Here is the error I get, Unable to complete install ''exceptions.RuntimeError Error creating vdisk /var/lib/xen/images/centos.img Traceback (most recent call last): File "/var/tmp/pkgbuild-gbuild/SUNWvirt-manager-0.6.1-build/virtManager/create.py", line 730, in do_install File "/export/builds/xvm_127///proto/install/usr/lib Please could you help?

I created a xen domU and using the Virtual Machine Manager. This created a large file on a zfs filesystem (in /var/lib/xen/images) containing the virtual disk image. Is there a better way to create a virtual disk? Does zpool/zfs allow to create special devices/filesystems with better I/O performance than a file over a zfs space? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org

I''ve just pushed vdiskadm import/export/convert to the 3.3 vdisk and vbox repos. You can now import a disk image from a block device or file to a vdisk, convert (in place) to a different type of vdisk and export from a vdisk to a block device or file. I''ve also pushed the full vhd support (sparse and fixed) and the ability to import a vmdk 1.1 optimized stream file. An

Just a quick fyi... We''ve recently added support for blktap along with support for managing virtual disks (disk file images). There are some difference from a linux dom0. This is available in b101 @ http://www.opensolaris.org/os/downloads/sol_ex_dvd_1/ This allows you to create and manage vmdk and vdi (Virtual Box) disk files. By default, virt-install will now use a vmdk vdisk when

[PATCH 0/4] VHD Support addition The patches that follow implement Microsoft''s VHD format support, and apply to xen-unstable.hg CS 15281:356588dda4bc This is based on the VHD format spec covered by Microsoft''s "Open Specification Promise": http://www.microsoft.com/interop/osp/default.mspx MS VHD Spec can be found at the following link:

Gents, We want to understand the mechanism of zfs a bit better. Q: what is the design/algorithm of zfs in terms of reclaiming unused blocks? Q: what criteria is there for zfs to start reclaiming blocks Issue at hand is an LDOM or zone running in a virtual (thin-provisioned) disk on a NFS server and a zpool inside that vdisk. This vdisk tends to grow in size even if the user writes and deletes

I''ve just pushed vdiskadm translate to the 3.3 vdisk repo. You can now translate data from one virtual disk data type to another without creating a virtual disk. This allows the user to use a vmdk file and directly translate the data into a zvol without having to import it first to a vdisk and then export it to the zvol. # vdiskadm help translate translate - translate virtual disk data

Hi, I am seeing a performance degradation while using libvirt to start my vm (kvm). vm is fedora 12 and host is also fedora 12, both with 2.6.32.10-90.fc12.i686.
