Hi, I try to start Solaris10 HVM DomU on SNV_93 dom0 running amd athlon x2 and 8gb ram. When I try to create a domU i get: bash-3.2# virt-install -n sol10 --hvm -r 1024 --vnc -f /dev/zvol/dsk/rpool/sol10 -c /rpool/pub/sol-10-u5-ga-x86-dvd.iso Starting install... virDomainCreateLinux() failed POST operation failed: (xend.err ''Device 0 (vif) could not be connected.

Hi list, I am running a virtualized server. Dom0 uses Xen 3.2.1 with Debian Etch and a custom kernel 2.6.21 created by my webhosting company. I install my domU using debootstrap for a Debian Etch with 2.6.18-6-xen-amd64 kernel. Everything works well except the fact that once the VM is started I cannot "xm console" into it. It only works while it is booting and while it is shutting

I'm using virt-v2v (0.8.3 currently) on EL6 to convert Xen guests to KVM. I see how virt-v2v converts any existing references to xvc0 and hvc0 serial console devices in /etc/inittab, /etc/securetty, and grub.conf. However, my Xen DomU grub.conf's don't have any mention of console= on the kernel lines, because the Xen DomU kernel defaults to using the correct xvc0 console. As a

All: I''m currently using the older Python-based Xen tools on a cluster of machines, but we''re looking to transition to XCP as the platform of choice for our applications. However, I''ve run into one issue that''s sort of a blocker: paravirtual Linux domUs boot and run, but the console device is strangely broken. Most of the output reaches the connected user (some

Hello, I am trying to install Centos on sata ahci. The installer first waits few minutes while loading ahci module. Then, the installer cannot detect any disk during the partitioning phase. What might be the problem? I have switched to IDE in bios and it still is the same. Best regards, mjb

This is the patch from Amos Waterland for the xenconsole to use /dev/xvc0 instead of taking over ttys. I''ve fixed a few places which needed to check for XVC mode in addition to serial mode. Also, until LANANA responds with an official minor, I''ve adjusted it to use char 250/187 (in the experimental range) as opposed to 204/187 Signed-off-by: Jeremy Katz

Hi all, Centos 5.6 doesn't detect any disks connected to an Adaptec 6405 RAID Controller. The hardware isn't brand new to the market, so what might be the issue here? It seems, that the driver is missing for that particular card. All best, mjb

Hi Friends, I just installed xen/dom0 on my amd64 quad core phenom processor. dom0 boot up was successfull.

Hello, I have Xen running on an Ubuntu 8.04 LTS machine. This machine has been in production for a few months now. Up until recently, all the DomU machines have also been Ubuntu 8.04 machines. Recently, I tried creating a Debian Lenny machine. I use xen tools to create the DomU machines. Upon completion of creating the DomU with xen tools, I start the DomU using the [sanitized] command

This change updates a guest which uses Xen's xvc0 to use ttyS0 instead. In a related change, it also makes a console a 'standard device' will always be configured. --- lib/Sys/VirtV2V/Converter.pm | 5 +++- lib/Sys/VirtV2V/Converter/Linux.pm | 46 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 50 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git

I''m running Xen 3.2 on Debian 5.0 (Lenny) and am having trouble booting up a Debian Etch DomU. It hangs at the end when it says "Starting periodic command scheduler: cron." It''s just completely frozen. At one point I set it sit for a few hours and got back into the console and it said something about "time went backwards" but I used the

Hello xen-users ! I am coming for help concerning the just released 4.0 version. Install has worked rather well on my Debian Lenny. I have just had a few bugs for which I have found the answer looking around on this list. I have created a Debian Lenny domU which boots up just fine.

Hi, I have already set up a VM that can access the network using the NAT mode. The problem I have is that I''d like to create another VM that also has access to the network.

Actually it starts, but when I want to "xm console" into it I get the following error message: "xenconsole: Could not

Hello everybody! My server with Ubuntu Hardy Heron x64 with Xen 3.2 hangs on when booting at "Starting local boot scripts (/etc/rc.local)".
