similar to: Opensolaris domU HostID Changes on Every Boot

Hey, everyone, I''m running Xen 3.2 (SLES10) and trying to get an OpenSolaris PV domU to run correctly. I''ve followed a couple of the instruction sets out on the Xen wiki and other folks blogs, but I''m running into an issue with the domU crashing. The OpenSolaris version is the latest development release - 5.11-0.128. The config looks like this:

After upgrading my small test system from Debian Etch->Lenny via a complete reinstall, I find my g729 hostid has changed. Same machine, same CPU, same NIC! It doesn't seem reasonable that I have to burn my one "no-hassle" re-registration for a simple OS upgrade. The README only says that hostid is based on MAC addresses of all NICs, but that doesn't seem to be true. Does

Dear Experts, Is there a foolproof way of getting hostid on solaris 10 sparc? I am asking this because i have seen Dtrace scripts which allow to change hostid. I want this because i want to tie down my application to specific host and do not want my client to re-use it on other machine just by changing hostid. Thanks, -- This message posted from opensolaris.org

Hi, since hostid is stored in the label, "zpool import" failed if the hostid dind''t match. Under certain circonstances (ldom failover) it means you have to manually force the zpool import while booting. With more than 80 LDOMs on a single host it will be great if we could configure the machine back to the old behavior where it didn''t failed, maybe with a /etc/sytem

Hi, I''m trying to create OpenSolaris (2008.11) domU on RedHat Linux dom0. I''m using a file backed VBD. I used the iso image to first launch and install OpenSolaris into the file VBD. Once that process is complete, I''m trying to run it using the config file below: name = ''opensolaris'' vcpus = 1 memory = "512" vif =

My newly upgraded opensolaris 2008.11 laptop crashed last weekend. (The OS was installed from the os 2008.11 live-cd and then upgraded using the package manager to snv_111.) I was trying to copy a large virtual pc image from my wife''s imac to the laptop. On a whim I had decided to create a separate zvol in the root pool to contain the image, figuring I could create a vbox with linux or

I''ve got a CentOS 5.3 dom0 with Xen 3.4.1-rc5 (or so). I''ve tried the same stuff below with 3.4.0, no difference. I''m trying to install 2009.06 PV domU based on instructions from [1] and [2]. I can run the install fine, I can also get the kernel and boot archive (from [2]) after the install. But for the life of me I can''t get the installed domU to boot. If I

Andy, OSOL 2009.06 been installed in stub domain (hvm domain) at mentioned Dom0 with 2.6.30 xenified kernel via xen-patches-2.6.30-2.tar.bz2 refuse to activate PV drivers. When same Dom0 starts with 2.6.29.4 xenified kernel (xen-patches-2.6.29-6.tar.bz2) kernel OSOL 2009.06 in stub (hvm) domain does activate PV drivers for xdf, xnf . Boris

Is it possible to convert Solaris 10 DomU from hvm to pv?? Dom0 is Opensolaris b132. Possibly any Documentation about this? Here is config of Solaris DomU: <domain type=''xen'' id=''1''> <name>Solaris-10</name> <uuid>c505f6c3-b37b-8268-fe46-f10b3277238b</uuid> <memory>2097152</memory>

I have been storing the output of facter in a database with the assumption that uniqueid was actually unique, until I found that it is the same for a handful of my machines. It appears that uniqueid is set from the output of hostid. I checked into hostid and it gets its value from gethostid(). The following link, http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/gethostid.html, states,

I had the rpool with two sata disks in the miror. Solaris 10 5.10 Generic_141415-08 i86pc i386 i86pc Unfortunately the first disk with grub loader has failed with unrecoverable block write/read errors. Now I have the problem to import rpool after the first disk has failed. So I decided to do: "zpool import -f rpool" only with second disk, but it''s hangs and the system is

I''m running a ubuntu 9.04 64 bit dom0 with kernel 2.6.29.6 and xen 3.4.0. My eth0 is bridged to br0 and to my guest VMs. The dom0 is running a dhcp server on br0 which is able to provide leases to physical machines on eth0, and also to a windows xp domU which is bridged to br0. However my open solaris 2009.6 domU is unable to obtain a dhcp lease. On the opensolaris side I can see this:

Hi @all I want to load the precompile kqemu modul on my solaris 5.10 3/05, but this dont work.

Hi Folks.. I have/had a zpool containing one filesystem. I had to change my hostid and needed to import my pool, (I''ve done his OK in the past). After the import the mount of my filesystem failed. # zpool import homespool cannot mount ''homespool/homes'': mountpoint or dataset is busy The data seems it might still exist, (correct amount of used space is reported),

after trying to mount my zfs pools in single user mode I got the following message for each: May 18 09:09:36 gw kernel: ZFS: WARNING: pool 'cache1' could not be loaded as it was last accessed by another system (host: gw.bb1.matik.com.br hostid: 0xbefb4a0f). See: http://www.sun.com/msg/ZFS-8000-EY any zpool cmd returned nothing else as not existing zfs, seems the zfs info on disks

Hi All, Debian squeeze, Xen 4.0, 2.6.32-5 I successfully installed opensolaris, but when trying to convert to pygrub it just hangs. root@vhost2:/var/log/xen# xm create /etc/xen/opensolaris.cfg -c Using config file "/etc/xen/opensolaris.cfg". root@vhost2:/etc/xen# xm list Name ID Mem VCPUs State Time(s) Domain-0

I?d like to report the ZFS related crash/bug described below. How do I go about reporting the crash and what additional information is needed? I?m using my own very simple test app that creates numerous directories and files of randomly generated data. I have run the test app on two machines, both 64 bit. OpenSolaris crashes a few minutes after starting my test app. The crash has occurred on

While attempting to install snv_85 as a domU, Debian etch as the dom0, the kernel panics before the rest of the system starts to boot. Currently I''m using the sid releases of xen 3.2 found in Debian sid. I stopped using 3.0.3, as it appears I''m unable to use a ramdisk setting. # dmesg | grep -i mem ...
