Hi Everyone, I''m trying to get Xen to use a native DRBD device but it seems it will not create the virtual machine. It does not seem to like the DRBD device type, any ideas on what might be wrong? I''m pretty sure my xen config file is OK and the DRBD device looks fine too. Full details below. xm create centostest Using config file "./centostest".

Hello everyone, I grabbed xen-3.3.1 sources from the Mercurial repository (xen-3.3-testing.hg, changeset 475:1cf755387728, from Oct. 23, 2008) and built Xen from these sources on a 32-core (8 quad core Barcelona CPUs) SunFire machine, running an Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardyy Heron) distribution. Everything seemed to be going OK until I booted an HVM (also Ubuntu 8.04) domain. That domain boots normally but

Hi folks I deploy a two Dell PowerEdge T300 to test Virtualization with kvm+drbd+heartbaet. The KVM drbd and heartbeat work properly. However, I have doubt!! When the primary node has down, the secondary node start the VM that has original running on primary node... So, this required a full stop of hole system... This is not we wish here...

Hello, We''re running Xen Unstable changeset 15468 with SLES10 on a Unisys ES7000/one 56x cpu and 160GB memory. Xen is built with NR_DYNIRQS=1024 and max_phys_cpus=64, and booted with dom0_mem=1024 and xenheap_megabytes=64. We have 320 para-virtualized SLES10 VMs on external storage. Our script starts a VM, waits for the start to complete, then starts the next: "for i in *.cfg;

Hi, I have three Xen hosts running Xen 4.0.2 (OpenSuSE 11.4 based). I also have one ''NFS'' server with an NFS export holding VM images and configuration files. Each host has a dedicated LAN link directly to the NFS server. I have another separated NFS export for VM locking (but I had the same issues before). When I attempt to live migrate a VM, it *looks''*like

I am running Pentium D 930 with 2 gigs of ram. Fedora Core 6 with Xen enabled. I am able to start the install and it goes to the first stage of needing to be rebooted. I restart the Domain and it starts to finalize the windows install. And is fine until it starts asking for serial numbers or computer names. Then all of a sudden the guest freezes. The guest CPU goes to zero and so does the

Hi, I have a problem with a dom0 which is unable to launch my domU : all my dom0 are Debian Lenny amd64 with Debian kernel 2.6.26-2-xen-amd64 and xen-hypervisor-3.2-1-amd64. Then all domU (PV) are Debian Lenny amd64 too, with vanilla kernel 2.6.29.6. So, this new dom0 can''t launch any domU which are working on an other dom0. Software is same on both dom0, and hardware is near the

I am now testing XEN live migration on two physical hosts with XEN 4.0.1 pvops Ubuntu 10.10 (2.6.35-22). Host A also acts as a NFS server, and Host B acts as a NFS client.

Dear,Beg for your help. I am really puzzled with this problem.HVM domain can not boot up with Qcow incremental image(using command: qcow-create size incremental_file original_Qcow_img_file), but it can boot up with the original Qcow disk image file. When using Qcow incremental image, the guest qemu window would disappear before loading grub, and `xm list` can not find this guest domain.The VM

Hello, I''m running 6.26-2-xen-amd64 with xen-hypervisor-3.2-1-amd64. Now I try to pass through a controller card to WHS, at the moment without success because the card isn''t present in DomU. At the first moment I guess it''s a windows problem ;) so I''d tried to boot a Knoppix .iso but same problem there, the passed through device isn''t present in DomU.

First let me say that I'm not a sysadmin, but am simply wearing that hat this week so please excuse my ignorance. I need to temporarily move some virtual servers from a CentOS-KVM platform to a CentOS-XEN platform while I do some upgrades to the CentOS box. I've created a local LV, and used DD and SCP to transfer the block device from the VKM machine to the XEN machine. For quite a

When I try to use stubdom-dm in lieu of qemu-dm, the guest domain crashes almost immediately if I specify an emulated NIC (''vif='') in the guest configuration file. If I don''t specify a vif, it works fine. If I use the same configuration with qemu-dm instead of sutbdom-dm, it works fine. Is there some reason QEMU emulated networking doesn''t work with stub domains

Hi, I''m kinda new to XEN stuff, and I''ve been trying to create a fully virtualized guest on CentOS 5.3 for almost 3 months and no luck yet. I approached this process through several methods, one with virt-install and creating config file manually. Following is what happens when I try to create a guest, and I have included qemu-dm and last part of xend.log logs below too.
