Hi Arpan, you''re maybe running out of loopback devices!? If you have loopback support builtin the kernel, just add max_loop=256 to your dom0 kernel in grub.conf (it''s the module line). If you use loopback as module it depends on which version of linux you use: This is the Debian way: echo "loop max_loop=256" >> /etc/modules Hope it helps, Greetz Age_M Arpan Jindal schrieb:> Hi > i am having one parataion of 150 Gb as /dev/sdb5 > i am trying to create more than 10 domu on that machine i am able to > start 7 but when i try of start 8 on onwards i am not able to start > from that partaion. > i am using files for domu disk. > os is htere any limit on that ? > as if i shutdown the seventh domu and try starting 8th one its starts > i have made a observation that at a same time i m only able to start > only seven domu from one partation type. > is it true ? > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > _______________________________________________ > Xen-users mailing list > Xen-users@lists.xensource.com > http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users_______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
Hello again, please answer to the mailinglist. The community should benefit from the solution to your problem too! I am sorry, but I neither have a howto, nor do I work with RedHat products. Did you do a google search [1] on that? I found this, maybe it helps: echo "options loop max_loop=256" >> /etc/modprobe.conf 256 <- This is the max count of loop devices, so you may want to change that. After you did that, you need to reboot your machine, or do a: rmmod loop modprobe loop Hope it helps, Greetz Age_M [1] http://www.google.com/search?q=rhel5+dom0+max_loop Arpan Jindal schrieb:> how to do for rhel5 > > On 4/24/08, *Age_M* <Age_M@gmx.de <mailto:Age_M@gmx.de>> wrote: > > Hi Arpan, > > you''re maybe running out of loopback devices!? > If you have loopback support builtin the kernel, just add > max_loop=256 to your dom0 kernel in grub.conf (it''s the module line). > If you use loopback as module it depends on which version of linux > you use: > > This is the Debian way: > echo "loop max_loop=256" >> /etc/modules > > Hope it helps, > Greetz Age_M > > > > > Arpan Jindal schrieb: > > Hi > i am having one parataion of 150 Gb as /dev/sdb5 > i am trying to create more than 10 domu on that machine i am > able to start 7 but when i try of start 8 on onwards i am not > able to start from that partaion. > i am using files for domu disk. > os is htere any limit on that ? > as if i shutdown the seventh domu and try starting 8th one its > starts i have made a observation that at a same time i m only > able to start only seven domu from one partation type. > is it true ? > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > _______________________________________________ > Xen-users mailing list > Xen-users@lists.xensource.com > <mailto:Xen-users@lists.xensource.com> > http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users > > >_______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
