When start a domU through xl create. The domU associated ip in the configuration file is not recorded in the xenstore. For this reason vif-common.sh antispoof scripts fails. *xl create * /usr/bin/xenstore-ls /local/domain/0/backend/vif/5/0 frontend = "/local/domain/5/device/vif/0" frontend-id = "5" online = "1" state = "4" script =

At least from the ''xm'' commands'' interface, it looks like domU''s just disappear after an ''xm destroy'', which I''ve been using to cut turn off the virtual power switches of domU''s. Is this by design? I''m trying to think of a good way to identify a domU throughout its lifecycle, which for me goes all the way from

Hi, I encountered a problem while porting Solaris as a guest OS on Xen. The problem I found is that when frontend vbd driver get unloaded, it will close the vbd interface by changing the state to XenbusStateClosed. This appears to cause the dom0 hotplug scripts to remove the vbd entry from xenstore for the domU guest, preventing the vbd from being re-attached. So, my questions are: + This

I've just done a fresh lenny amd64 install, and taken the xm-debian.cfg example: http://people.debian.org/~joeyh/d-i/images/daily/netboot/xen/xm-debian.cfg and built a 32 bit lenny inside a 64 bit lenny dom0 # xm create -c xm-th2.cfg install=true install-installer=http://people.debian.org/~joeyh/d-i/images/daily/ When I try to boot the domU: # xm create -c xm-debian.cfg it

Hey, I am new to Xen. Recently I have some problems about using xenstore to setup communication between Dom 0 and Dom U. I have successfully installed Xen on Centos 6 and launch a Dom U with Centos 5. "xm" and "virsh" works fine on my machine. I can also use comments for xenstore to access values in Dom 0, such as xenstore-list, xenstore-read, and xenstore-write. But I

I''ve seen some people asking why exposing xenstore attributes via sysfs could be useful. Here''s why I would really like to see such a patch make it into Xen: I''ve been working on getting domU''s to know enough about themselves to be manageable. I require a 128-bit UUID for each domU, and I require that each domU be able to determine its own UUID in userspace.

The following patch adds a section for SHUTDOWN OPTIONS for the xmdomain.cfg man page. It documents the new set of options introduced over the last few weeks.

Hi, I'm installing Debian as a Xen Guest on a non-Debian Xen host.

Hi all, I''d like to know if it''s possible to have more verbose output when running a block-prefix script. Other than xend.log. To be more specific I''d like to use bash -x to see why I''m running into the following error: > # xm create -c host.cfg > Using config file "host.cfg". > aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff > Error: Device 51712 (vbd) could not be

I have been looking at the docs, but can't seem to find a way to add a machine to the xenstore so it shows up in 'xm list' even when it is shutdown. I can swear that there was a way to do this and the machine would appear in /var/lib/xen/xend-db/domains/<uuid> Was this feature removed in the upstram implementation? -Ross

I just installed xen-linux-system-2.6.26-1-xen-amd64 2.6.26-7 on a freshly installed Debian Lenny AMD64 system, and when I create a Debian Lenny DomU with xen-tools I cannot attach to a console nor log in with SSH. When running # xm create -c test.cfg the system starts booting, but it seems to "freeze" after the kernel has booted. Googling a bit, shows that I seem to have the problem

I attempted to install Ubuntu 10.04 as a domU on my CentOS dom0. The process I used was: wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/xen/xm-debian.cfg Edited the config file to use the proper logical volume for its install, and stepped through the install, installed GRUB to the MBR, and all seemed well. However, upon xm create -c NAME

I have a .cfg configuration file for a xen virtual machine. I need to convert it in xml format to use with libvirt. So I run virsh domxml-from-native xen-xm backupsrv.cfg but I have an error: error: Unknown failure. How can I investigate about the error?

I''m looking at building a xenstore-based watchdog, as described at http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2005-07/msg00597.html However, being somewhat new to xenstore, I''d appreciate some pointers. - What portions of the xenstore namespace should I use? I''m looking for at least two settings writable by the DomUs: A flag to enable/disable the watchdog
