We have made some progress with Xen but are stuck trying to start domains.
When we try to run xenctl domain start -n9, for example, we get the output
listed below. We would appreciate any information you could give us about
the errors we are getting.
We have tried granting and not granting partitions with physical grant, but
that doesn''t seem to make a difference.
We have also tried using xenctl partitions add to let Xen know more about
the partitions we have on disk. Whatever that does, it got rid of some of
the errors, but not all. What should be in this list (bracketed) such that
Xen can function properly? Is there a way to remove these partitions once
added?
Also, we tried making the logs (the .tex files) in the bk /docs folder and
there doesn''t seem to be any text in there besides the headings. Is
there a
problem with these documents or are we doing something wrong?
Thanks for your help.
