[Xen-devel] CCISS Driver (for DL360) useable with 2.4.27-xen0 ?
Hi @ all...
I''m tryin to compile a 2.4.27-xen0 kernel on a RH3 AS Server running on
a Compaq Proliant DL360.
This Server has a builtin Compaq Smart Array Controller
HP CISS Driver (v 2.4.47.RH1)
cciss: Device 0xb178 has been found at bus 0 dev 4 func 0
blocks= 71122560 block_size= 512
heads= 255, sectors= 32, cylinders= 8716 RAID 1(0+1)
The problem:
If I load the config using
make oldconfig ARCH=xen
or
make menuconfig ARCH=xen
I can''t see the SmartArray drivers in the kernel options. Does this
mean, that the Cpq CCISS driver isn''t supported to work under XEN ?
Should I add the CPQ driver manually to the XEN kernel ?
thx in advice
Andy

CCISS Problem [SOLVED] !! But another problem is coming up. I''m not able to increase the maxmem from a domain. Example: my domain has a maxmem from e.g. 64MB Using the balloon driver, I''m able to decrease/increase the memory from 0-64MB without a problem. Now I''ve tried to increase the maxmem to 128M using xm maxmem MyDomain 128 But ''xm list'' reports still 64M. Then I''ve tested to decrese the maxmem value: xm maxmem MyDomain 30M This works... using the balloon command, I''m not able to increase over 30M of Mem. But... when I wan''t increase the maxmem from 30M to 64M again, this results in "nothing" useful. maxmem is still 30M :/ btw: Is the HIGHMEM kernel a problem ? [root@pl370_node3 xen-src]# grep HIGH /boot/config-2.4.27-xen0 # CONFIG_NOHIGHMEM is not set CONFIG_HIGHMEM4G=y CONFIG_HIGHMEM=y CONFIG_HIGHIO=y another potential useful info: [root@myhost xen-src]# xm info system : Linux host : myhost release : 2.4.27-xen0 version : #5 Wed Nov 17 13:16:29 CET 2004 machine : i686 cores : 1 hyperthreads_per_core : 2 cpu_mhz : 2799 memory : 1023 free_memory : 849 Greetz & Thx btw: gr8 piece of software !!! =) ________________________________________________________________ Verschicken Sie romantische, coole und witzige Bilder per SMS!

Re: [Xen-devel] Re: CCISS Driver (for DL360) useable with 2.4.27-xen0 ?
I think there''s a maxmem kernel parameter that allows you to specify the largest amount of memory you ever want to give the domain. Otherwise Linux will assume that it''s initial memory allocation is the maximum for all time. -- Keir> CCISS Problem [SOLVED] !! > > But another problem is coming up. > > I''m not able to increase the maxmem from a domain. > > Example: > my domain has a maxmem from e.g. 64MB > Using the balloon driver, I''m able to decrease/increase the memory from 0-64MB without a problem. > > Now I''ve tried to increase the maxmem to 128M using > xm maxmem MyDomain 128 > > But ''xm list'' reports still 64M. > > Then I''ve tested to decrese the maxmem value: > > xm maxmem MyDomain 30M > > This works... using the balloon command, I''m not able to increase over 30M of Mem. > > But... when I wan''t increase the maxmem from 30M to 64M again, this results in "nothing" useful. > maxmem is still 30M :/ > > btw: Is the HIGHMEM kernel a problem ? > > [root@pl370_node3 xen-src]# grep HIGH /boot/config-2.4.27-xen0 > # CONFIG_NOHIGHMEM is not set > CONFIG_HIGHMEM4G=y > CONFIG_HIGHMEM=y > CONFIG_HIGHIO=y > > another potential useful info: > > [root@myhost xen-src]# xm info > system : Linux > host : myhost > release : 2.4.27-xen0 > version : #5 Wed Nov 17 13:16:29 CET 2004 > machine : i686 > cores : 1 > hyperthreads_per_core : 2 > cpu_mhz : 2799 > memory : 1023 > free_memory : 849 > > Greetz & Thx > btw: gr8 piece of software !!! =) > ________________________________________________________________ > Verschicken Sie romantische, coole und witzige Bilder per SMS! > Jetzt neu bei WEB.DE FreeMail: http://freemail.web.de/?mc=021193 > > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.Net email is sponsored by: InterSystems CACHE > FREE OODBMS DOWNLOAD - A multidimensional database that combines > robust object and relational technologies, making it a perfect match > for Java, C++,COM, XML, ODBC and JDBC. www.intersystems.com/match8 > _______________________________________________ > Xen-devel mailing list > Xen-devel@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/xen-devel------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: InterSystems CACHE FREE OODBMS DOWNLOAD - A multidimensional database that combines robust object and relational technologies, making it a perfect match for Java, C++,COM, XML, ODBC and JDBC. www.intersystems.com/match8 _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/xen-devel
