Hi folks, About following commands # xm create /path/to/xenX.example.com.cfg and # xm console xenX.example.com After starting the 1st command I can''t ssh connect the VM. I must run the 2nd command in addition before I can ssh connect it. The 1st command seems to me "Power On". The 2nd command is to start the program on the VM? Please shed me some light. TIA TIA B.R.

Using "xm console xenX.example.com", you don''t ssh into the domU, you directly log into at through a terminal. If you want to automatically see the login prompt, use: "xm create -c xenX.example.com" _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
Hi Thomas, Thanks for your advice.> If you want to automatically see the login prompt, use: "xm create -c > xenX.example.com"It need adding .cfg at the end # xm create -c xenX.example.com.cfg What command shall I run to delete an unwanted Guest e.g. /etc/xen/xenX.example.com.cfg? Or I have to remove it manually? TIA B.R.

Shutdown the VM, remove its config file manually, then if you use LVM, trash its logical volume.

Included is the configuration file (.cfg) and any block devices that were created for the vm disks. There is something to be said for learning how to create a vm by hand so that you are familiar with the steps and what gets created, then use the tools as a convenience. I haven''t used the script you have for creating the vm, but deleting the .cfg will delete the vm definition, but look through it first to see what block devices are used (the disks section), and decide if you don''t need them any more. -- * * ------------------------------------------------------------------------ *ServWise Advanced Hosting www.servwise.com <http://www.servwise.com> *Standard and Reseller web hosting on Windows and Linux* * _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
