Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile Setting up Install Process No package parted available. Nothing to do any ideas on what's

Hello, I just tried out XCP and I was surprised to see it looks pretty much like Xen from Citrix. Based on the RPM packages installed, I assume XCP is based on RHEL5. With that in mind, I have a few questions that I did not find an answer on the web... Perhaps I didn''t look in the right places, so if you know about any good documentations that I should read please share it :)

Hi all, i have a problem to execute Gnome GUI on a virtual machine on xcp 1.0.

Package: xcp-xapi Version: 1.3-15 Severity: normal My packages were initially installed from the deb repository at download.xensource.org. Eventually, I upgraded them to the debian repository ones.

Hi all! I am using XCP pool with 5 members. XCp version is 1.0.0 I want to upgrade my XCP to version XCp 1.1. I read that upgrading from 0.0.1 to 0.5 had some troubles including conflicts between different version of XCP (XCP 0.0.1 and XCP 0.5 conlicted each other in one pool). Does anybody did such upgrade? What troubles can I meet? :) _______________________________________________ Xen-users

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

I''m trying to work through the Virtual Machine Examples that are described on the wiki - http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/Command_Line_Interface >From my XCP platform, I''m simply trying to do a wget as follows: wget http://www.xen.org/files/XenCloud/Software/lenny.xva The connection on the XCP host closes after 1209 bytes and retries a number of times to no avail.

Hello, When trying to start VM I am getting the following error: # --- [root@xcp-dev01 ~]# xe vm-start uuid=f535e5bd-6540-3745-d494-14f776da85e5 Error code: INVALID_SOURCE Error parameters: Unable to access a required file in the specified repository: file:///tmp/cdrom-repo--2OF-Z/install.amd/xen/vmlinuz., , # --- I have used last xen server documentation to prepare the VM installation from

Hi guys, I am testing out some FC storage in my XCP environment but I''m a bit confused on the right way to proceed. XCP actually sees the cards "under hardware in xsconsole". I made a lv available to the XCP box I''m testing on but both fdisk -l and via the XCP cli and ui the lv isn''t there. As I understand it from the documents I''ve read, you

Well, that was a lot of alphabet soup acronyms :). I''ve just been thinking about the claim in a prior post that using the xe cli with XCP abnormally increases the XCP server load. The only way I could see this happening is to be running xe from the servers command line. I use xe extensively to do the grunt work of XCCS (Xen Cloud Control System). I don''t see the loading

Can somebody educate me as the differences between XCP-1.0 and XEN 4. From what I can see XCP-1.0 has XEN 3.4.2 So why would you not build XCP-1.0 with XEN 4.0 Regards David Moore moored@romtech.com.au J.P.

Hello, I am quite new on XCP. At first, i had a Xenserver server but i am looking for a full open source solution and of course I discovered XCP. Actually, i have one xenserver and one XCP server that I manage through Xencenter. I''m trying to P2V an existing ( old Mandriva ) server to XCP. I tried differents things, all without success. Boot on XCP disk to find a P2V option. ->

I''m looking to expose a(several) drive "/dev/sda" that is physically to the XCP host to a pv guest running locally. I know this would tie the VM, which lives in a remote SR, to this specific XCP host that this local disk. I''m not looking to create a VHD file on this local drive and use it as a disk in the VM. I''m looking to expose entire physical disks to

Hi All, Does anybody have any tips or suggestions for migrating from a CentOS + Xen setup and using cobbler/koan [1] for VM provisioning to an XCP setup using XCP templates (or similar) to provision VMs? cobbler/koan make use of kickstart, which It looks like XCP can do as well. Mainly, I am wondering if converting the cobbler profiles could be done automatically and reliably? Any comments,

Hello, I''ve launched my first guest installation on XCP and I would like to know how to see the installation process through VNC. On the XCP: # netstat -lnatp |grep vnc tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:5900 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 7867/vncterm tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:5901 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 8928/vncterm So, there is something listening for

I''ve just finished upgrading both of my test hosts from XCP 1.0 to XCP 1.1, and the pool master is fine and happy. The second host, however, isn''t. To be perfectly clear, I didn''t ''upgrade'' that one, but had installed something else in the interim, so I did a fresh install of XCP 1.1. Anyway when attempting to get it to join the pool, I get an error

Hi everyone, has anyone succeded to get something else than plain qwerty keyboard layout on XCP? I have a French layout keyboard and I can''t get the mapping to be ok in the VMs, weither it be linux PV or windows HVM. I first tried with openxencenter (very good software by the way), then with the xcp xapi debug web page applet, then with ssh port forwarding, and I always get the same

Dear list, I am battling with rather grave performance issues in the 42052 build of XCP 1.0. Specifically, this concerns disk IO both on the host and in the VMs. I have tested the connectivity to the NFS/iSCSI server that backs the whole platform (Nexenta, SSD ZIL/l2arc, striping over 9 5-disk zraid1), and from a clean Ubuntu install, I am able to saturate the network both over NFS and iSCSI
