Please help me understand how to properly export the disk to the guest
domain given
the following logical setup.
LVM Volume Group
VolGroup00
LogVol00 / ext3 74176
LogVol01 swap 1984
Hard Drives
/dev/sda
/dev/sda /boot ext3 102
/dev/sda2 VolGroup00 LVMpv 76215
The following boots the guest but I suspect is incomplete:
disk = [ ''file:/xen/images/RHEL.img,hda,w'',
''phy:/dev/cdrom,hdc:cdrom,r''
]
question 1: When using virt-install to create a fully virtualized redhat
domain, where/how should I specify the location
(e.g., /dev/sdaX, /xen/images/file.img, other)?
question 2: What is the proper syntax to export disk in the
configuration file given the above?
question 3: How do I access the disk within the domain?
question 4: How do I access the CDROM within the domain?
question 5: Any clue why STARTX results in a partially visible, unusable
XTERM? Should QEMU be used instead of VNC?
Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

Please help me understand how to properly export the disk to the guest domain
given
the following logical setup.
LVM Volume Group

The following boots the guest but I suspect is incomplete:
disk = [ 'file:/xen/images/RHEL.img,hda,w
<file:/xen/images/RHEL.img,hda,w> ',
'phy:/dev/cdrom,hdc:cdrom,r' ]
question 1: When using virt-install to create a fully virtualized redhat domain,
where/how should I specify the location

question 2: What is the proper syntax to export disk in the configuration file

question 3: How do I access the disk within the domain?

Should QEMU be used instead of VNC?
Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

Should QEMU be used instead of VNC? >QEMU = emulator, VNC = remote access protocol. So it''s impossible to use one instead of another :) To solve the problem, try to reconnect vncviewer, after domU changes its resolution and mode. Just close vncviewer and attach it again.> Your assistance is greatly appreciated. >> _______________________________________________ > Xen-users mailing list > Xen-users@lists.xensource.com > http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users-- WBR, i.m.chubin _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
