For iSCSI, have a look at iscsi-init at sourceforge. http://iscsi-init.sourceforge.net. Load it as a module in an initrd and it uses some kernel parameters and automatically configures the network and then

Just did a quick scan for that error message in the kernel source. Turns out it''s triggered in net/bridge/br_fdb.c:289. if (!is_valid_ether_addr(addr)) return -EADDRNOTAVAIL; Interestingly enough, it''s claiming that the mac addy isn''t any good! 8-( I''ll go add a printk line to that to see if I can determine what kind of data

FWIW, I assign my MAC addresses as "FE:FD:XX:00:YY:ZZ" Where: XX = what xen does to MAC addresses (00 in xen0, 01 in xenU) YY = vmid (unique across all physical servers) ZZ = interface number in xenU (00 = eth0, 01 = eth1) Works for me! Someone asked about trying to find a duplicate MAC address on a network - it''s pretty hard to do as the whole idea is that MAC addresses are

Hi, I have a question, If I start 2 or more guest linux, does the physical memory of code segment and readonly data segment be reused? What''s the relationship between the physical memory and the number of guest os that can create? xiaofeng ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal Use IT

Hi folks, I''m trying to use the atropos scheduler with Xen. Couple of questions: - the scheduling param *has* to be specified at boot time right, or does Xen allow changing the scheduling scheme at run time?? - xm help atropos gives a very vague message at best, perhaps we could make it more elaborate: xm atropos DOM SLICE PERIOD LATENCY XTRATIME o is DOM the vm ID or the vm NAME (as

Hi, Currently TLS wraparound segments are a problem in Xen, since the kernel needs to be protected by keeping the user space segments out of kernel space. A few weeks ago Roland, Jakub and myself brainstormed about this problem. One of the things that came up is that the positive (glibc private data) and -ve (TLS) data are not generally used at the same time. This lead to one of us (I

I rebooted xenU from console (dom2) and exited (ctr-]). xm list does not report 2 anymore yet I can log into 2 via console and it is running just fine. Is this a bug? I''ll pull/rebuild and see what happens..

Hello all. We recently purchased HP Proliant DL380 G7 server and also a HP Lefthand P4500 G2 24TB iSCSI box. The server itself has Quad Ethernet based on the BCM5709 Chipset from Broadcom (NetXtreme II). My main question is about iSCSI offload mechanism, as iSCSI itself is pretty new to me but I have gotten a good hold on it tho. I have managed to setup and configured our Lefthand box into

Hi, Thanks to everyone involved in the Xen project. I think it is great and can''t wait to get my hands dirty with it. In the meantime, I cannot boot Dom0 on an ibm x335 and I am not sure what the problem is. Any insights are welcome. Here is what my grub.conf file looks like: title Fedora Core (2.6.8-1.521) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.8-1.521 ro root=/dev/sda9

Dear list, I''m trying to get Xen working on a P3-600E with 320 MB RAM. (256+64) It has suse linux 9.1 installed on it, and I tried to get xen running with both the binary download from the xen pages and the suse xen packages mentioned on this list some days ago. Both ''install packages/kernels'' lead to the same error: (XEN) Not enough memory for DOM0 memory

Just to error test my own thinking here, there seems to be the following options for remote graphical access to a running domian vm. Besides the normal network service via a port and a raw console, the options are straight X, VNC, and XN. X - supports a single X window running on a local XServer, tied to a single process on the remote system. No remote desktop VNC - comes in two flavors of

I started to have problems similar to ones described in the past on this list but could not find any kind of resolution. I did an lsmod, a mount command, and for fun, did an strace on shutdown to see where it is hanging, and an ltrace as well. Any thoughts?

As promised, here''s what I did to get iSCSI root running under XenU under Debian 3.1 (Sarge): Be running linux 2.6 under XenU. Build XenU with SCSI disk support (I did them as modules) Get linux-iscsi 4.0.1.8 from http://sourceforge.net/projects/linux-iscsi/ Build it according to the instructions there (i found it a bit tricky) and install under your XenU Get iscsi-init 4.0.1 from

hello, I''m booting xen on iTuner over serial console. It seems to me that it is bug that unless I explictly specify "console=com1" I get unhelpfull message "Unknown Interrupt" and halt (infinite loop). sh-2.05b# /sbin/kexec -e Starting new kernel Unknown interrupt adding "console=com1" fixes this problem for me so I doubt it I''m going to look

Hello, please can someone on the list point me to the right direction how to build xen0 and xenU kernels for linux-2.6.27-xen.hg?

Hi, I''ve two SCSI disks attached to my system (Ubuntu Dapper). One is the system disk. The other one should be used for the guest images. My problem now is that I cannot mount /dev/sdb1 (ext3 fs) when booted with a xen0 kernel (2.6.12-xen0 as well as 2.6.16-xen0). Booting the normal Dapper kernel (2.6.15 no xen support) the disk mounts fine. strace mount /dev/sdb1 /images Shows:

Hello, I would like to know if initrd is here to stay, now that klibc and initramfs are ready. As the multipath-tools maintainer, I'm facing the choice to 1) put the multipath configuration tool in the initrd * dynamic binary is possible * storage hba drivers as modules loaded * no klibc limitations (no mntent for libsysfs ...) 2) put the multipath configuration tool in the initramfs *
