Dear group, how do I shutdown a Windows-VMX-guest correctly? If I make it like the doku says, I shutdown Windows and then I make a "xm destroy" (or "xm shutdown"), the loop-devices this VM used are still blocked. If I do this some times I can''t start any VMs anymore, because there are no more free loop-devices! Same often happens if a domU crashes. How can I release these unused loop-devices? How can I create more loop-devices, the following way is NOT working: Kernel Parameters: max_loop=16 # mknod /dev/loop$8 b 7 $8 # chown root.disk /dev/loop$8 # chmod 640 /dev/loop$8 ... And the last question: How do I disconnect from a console? I found the following but it''s not working with OpenSSH from OS/2, in the Linux-shell and under Gnome: You can detach from a console using the escape character: <CTRL> '']''. On a German keyboard try <CTRL> ''5'' if the above doesn''t work. This works both in Putty and gnome-terminal. Thanks a lot for your answer, -- Chau y hasta luego, Thorolf _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
