similar to: [XCP] Network confusion

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

Hello mailing list! I have been working with XCP a little bit, and I have the impression that this distro is insecure. First, it does not look like update repositories are enabled inside /etc/yum.repos.d, although I''m from an apt background so I may be misinterpreting that. Where will my security updates come from? Next, it appears that the root password hash is directly stored inside

Hi, I am using XenServer5.6 FP1 GA release with openvswitch as network backend. When I create VM through xapi, "apache.xmlrpc.XmlRpcException: I/O error" happens very frequently. At meanwhile my xencenter lost connection to hosts. Another thing is when I tried to kill VMs from xencenter, it complains "Internal error:Sys_error("Thread.create: Cannot allocate

One of the issues I''ve had using XenServer in a multitenant environment is the requirement for the VMs to have xentools installed as it causes significant issues when upgrading the VM OS or the pool from one version of XenServer (XCP) to another. Having to touch hundreds VMs (by hand) after an upgrade just doesn''t scale nor is delegating the task to VM owners an option.

*Hi all,* *I am very new to XCP and I have some questions:* *1. can i use Xencenter to manage XCP host?* *2.**I saw the XCP 1.5 feature:Open vSwitch is now the default networking stack. **does that mean i can create **cross-server private network and **virtual networking policies with vswitch controller? where i can get this tool?* * * *Thanks in advance[?], * *Heuye* * * * *

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

Hi all, I''ve got XCP 1.0 up and running nicely and would like to use it in production. However I''m struggling with the concept of bandwidth management. It seems like such a common problem that everyone must have, but I can''t find any clear direction in which to go. The dedicated host I am using (Hetzner) gives me a 5TB monthly bandwidth quota which needs to be shared

Dear all, How to make XCP cannot management by XenCenter? We have an environment about 10 XCP host, and provide about 50 vm for users, We notice that some users want to use XenCenter to connect the XCP host, even they don’t have password, so we want to make XCP cannot use XenCenter and only for console management, is it possible? Sorry for the strange question,

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

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?

New build with Ubuntu 13.04 and Xen 4.2. Installed XCP-XAPI as the plan was to use XenCenter to manage the installation. I pretty much followed this guide here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Setting%20up%20Xen%20and%20XAPI%20(XenAPI)%20on%20Ubuntu%20Server%2012.04%20LTS%20and%20Managing%20it%20With%20Citrix%20XenCenter%20or%20OpenXenManager With a few changes for things that have been fixed

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 everyone, I have XCP installed on a machine, with a guest OS running windows 7. Is there a way to login locally on the host machine itself (as opposed to using the console view in XenCenter?). The reason I am asking is that I am trying to look at interactions between Xen and graphics cards, and I want to make sure that the graphics card is being used ( as opposed to rendering through RDP).

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

XCP Users: As many of you are aware, there are several open source products available for everyone to use when working with XCP. I would like to get some feedback on the various tools to get a feeling on how people are using XCP and these tools. Here are the tools that I am aware of (please respond if you are using another tool): * OpenXenManager -

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. Last line seems interesting. However tapdisk2

I am able to start kick off windows/linux installs on a new vm but then find the installation can''t read from the dvd-rom....xe cd-list reports the dvd-rom as scsi? I am using xcp 1 beta and xencenter fp1. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Chris _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com

Dear Debian maintainer, The Debian internationalisation team and the Debian English localisation team will soon begin the review of the debconf templates used in xen-api. This review takes place for all packages that use debconf to interact with users and its aims are: - to improve the use of English in all debconf templates; - to make the wording of debconf templates more consistent; - to
