with the error message: Error starting domain: POST operation failed: xend_post: error from xen daemon: (xend.err "Error creating domain: Boot loader didn''t return any

Hi, I''m using xen on two-node redhat cluster (CVS devel version), using lvm as storage backend. redhat cluster is used to synchronize LVM metadata (using clvmd) and as storage for domain configs and dom-U kernels (with gfs). Latest version of redhat cluster works with xen-2.0.4, but not with xen-2.0-testing. ccsd failed to start on 2.0-testing. Anyone knows what the problem is? I

Hi , Can any one please let me know how to capture all the boot messages of the Guest OS into a text file? I do xm create -c /etc/xen/hvm.cfg to boot the guest OS.

Hi, dom0: Debian Lenny 2.6.26-2-xen-amd64, domU: same. Xen 3.2-1 After resizing a LV on dom0, Xen is not reporting the new extended size to the PV domU even though dom0 is well aware of the new size. I''ve rebooted domU (not dom0 yet as that''s running a lot of other domU''s). The LV I tried to resize is encrypted. Resizing unencrypted volumes works as expected. dom0:~#

Hi Everyone, In my HVM guest''s config file, I have given my guest 3 interface. I have called them fw1, fw2 and fw3. I have joined each interface to a bridge on the Dom0. This does appear when I do a "brctl show". However, there are 3 other interfaces also added called tapx.0,tapx.1 and tapx.2 (Where x is the domain ID for the guest). Furthermore, I am only able to run

Hi all, I installed a paravirt CentOS 5.4 domU on a CentOS 5.4 dom0 environment. I compiled the domU kernel with framebuff console. But I couldn’t using VNC to connect to the domU console. The kernel boot message could print on the vnc console. But after the boot process, the console appears on the text console in dom0 again. The configfile is as follows: vfb = [

Hi. I need more space on my domU server, so i create a file image to attach it to the domU. But when i load that image in the domU, show a size very different to the create. I create the file with this command dd if=/dev/zero of=/xen/domains/SRV03/opt-disk.img bs=1024k seek=30720 count=30720 (The idea is create an image disk with 30GB, but when i check the disk on the domU show 64GB.)

Hi! With 3.2-rc4 (probably earlier), Ext4 seems to remember what areas it trimmed: merkaba:~> fstrim -v /boot /boot: 224657408 bytes were trimmed merkaba:~> fstrim -v /boot /boot: 0 bytes were trimmed But BTRFS does not: merkaba:~> fstrim -v / /: 4431613952 bytes were trimmed merkaba:~> fstrim -v / /: 4341846016 bytes were trimmed Is it planned to add this feature to BTRFS
