Hi, i''m running a two dom0 nodes cluster for HA, and xen domUs running on top, currently it handles 5 domUs. The issue is that there''s a domU that can only run on one node, it''s not possible to start it on the other one. I get a ''b'' status and can''t access the console. Other domUs can start in either node and I can access their console without

Hi, I wanted an opinion on the most xen-compatible linux distro. Im embarking on a 4 month project with xen which involves the following objectives: 1.>Creating a tool with GUI that allows a)starting,stopping restarting domUs b)maintaining a status log of domUs c)migration of dom Us d)

Hi everyone, I need some help to setup my configuration failover system. My goal is to have a redundance system using Xen + DRBD + Corosync + Pacemaker On Xen I will have one virtual machine. When this computer has network down, I will do a Live migration to the second computer. The first configuration I will need is a crossover cable, won''t I? It is really necessary? Ok, I did it. eth0

Hi, I'm looking to install a new 2-node Samba3 cluster. The cluster will be responsible for Domain Management and file/printer serving. How does the PDC/BDC roles work with CTDB enabled?, does the cluster appear as just one machine (and PDC)?. In the past I've configured PDC/BDC pairs with OpenLDAP as backend and DRBD for active/passive file serving. Now it sounds nice to have

I''m using Xen with SLES10 and am using NPIV to attach FC SAN disks to my domUs. I''ve resize one of the disks on my SAN and I''m wondering if there''s a way to force Xen to rescan/resize the block device without shutting down the domU or unmounting the volume.

Hello everone, In my Company we are going through a network redesign and Planning to retire our Novel edirectory, and Novel Servers and replace them with Samba4 (Over 150 Servers). We have setup a Samba4 test environment which seems to be working well so far. We are an organization with multiple locations and over 1200 users, we are also very heavy users of google apps. I have couple of questions

Hi. I''m using Xen on RHEL cluster, and I have strange problems. I gave raw volumes from storage to Xen virtual machines. With windows, I have a problem that nodes don''t see the volume as same one.... for example: clusternode1# clusvcadm -d vm:winxp clusternode1# dd if=/dev/mapper/winxp of=/node1winxp clusternode2# dd if=/dev/mapper/winxp of=/node2winxp clusternode3# dd

Hi there, We are using latest version of XCP on 6 hosts. While issuing VM.start or VM.start_on xmlrpc functional call , it says : {''Status'': ''Failure'', ''ErrorDescription'': [''SESSION_INVALID'', ''OpaqueRef:cfb6df14-387d-40a1-cc27-d5962cba7712'']} However if I put VM.start in a loop maybe after

Hi Everyone, I am going to get a storage server which will be connected to my Xen hosts via iSCSI/Ethernet. I wish to use LVM for the DomU disks. The storage server will have a RAID10 array, and 2 Xen hosts will connect to this (Each will have a 50% share of the RAID10 array, space wise). What is the best way to go about this? Should I: a) Split the RAID10 array into 2 partition on the

Hi, What is the preferred OS to use with XEN, as the dom0 host? We primarely us CentOS (currently 5.6) but it seems that the native XEN that comes with CentOS is a bit behind.

I''m going to set up a PVM on xen-3.3.1 debian-amd64. I need advices about the best methods to install a fresh debian on it (i.e. how to choose the kernel for pvm) . I''ve installed xen from sources and only have one xen kernel in /boot which I''m using for dom0; should I use the same kernel for domUs? There is any problem on use vcpus=2; the other vm is an hvm running

I'm desparately looking for more ideas on how to debug what's going on with our CLVM cluster. Background: 4 node "cluster"-- machines are Dell blades with Dell M6220/M6348 switches. Sole purpose of Cluster Suite tools is to use CLVM against an iSCSI storage array. Machines are running CentOS 5.8 with the Xen kernels. These blades host various VMs for a project. The iSCSI

Hello everyone, I''m totally new to Xen and trying to run it on some platforms (x86, x64) using SLES (that is what I have to use for reasons other than technical). Several machines on which I tried using Xen simply fails to run normally using Xen kernel: either network communication is not functioning at all despite proper configuration (that works on non-Xen kernel), or the kernel

HI Dom0 is CentOS 5.2, 64-bit, Xen version 3.2.1 and 3.2.2. I got Fiber SAN disk system and 2 servers and i am making shared LUN available to both servers. Then i got multipath layer running on both Dom0s and so Xen is seeing device-mapper file, instead of two /dev/sdX devices, then i have setup Xen domU (HVM Windows 2003) using /dev/mapper/sharedLUN as physical storage to my windows server.

Hi all, Can anyone pleas tell me what would be best practice to use shared storage with virtual machines, especially when it involved high availability / automated failover between 2 XEN servers? i.e. if I setup 2x identical XEN servers, each with say 16GB RAM, 4x 1GB NIC''s, etc. Then I need the xen domU''s to auto failover between the 2 servers if either goes down (hardware
