Hi, I am trying to install Xen/Xenolinux v1.1 on my workstation which has 2 SCSI disks. The first disk has WinXP installed, and the second disk has Redhat 8.0. I copied the images into /boot and modified grub.conf accordingly: title Xen / XenoLinux 2.4.22 root (hd1,0) kernel /xen.gz dom0_mem=131072 ser_baud=115200 noht noreboot module /xenolinux.gz root=/dev/sdb2 ro

resend to larger group: which one is the right one? I''m going thru some merge hell and a need some newer PPC code from kernel.org. is it: http://xenbits.xensource.com/linux-2.6-xen.hg (worked on) --or-- http://xenbits.xensource.com/ext/linux-2.6-merge.hg (six weeks of nothing) there is also linux-2.6.rc-xen.hg, linux-2.6.tip-xen.hg, linux-2.6- patchqueue.hg the PPC team

Hi all I am in the process of upgrading my XEN servers from 2.4 to 2.6 kernels as I am having better results on 2.6. However one machine (the big daddy) refuses to boot a 2.6.9 xenolinux kernel. It''s an IBM eSeries xServer x205. I have selected what i think are the appropriate options in menuconfig but it refuses to boot into dom0. By refuse I mean it initialises the hypervisor,

Excuse me, what did you mean by "certainly wrong: you''re ... to make real physical partition hda1 visible to the domain"? Can we use real physical partition in vbd_list? And what the "cmdline_root" should be? Thanks. Xiaofang > vbd_list = [ (''phy:hda1'',''sda1'',''w''),

Hi, I have used lmbench to test the performance of Xenolinux (HVM) CPU: Intel (R) Core (TM)2 T7400@2.16GHz Memory size: 1GB NIC: Intel PCIe Gigabit LAN chip HD: Samsung 80GB/7200rpm/8M Dom0: 2.6.19-1.2911.6.5.fc6xen DomU: 2.6.20-1.2944.fc6 The context switch time seems saturated along with increasement of processes? e.g. size of processes 64kB N=number of process t=context switch time when

hi, I seem to have a problem with the Linux xen-network driver leaking skbs. This is probably my own fault, upon resumption after migration I call this: void network_resume(void) { struct net_device* dev = __dev_get_by_name("eth0"); MOD_DEC_USE_COUNT; network_open(dev); } -- which works fine. However, in network_open() the call to NETOP_RESET_RINGS seems to clear all the

Hello. I''ve downloaded and burned the Xen DemoCD 1.2. It boots fine, and generally seems to work well. However, when I try to create a domain via xc_dom_create.py I get an ImportError (from a python module I''m guessing). Problem is that it can''t open the libxc.so.1.2 shared object. And sure enough, it''s not there. libxc.so is in /usr/lib, but not

Hi all, I am running the current xen-unstable and had the following error message when trying to create domain1. # ./xenctl script -f/etc/xen-mynewdom Domain defaults: name XenoLinux size 98304 vifs 1 domainImage /boot/xenolinux.gz domainInitRD null rootDevice /dev/hda5 rootArgs rw usrDevice null NWIP

The system is Mandrake-9.1 Linux wih gcc-3.2.2. I am trying to compile xenolinux-2.4.24 (with vanilla sources from ftp.kernel.org for linux-2.4.24). The steps of mkbuildtree ARCH=xeno make menuconfig ARCH=xeno make dep produce no errors, but ARCH=xeno make bzImage results in following error messages. Any pointers will be appreciated. -ishwar --- gcc -D__KERNEL__

I know you Xen developers are beginning to hate me ;) but... While trying to compile 2.4.24 under DOM0, quickly after issuing ''make dep'' I got: Kernel panic: Failed mmu update: c015bf80, 4 I suspect this address probably isn''t to helpful but this is all I have. I am currently booted in 2.4.21-SuSE and compiling the 2.4.24 regarding another thread here. Regarding

Hi, While investigating why the Xen 1.2 Demo CD won''t boot on a particular laptop, I noticed the download image appears to be truncated. "isoinfo -d -i xendemo-1.2.iso" reports: Logical block size is: 2048 Volume size is: 294080 That would suggest the image size should be 294080 * 2048 = 602275840 bytes. However I only have 292376 * 2048 = 598786048 bytes. The web server

I''ve been recently testing the Xendemo CD and I can say that Xen is awesome. I''d like to start deploying it initially in some development/testing servers. However the limitation of the max memory of 800MB or so per virtual machine is a show stopper for many applications. Are there plans to raise the limit to something higher (like 2GB or so)? How difficult would it be?

Maybe this question is a little stupid, but please help me. I am a newbie to Xen. When I tried to create a new domain "domain 1", I followed the Yan-Ching CHU''s guide on :installing quick file systems for new domains in Xen 1.2". But when I do "xc_dom_create.py -Dvmid=1", Xen seems to start to boot with some normal bootup information, but right after several

Hi all, I have another problem with starting domainU (xenolinux). I took me pretty much quite some time and i can not figure out why starting a new domain is failing. I will really appreciate if somebody can help me with this error. The error I get when booting xen-domainU is: /======================= Red Hat nash version 4.1.18 starting Mounted /proc filesystem Mounting sysfs Creating /dev

The Xen boot option ''ser_baud=<baud>'' has been removed from the unstable tree. If you were still using this obsolete option then the effect is that you will get no serial output when you boot Xen, which may lead you to believe that there is a more serious problem. To fix this you must move to the new boot option: ''com1=<baud>,8n1'' -- Keir

Hi there, We're attempting to run an LVQ analysis over a cluster of machines via R and openMosix. R spawns several child processes simply by writing commands to several files and using system() to start a slave process. The processes migrate perfectly, and often finish with no reported errors, writing their results into respective files for the parent process to piece together.

Hi All, I''ve been looking through the code and list archives but haven''t found this yet... From dom0, how do you cause a virtual domain to gracefully shutdown? It seems like the machinery is there somewhere, because the hypervisor can do it to dom0... For reference, in UML you do this by putting this in /etc/inittab: ca:12345:ctrlaltdel:/sbin/shutdown -h now ...and then

Is there a particular reason for doing this unconditionally on both 32- and 64-bits in xenolinux? It would seem to me that this feature should be disabled at most in unprivileged kernels...
