Hi folks,
I''m updating my xen server from a dom0 on debian sarge, using a self
compiled xen 3.0.4 and a kernel 2.6.16, to a standard debian etch using the
deb packages xen 3.0.3 and kernel 2.6.18.
On the old server, all my hvm machines use vnc console and a password is set
into xend-config.sxp and it works nice.
On the new etch server, with the same hvms and configuration files,
everything seems to work fine except that we could access to the vnc console
without a password which is set in xend-config.sxp by the line (vncpasswd
''xxx''). However it looks like the config file is used because
if I change
the ip address into the entry "(vnc-listen
''0.0.0.0'')", I see the result in
the qemu-dm called line :
/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm -d 3 -m 128 -boot cda -serial pty -vcpus 1
-domain-name ha-deb1 -net nic,vlan=1,macaddr=00:16:3e:01:01:01,model=rtl8139
-net tap,vlan=1,bridge=xenbr0 -vncunused -k en-us -vnclisten 0.0.0.0
The same hvm machine on the old xen server :
/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm -d 19 -m 128 -boot cda -serial pty -vcpus 1 -acpi
-k fr -domain-name ha-deb1 -net
nic,vlan=1,macaddr=00:16:3e:01:01:01,model=rtl8139 -net
tap,vlan=1,bridge=xenbr0 -vncunused -vnclisten 0.0.0.0
I do use the same xen-config.sxp file with these options :
(network-script multiple-network-bridge)
(vif-script vif-bridge)
(dom0-min-mem 196)
(dom0-cpus 0)
(vncpasswd ''xxx'')
(vnc-listen ''0.0.0.0'')
And the same hvm config file :
kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
builder=''hvm''
memory = 128
shadow_memory = 8
name = "ha-deb1"
vif = [ ''type=ioemu, mac=00:16:3e:01:01:01, bridge=xenbr0'' ]
disk = [ ''file:/xen/ha-deb1.dsk,hda,w'' ]
device_model = ''/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm''
boot="cda"
sdl=0
vnc=1
keymap=''fr''
nographic=0
stdvga=0
serial=''pty''
In fact not only the vncpasswd is not used but also the keymap which is set
to ''fr'' in sarge and is set to the default
''en_us'' on etch.
Here is the installed packages on the etch version :
ii libc6-xen 2.7-4 GNU C
Library: Shared libraries [Xen version
ii linux-image-2.6.18-4-xen-686 2.6.18.dfsg.1-12etch2 Linux
2.6.18 image on i686
ii linux-modules-2.6.18-4-xen-686 2.6.18.dfsg.1-12etch2 Linux
2.6.18 modules on i686
ii xen-hypervisor-3.0.3-1-i386 3.0.3-0-4 The Xen
Hypervisor on i386
ii xen-ioemu-3.0.3-1 3.0.3-0-4 XEN
administrative tools
ii xen-utils-3.0.3-1 3.0.3-0-4 XEN
administrative tools
ii xen-utils-common 3.0.3-0-2 XEN
administrative tools - common files
I can''t understand why some options are not interpreted and some other
are.
Are keymap and vncpasswd options only valid starting from xen 3.0.4?
Any idea?
Thanks.
