Hi, is there a way to use more than 3 VIFs in a domU? My installed OS is Debian/Etch with XEN Kernel 2.8.18 from Debian and Hypervisor 3.2 from backports.org. In the XEN-FAQ is written XEN 3.1 support 8 VIF in a domU. (http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenFaq#head-9896478cf65a16f43ab4fb066f74c0e0d67a16ac) I try to use 6 VIFs but only 3 VIFs are running. :( Greetings Torsten Zumpf _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
Hi Torsten, maybe you''re out of network-loop-devices? Try adding the following line in your /etc/modules netloop nloopbacks=128 or if you have netloop static in the kernel pass the following to your dom0 kernel command line in menu.lst netloop.nloopbacks=128 Maybe this does the trick, Greetz Age_M Torsten Zumpf schrieb:> Hi, > > is there a way to use more than 3 VIFs in a domU?

In the XEN-FAQ is written XEN 3.1 support 8 VIF in a domU.Your hypervisor supports more than 3 vifs, but your running kernel won''t. You need a more recent kernel, ''cause Debian etchs kernel is based on XEN 3.0.x (not more recent in the sense of the version of the kernel itself, but in the sense of the XEN parts in the kernel).
