Dear,Beg for your help. I am really puzzled with this problem.HVM domain can not boot up with Qcow incremental image(using command: qcow-create size incremental_file original_Qcow_img_file), but it can boot up with the original Qcow disk image file. When using Qcow incremental image, the guest qemu window would disappear before loading grub, and `xm list` can not find this guest domain.The VM

Hallo, I have an installed Windows 7 on one partition and running Debain Squeeze on the other. Both are 64 bit. I want to use Xen to run Windows as virtual guest from a physical disk. Once I get this working the Window will never be booted directly. When I try to create the virtual machine by "xm create -c win.xen" it hangs. The versions I use Xen 4.0.1-4 Kernel 2.6.32-5-xen-amd64

Hello, I''m running 6.26-2-xen-amd64 with xen-hypervisor-3.2-1-amd64. Now I try to pass through a controller card to WHS, at the moment without success because the card isn''t present in DomU. At the first moment I guess it''s a windows problem ;) so I''d tried to boot a Knoppix .iso but same problem there, the passed through device isn''t present in DomU.

When I try to use stubdom-dm in lieu of qemu-dm, the guest domain crashes almost immediately if I specify an emulated NIC (''vif='') in the guest configuration file. If I don''t specify a vif, it works fine. If I use the same configuration with qemu-dm instead of sutbdom-dm, it works fine. Is there some reason QEMU emulated networking doesn''t work with stub domains

I''ve been using Xen strictly for PV for a while now, but I recently upgraded to hardware capable of HVM domUs. I''m trying to get a really basic HVM instance going so I can get my hands around making them work, in anticipation of using one to run a BSD to act as a firewall for other domUs on the machine. (I like PF.) Also, I might need run windows at some point, I suppose.

Hi Everyone, I''m trying to get Xen to use a native DRBD device but it seems it will not create the virtual machine. It does not seem to like the DRBD device type, any ideas on what might be wrong? I''m pretty sure my xen config file is OK and the DRBD device looks fine too. Full details below. xm create centostest Using config file "./centostest".

Hi, I migrate Xen4.0 to XEN4.1, and found XEN4.1 performance is not as good as 4.0.2. xm shutdown takes longer time, control thru libvirt take longer time, and since I''m testing PCI/VGA passthru, the "createdevice: pci" also take around 5~8 seconds comparing to 1 second in XEN4.0.2. below is my configuration, do you have any suggestions to make the performance better?
