I am running Xen 3.0.2. I am able to boot into Xen, and can use the network
fine from dom0, but when I create a domU, there is no network set up. I
have not modified the network-bridge, vif-bridge, or xend-config.sxp. I am
running this on a SuSE 10 install, with all the updates from Yast Online
Updates installed. The SuSE kernel is 2.6.13-15.8-smp. When I try to
install Xen using the SuSE packages, I get a hypervisor error anytime I
start up our Java application. When I submitted a bug report for this, I
was told that it was a known bug that was fixed in Xen 3.0.2. I then tried
applying 3.0.2 on top of my current SuSE install, and was not able to access
the network from within the domU. I could access the network just fine from
dom0 however. I then tried a fresh install of SuSE 10, without any SuSE Xen
packages. I did the YOU update just like before, and then installed 3.0.2
on top of that. Same problem, I could create a domU, and boot fine into it,
but I couldn''t access the network from within the domU, and could
access it
fine from the dom0.
I am using the following configuration file for domU. I have tried both
explicitly specifying the MAC address and bridge in the vif command, as well
as shown below.
