Hi, I''ve a PV guest that is running fine on my server ... but if I run: xm list the guest doesn''t show up in the output, so I have no control on it. However the command: virsh help show the guest, even if however virsh dominfo <domname> gives the info: State: shut off (and this is not true as it''s running fine). The server is on: Xen 3.1.2-164.el5 and SL 5.4 64bit. The domU is a SL 5.3 paravirtualized. How can that happen? Does someone has seen this happening before?

Does someone has seen this happening before?That''s an old version. You might want to try looking at /etc/xen, and see if there are any config file for your domU there. Old versions of virt-install/virt-manager create domU configs as files, which is why they''re not showing when the domU is off and you run "xm list" -- Fajar _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

My domU is _online_ and running fine on the server *but* : - xm list doesn''t show the guest - virsh list show the guest - virsh dominfo show my guest as ''shut off'' (but it''s running... with network, services etc online) - ps -ef show a qemu process for the guest Does someone know of a bug in my running xen that could cause this kind of problems? I usually rely on xm list to check if a guest is running on a server before starting it !!!!!

I''ve 9 virtual machine (all PVs) running on the server. 8 of them are listed by ''xm list'' one is not. That''s pretty confusing as in some cases one may accidentally start a guest that''s already running but not listed by xm list. Fortunately I''ve found that ''virsh list'' seems to list at least the domain name even if it cannot manage the guest.
