similar to: potential bug in "xm atropos" implementation

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 everyone, This is for Xen 2.0.3. I''m really interested in the functionality of atropos (enforcing CPU partitioning in a non work-conserving fashion). As I had reported earlier, atropos seemed broken in 2.0. It still seems broken now: $ xm list Name Id Mem(MB) CPU State Time(s) Console Domain-0 0 123 0 r---- 49.1 vm1 1 47

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.. (this is xen-2.0, cset 1.1321.1.1, rh7.3 dom0/dom1) ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on

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

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

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

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

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

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

Hi everyone, I''m trying to convert some Xen HVM images to run on VMware ESX, unsuccessfully thus far. I believe the problem is that ESX by default wants the VMs to use SCSI virtual disks, but my HVM VMs are configured to use IDE virtual disks. If you have any experience with this sort of thing, please get in touch. Thanks! Diwaker -- http://floatingsun.net/

Hi list, I''m using xen 3.0.0 and wonder how to obtain the 6 DOMU scheduling parameters from my DOM0 domain. Sort opposite of the sched-sedf xm sub-command Can someone help me ?

Hi, I''m trying to create a new gallery layout. I did the following: o create plugin/foobar.rb in my base directory. o copy plugins/gallerylayouters/default.rb in foobar.rb and make appropriate modifications. For simplicity, lets say my class looks thus: require ''webgen/plugins/gallerylayouters/default'' module GalleryLayouters class Foobar <

I would have sworn that someone on the list had a way to Xenify a stock RH kernel but I was not able to dig it up on the archives. If this does not exist I am sure it would be a nice addition to Xen to be able to patch and build some kernels that are compatable with some of the popular distributions. -- Alvin Starr || voice: (416)585-9971 Interlink Connectivity ||

Hi everyone, I''m doing some networking experiments over high BDP topologies. Right now the configuration is quite simple -- two Xen boxes connected via a dummynet router. The dummynet router is set to limit bandwidth to 500Mbps and simulate an RTT of 80ms. I''m using the following sysctl values: net.ipv4.tcp_rmem = 4096 87380 4194304 net.ipv4.tcp_wmem = 4096

Hi, I have installed Xen on Linux 2.6.11.10 <http://2.6.11.10> and i am trying to do Asynchronous Direct IO on SAS drives. The application which does the asynchronous direct io on SAS drive is running on Domain 0. Actually the IOPs what i get for a 512Bytes IO size is 67, but if i do the same operation on Linux 2.6.11.10 <http://2.6.11.10> native kernel, i get 267 IOPs.Cananyone

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
