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

I''ve just been playing with XenSource and Kronos packages, but the fast cloning ability from XenServer doesn''t appear to be available. Where does this come from exactly, is it something built into Xen or is there a component of XenServer that''s needed to handle it? I was hoping to use Xen on Debian with my web app controlling it using either XAPI or Libvirt, but I

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.

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

Ive got XCP 1.1 on 2 blades and setup a pool master, then shared the SR all seems fine, Id like to manage it with XenServer Web Self, though its throwing an error Unsupported version of Citrix XenServer detected. Expected version: 5.6; Detected version: 1.1 wasnt there a trick to change it and fake it to be correct?? _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list

I think the title says it all :) I got far enough along in the Xen documentation that the documentation recommended me to start using XenCenter to manage the server. Why am I being asked by XenCenter to register my XCP 1.0 server? I know it''s similar, but it''s not a Citrix XenServer... ;) >From what I can gather, XCP is open source freeware...correct me if I''m

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, 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

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.

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

The Kronos page: http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Project_Kronos includes these two entries: A couple of network-related notes + XAPI expects to run in a clean environment, and listens on ports 80 and 443. If you''re running anything else on these ports (typically Apache/Apache2), then you''re likely to have problems. + There is a known bug (which needs to be fixed)

I have Kronos setup fine. I have installed open-iscsi and setup the system as an initiator. However, I cannot seem to get xapi to allow me to setup the target as an SR. I was trying to use XenCenter but go nowhere. So I tried adding it manually and here is what I got: xe sr-create host-uuid=466aac75-c86a-496f-90e8-2a9925a9e9f7 content-type=user \ > name-label="Shared LVM over iSCSI

Hello, I am using XCP 1.0 and am accessing it with XenCenter. I have three NIC''s and I have bonded two of them through the XenCenter frontend. I then create a VLAN using XenCenter and attach it to the bond0. I create a VM and create its NIC to use VLAN 10, which it does and when the VM boots the NIC shows Active inside of XenCenter. When I look at the XCP host it shows VLAN 10 as an

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

I''m attempting to convert a CentOs 5.6 x64 machine from Xen (Open Source) to Citrix XenServer and I am having some trouble towards the final stages. I need to take the .XVA created by XVA.PY and use XenConvert to manipulate this into another file format (OVF). Here''s the process I use: 1. Poweroff the VM 2. Create a new disk in 3 times the size of the primary 3. Sign in to

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,

Package: xcp-xapi Version: 1.3.2-6 Severity: minor Tags: upstream If xe pif-configure-ip called twice with different IP, it did not remove old IP from interface (but didn't store both addresses in database).
