Hi, I am having troubles starting a domU. I run it with: xm create -c config_file. Then I can see the output and it seems as if everything is going well. Then, the output suddenly stops without any failures and there is nothing I can do. The cursor is blinking but not responding to any keyboard inputs. I even cannot kill the process with ctrl+c. When I run xen-list-images it shows the image: $ xen-list-images Name: virtualrouter1 Memory: 128 IP: 10.23.100.13 Here is the output of xm create: Using config file "./virtualrouter1.cfg".

Check if "xm list" shows you a running state ("r" for running or "b" for booting, "p" often means that an error occurred). I guess you might have forgotten the line extra = ''''xencons=tty" so the domU seems to hang because it doesn''t show the login prompt on the correct console.

Stefan Kuhne:> All my running DomUs have state "b"! > Did i need any software in domU for state "r"?This is to be expected, especially on systems with a single CPU/core. While xm info is running in the Dom0 it uses the CPU - which means the DomUs cant use it in this very moment. -- Regards mks _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
I don''t know how exactly Xen retrieves the state of operating systems. "r" and "b" usually means that the domU is running normally. As I said, you should try adding the line extra = "xencons=tty" to your configuration file to make sure that the login prompt will appear on your screen output. Then destroy your running machine with "xm destroy virtualrouter1" (afterwards it shouldn''t appear in "xm list" anymore!), edit the configuration and start it again with "xm create -c your_config_file". And by the way, you can send the "xm create" command to the background by pressing Ctrl+Shift+] (on a US keyboard, of course, don''t know about the German keyboard layout). elli_dberg@web.de wrote:> Hi Andreas, > > here is the output of xm list: > > Name ID Mem VCPUs State Time(s) > Domain-0 0 487 2 r----- 352.1 > virtualrouter1 2 256 1 -b---- 0.9 > > I started the virtualrouter1 already today in the morning.

Hi Andreas, and everyone, I did as you said and I set extra= "xencons=tty". Now the boot precess goes some more lines further but now there is another problem. These are the last lines of the output of xm create -c ... ... fuse init (API version 7.7) Done. Begin: Running /scripts/init-premount ... Done. Begin: Mounting root file system... ... Begin: Running /scripts/local-top ... Done. Begin: Waiting for root file system... ... Done. chvt: can''t open console chvt: VT_ACTIVATE: Bad file descriptor Gave up waiting for root device. Common problems: - Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline) - Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?) - Check root= (did the system wait for the right device?) - Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev) chvt: can''t open console chvt: VT_ACTIVATE: Bad file descriptor ALERT! /dev/sda1 does not exist. Dropping to a shell! BusyBox v1.10.2 (Ubuntu 1:1.10.2-1ubuntu7) built-in shell (ash) Enter ''help'' for a list of built-in commands. (initramfs) Does that mean that the virtual machine cannot recognize the file system? I have a SATA hard drive and I am using the same kernel and setup as for dom0. I tried also specifying the root device as its UUID but didn''t work neither. Do have any idea?

Hi again, sorry but I don''t know anything about using real partitions with Xen guests. Maybe you should make sure that it is unmounted in dom0 ?! Furthermore the modules needed to load the file system must be provided for the domU kernel (and probably inside the initrd image). I think somebody else will have to help you on that problem...

Hi Andreas, what do you mean by real partition? How do you create/configure your guest domains? I could change the configuration if necessary.

From your configuration I guessed that your disk will be a real partition having the UUID 94a89174-ddca-4b8c-894c-bb3b7e0c62fa (even though I don''t think it would work like that). Have I been wrong with that assumption? In fact if you just want to use a flat disk image (= one file), you would have to add the lines disk = [''file:/path/to/your/disk.img,sda1,w''] root = "/dev/sda1 ro" You may want to look at the tutorial on http://www.option-c.com/xwiki/Create_a_Debian_VM_with_debootstrap which describes how to setup a basic domU. elli_dberg@web.de wrote:> Hi Andreas, > > what do you mean by real partition?

It tells the domu which disk it haves and so on. If you are using lvm in the backend, it would for example like this: If the logical volume should be recognized as a harddisk: disk = [ ''phy:/dev/volumegroup/volumename,hda,w'' ] And if the volume should be just a partition: disk = [ ''phy:/dev/volumegroup/volumename,hda1,w'' ] ^ HTH Regards, Jan _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Hi Ian, the sata drivers are compiled into the kernel. However, I fixed the problem and I can start the guest domain with xm create. The problem was that I have messed up something with LVM so it wasn''t working properly. I created a new guest domain instance with loopback image and all is fine. Thanks to the numerous answers and help.

Now the boot precess goes some more lines further but now there is another problem. These are the last lines of the output of xm create -c ... ... fuse init (API version 7.7) Done.

Common problems: - Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline) - Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?) - Check root= (did the system wait for the right device?) - Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev) chvt: can''t open console chvt: VT_ACTIVATE: Bad file descriptor ALERT! /dev/sda1 does not exist. Dropping to a shell! BusyBox v1.10.2 (Ubuntu 1:1.10.2-1ubuntu7) built-in shell (ash) Enter ''help'' for a list of built-in commands. (initramfs) Does that mean that the virtual machine cannot recognize the file system? I have a SATA hard drive and I am using the same kernel and setup as for dom0. I tried also specifying the root device as its UUID but didn''t work neither. Do have any idea?

I guess you might have forgotten the line extra = ''''xencons=tty" so the domU seems to hang because it doesn''t show the login prompt on the correct console.

I run it with: xm create -c config_file. Then I can see the output and it seems as if everything is going well. Then, the output suddenly stops without any failures and there is nothing I can do. The cursor is blinking but not responding to any keyboard inputs. I even cannot kill the process with ctrl+c.
