I''m going to set up a PVM on xen-3.3.1 debian-amd64. I need advices about the best methods to install a fresh debian on it (i.e. how to choose the kernel for pvm) . I''ve installed xen from sources and only have one xen kernel in /boot which I''m using for dom0; should I use the same kernel for domUs? There is any problem on use vcpus=2; the other vm is an hvm running

Package: xen-utils-common Version: 4.0.0-1 Severity: normal This is an offshoot of Bug#588888, but is really a separate issue. It appears that with hvmloader, the disk device names presented to the vm must by from a specific set that hvmloader knows how to emulate. Names like hd[a-c] and sd[a-c] work, but sr0 does not. While this makes sense, when you think about what hvmloader is doing, it is

Hi, win-xp won't boot after installation. The CD is needed to boot from. How can I convince win-xp to boot? That's what I did: ================== I installed win-xp guest on debian squeeze: # virt-install --connect qemu:///system --name winxp-prof --ram 1024 \ --disk path=/dev/vg-levo/winxp-kvm,size=10 \ --network bridge:br0 --vnc --os-variant winxp --cdrom /dev/sr0

You''re right scout the last line. Out looks like xapi is waiting on tapdisk to plug a key into xenstore. Perhaps a udev rule problem? Perhaps someone who knows more about tapdisk than I well be able to diagnose this tomorrow. Mike Sent from Samsung tablet Sébastien RICCIO <sr@swisscenter.com> wrote: Of course, here it is attached.

Has anyone experimented with installing XCP from a USB thumb drive? Is it possible? How was the installation media installed to the USB thumb drive (e.g., dd)?

Hi: Sorry for the basic NOOB question but I managed to create a VM but now I am stuck. On page 26 of the XCP Virtual Machine Installation Guide it says "VNC and perform the OS installation". I tried everything I could find (listed below) but I am stuck. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Here are two questions whose answers would really help: 1.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I created a bootable linux cd and always had to enter the root device (cd drive) as kernel parameter at the syslinux prompt. (i.e. linux root=/dev/hdc) I could not set a fixed root device as this cd should be bootable on other systems with cd drive as /dev/hdd or something different, too. So my question is, is there a way of letting syslinux

Hi, Currently i''m going through the source codes of tools/blktap2. I need to find-out where blktap2 calls 1. mem_share_nominate() 2. mem_sharing_share_page() functions to do the memory sharing on HVM guests. Can someone please provide me some guidance on blktap2 driver. Thanks, Harshan _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list

Dear All I tried to mount an external cdrom on my CentOS 5 server but un-successful . I attached the device to my USB port and then the followings have been added to my /dev folder : "cdrom -> scd0 cdrom-sr0 -> scd0 cdrw -> scd0 cdrw-sr0 -> scd0 cdwriter -> scd0 cdwriter-sr0 -> scd0" To this end , I tried to mount it as the followings (but it didn't get through) :

List, I was under the impression that I could restart libvirtd without it destroying my VMs, but am not finding that to be true. When I killall libvirtd then my VM's keep running, but then when I start libvirtd it calls qemuDomainObjEndJob:1542 : Stopping job: modify (async=none vm=0x7fb8cc0d8510 name=test) and my domain gets whacked. Any way to disable this behavior? Also, while I'm

CentOS-6.9 I am trying to verify a locally created dvd. I am using sha256sum in this fashion: sha256sum /dev/sr0 Which gave this result: sha256sum: /dev/sr0: Input/output error So I tried this: sha256sum /dev/cdrom Which, after some time, also produces: sha256sum: /dev/cdrom: Input/output error What does this mean and how do I fix it? -- *** e-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel

Hi list, Dave Scott has been working on a prototype of XenServer's Xapi running on stock CentOS 6.4 x86_64, with libvirt and ceph integration. He plans to demo this at the CentOS dojo in Aldershot next week. We'll be publishing the RPMs for this in a public Yum repo, and we would really like for these RPMs to eventually live in the xen-c6 repo. I was wondering what are the steps for

Package: xcp-storage-managers Version: 0.1.1-2ubuntu1 Severity: normal This bug prevents CDROM VDIs from being hotplugged into guest VMs. The issue is that the NFS ISO SR configures the ISO VDIs to be 'file' types, which it should configure them to by 'phy' types. This breaks on Debian's Xen because the Debian hotplug scripts are more robuse than the ones on XenServer, and

I am experimenting with KVM and I wish to create a virtual machine image in a logical volume. I can create the new lv without problem but when I go to format its file system then I get these warnings: Warning: WARNING: the kernel failed to re-read the partition table on /dev/sda (Device or resource busy). As a result, it may not reflect all of your changes until after reboot. Warning: Unable to

I have a couple computers running 2.6.38 (Ubuntu Natty 2.6.38-8-generic), and on both of them "btrfs device scan" comes back with nothing other than "failed to read /dev/sr0" One computer has a btrfs RAID-1 volume, and the other has two separate btrfs filesystems. The results are the same whether the filesystems are mounted or not. Why is "btrfs device scan" not

Hey guys, Thanks a lot for the CentOS 6 distro. I am having trouble burning the i386 dvds. I tried on a RHEL 6 deskop and also a CentOS 5 laptop. The command I am running on both systems is this: growisofs -dvd-compat -speed=4 -Z /dev/sr0=/home/gsgatlin/CentOS-6.0-i386-bin-DVD/CentOS-6.0-i386-bin-DVD.iso The error I am seeing is: :-( /dev/sr0: 2295104 blocks are free, 2297586 to be written!
