Re: [Xen-users] second bridge for dual homed machine!
Hi! I don''t know anything about the "official" way, but I adjusted /etc/xen/scripts/network-bridge. If you take at a look at the source you can easily find out where the first bridge is started and where it is stopped. Just duplicate the commands for your custom bridge. This is quiet a hack! But I don''t know a neater solution. And I think I read that the scripts are intended for customization. Cheers!

Good Morning!
What I did was copy the network-bridge script to network-custom (you can
name it anything) and change vifnum=${vifnum:-0} to vifnum=${vifnum:-1} in
the second script. Then for the last line in the network-bridge script I
put in the path to the second script: /etc/xen/scripts/network-custom
start so that it calls the second script when the first finishes. Make
sure your new script is executable. Like the previous writer mentioned
the developers expect these scripts to be customized. If there is an
''official'' way to do it I haven''t seen it. Note that
if you do
./network-bridge stop that it will *not* stop xenbr1. You will need to do
that manually just as you did xenbr0. (I''ll eventually get something
written for that).
Regards,
John

Re: [Xen-users] Re: second bridge for dual homed machine!
I made a script that called the original script ----------- #/etc/xen/scripts/makebridge for i in 0 1; do /etc/xen/scripts/network $1 antispoof=no bridge=xen-br$i netdev=eth$1 done ------------- This properly starts and stops the network bridge with xend. Just change the pointer in /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp to point to the new makebridge script instead of network. -Kris Hollingsworth John S Little wrote:> Good Morning! > > What I did was copy the network-bridge script to network-custom (you can > name it anything) and change vifnum=${vifnum:-0} to vifnum=${vifnum:-1} in > the second script.
