Hi, This patch prevents uuid double use. A check_uuid() in this patch checks on uuid of the VM configuration definition. If specified uuid is already used with the others VM, the xm create command does not create the VM. The xm create command error occurs. Signed-off-by: Masaki Kanno <kanno.masaki@jp.fujitsu.com> Best regards, Kan --------- When I found the problem of uuid, operations were as follows. I created VM with the following VM configuration definitions. (I specified the same uuid.) uuid1.conf: kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xenU" memory = 256 name = "vm1" disk = [ ''file:/xen/xen-test/image/rhel4_1.img,sda1,w'' ] vif = [ '''' ] root = "/dev/sda1 ro" uuid = "aaaaaaaa-aaaa-aaaa-aaaa-aaaaaaaaaaaa" uuid2.conf: kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xenU" memory = 256 name = "vm2" disk = [ ''file:/xen/xen-test/image/rhel4_2.img,sda1,w'' ] vif = [ '''' ] root = "/dev/sda1 ro" uuid = "aaaaaaaa-aaaa-aaaa-aaaa-aaaaaaaaaaaa" The result was as follows. - The same uuid is used in domain 1 and domain 2. - The domain name of domain 1 was changed from vm1 to vm2. # xm create /home/kanno/uuid1.conf Using config file "/home/kanno/uuid1.conf". Started domain vm1 # xm create /home/kanno/uuid2.conf Using config file "/home/kanno/uuid2.conf".
