Hello,
For my current project I need to automate domain creation and some basic
management. I thought XEN-API may be a better way than writing xm config
and calling xm to create and manage domains.
Unfortunately the XEN-API documentation and examples I found seem a bit
outdated. By trial and error I managed to login to xend and create a VM
with a few VBDs (but I still don''t quite understand how those
VBD/VDI/SR
work)... however when trying to start the VM I get:
{''Status'': ''Failure'',
''ErrorDescription'': [''INTERNAL_ERROR'',
"(11, ''Resource temporarily unavailable'')"]}
In xend.log I get:
[2007-06-13 10:13:43 1905] ERROR (XendDomainInfo:1540)
XendDomainInfo.initDomain: exception occurred
Traceback (most recent call last):

in buildDomain
Error: (11, ''Resource temporarily unavailable'')
[2007-06-13 10:13:43 1905] ERROR (XendDomainInfo:416) VM start failed
There is nothing interesting in the "xm dmesg" output, despite
"loglvl=all
guest_loglvl=all" xen boot options.
How can I find out what went wrong? Is the XEN-API usable at all? Is there any
up-to-date
XEN-API documentation and/or examples available?
Greets,
Jacek

Hello, I am currently having the same problems. I wasn''t able to create and start a VM using the Xen-API (xen 3.1 built from source). Any help and/or real world examples would be really appreciated.

Maybe this helps somehow? I will investigate further.

Now the XEN-API created domain boots :-) Greets, Jacek _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
Hi, This usually happens when the memory comes to be zero. Please verify the logs to see if "memsize" is appearing as zero. Also verify that you are setting the memory (dynamic/static) during creation time to be in bytes. Hope this helps... Saurabh.
