similar to: XCP - xenserver tools required?

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

Ive got XCP 1.1 on 2 blades and setup a pool master, then shared the SR all seems fine, Id like to manage it with XenServer Web Self, though its throwing an error Unsupported version of Citrix XenServer detected. Expected version: 5.6; Detected version: 1.1 wasnt there a trick to change it and fake it to be correct?? _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list

Hi, I installed two linux VMs in XenServer 6.0, one is CentOS 5.5 and the other is Ubuntu 10.04, both of which are HVMs. I install xenserver tools many times and the packages are installed, but XenCenter keeps telling me that "Xenserver tools is not installed". Are xenserver tools of linux intended only for PV vm? I am not familiar with xenserver and need help.Thanks! Best Regards,

Good afternoon, The subject practically is saying what I''m trying to ask but... does anyone tried FreeBSD 8.2 or similar under Cytrix Xenserver or XenCloud?. I have been doing some benchmarks and seems to perform pretty nice... and seems to be stable too; the only thing would be nice to be available for FreeBSD at Xenserver/Xencloud would be the Xenserver/Xencloud''s

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 list, I have recently migrated to XCP from Vmware Server 2 and have run into issues importing the VM''s Following citrix''s guide I tried using XenCenter to do the import directly on the vmdk files this resulted in XenCenter logging this error: "Failed to import. ---> System.Exception: Failed to import virtual disk file. ---> System.Xml.XmlException: Root element

Hello, I am using XCP 1.0 and am accessing it with XenCenter. I have three NIC''s and I have bonded two of them through the XenCenter frontend. I then create a VLAN using XenCenter and attach it to the bond0. I create a VM and create its NIC to use VLAN 10, which it does and when the VM boots the NIC shows Active inside of XenCenter. When I look at the XCP host it shows VLAN 10 as an

Hello, I hope to be in the right list. my question is the following. I can''t seem to get multipathing configure on XCP 1.6. In XenCenter I was able to enable "Multipath" however, in the LUN under general tab I see " multipath 1 of 1 active", the the CLI I do the following command xe --m node session it list only one session. Can someone help me please? Thanks in

Hi, I am a newb to XCP and somewhat to Linux. I set up XCP on a test machine and used xe to configure a couple of VMs. The VMs are working fine but if I deploy XCP with only xe to manage machines, the others here will want my head on a plate. I set up a Fedora client on a different machine and installed Virtual Machine Manager. When trying to connect via SSH, I get an error that says

Hi All, I tried again with XAPI on Debian last night and this time things went far smoother... I managed to boot into the Xen kernel, xe is working and the XAPI daemon appears to be running. However, I am having trouble connecting to XAPI from XenCenter... it just says the connection was refused without any meaningful errors and nothing in the logs on either side. I can ping the Xen machine from

Hello all, I have found the commands for enabling this feature but is there any additional documentation that is specific to XCP 1.0? Such as monitoring current usage (is it doing anything), maybe even a graph in xencenter that shows trends of usage? Found on http://docs.vmd.citrix.com/XenServer/5.6.0fp1/1.0/en_gb/installation.html xe host-disable host=<*hostname*> localsr=`xe sr-list

Hi all- I''ve been working with XenServer for years but have decided to build a home server running the latest version of Xen to do GPU pass through to a Win 7 x64 Media Center. What is the best dom0 OS to install to enable this? I''ve seen lots of people using Debian Squeeze, but I wonder why that is being chosen rather than say Ubuntu 12.04 which has a much newer stock kernel?

Hello, I am trying/evaluating XCP to manage our virtualization servers. Now, I have installed it in a test server and as far as I can see, it is very similar to XenServer, but I can''t manage it with XenCenter graphical console. Is there any GUI for XCP? I could connect with OpenXenCenter, but it still isn''t mature to be useful. Or do I have to use with xe commands? --

Hi, It''s been forever and a day since I last posted here, mainly because I haven''t touched Xen in a few years now due to job changes... But now I''ve been handed a project to work with XenServer, Citrix''s commercial grade Xen. So, I wanted to ask if there were any people here with experience using XenServer, XenCenter and so on, or if you knew of a better list

Hi, I''ve been trying to use E5520 and X5650 together in an heterogeneous pool without success. I know the combination is not on the official XenServer supported list (http://hcl.xensource.com/CPUPoolsList.aspx), but I thought it would be possible to set the mask anyway and see for myself if the combination works… My problem is that the mask doesn''t "stick" after a

I've been using XenServer / XCP (with the "xe" toolset) for a number of years for hosting servers used for development and free software projects and I'm now looking at migrating all those environments to libvirt / KVM. I had a look at the wiki[1] already and didn't see XenServer mentioned there. Could anybody help comment on or explain a few things: - comparison between

Hello, I am a system manager of a datacenter. Is this moment, we about 30-40 xen servers running 2 or 3 domUs each of them. We are now using (standalone) xen over debian lenny. We manage each xen server independently, but we are looking for a central management console. At this moment, I have the doubt about using citrix xenserver (the free edition) or XCP. I didn''t know much

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
