Is anyone here running Smoothwall Appliance as a VM in Xen? We''re running it right now, but it''s running fully virtualized instead of para-virtualized. Anyone know if it can run as a PV? It crashed yesterday with only a 100 user sessions on it. Not much in the log except: [2010-12-06 15:03:31 7341] WARNING (image:559) domain prxy3: device model failure: pid 22922: malfunctioning (closed sentinel), killed; see /var/log/xen/qemu-dm-prxy3.log [2010-12-06 15:03:31 7341] WARNING (XendDomainInfo:2106) Domain has crashed: name=prxy3 id=15.

I believe Smoothwall is a custom built Linux distro, not based off of any others. And, as far as I know, it can''t be run para-virtualized. I would be very interested if someone found a way to make it so.

I''m using the Zentyal, as a PVM domU. First I install the Ubuntu 10.04 as a minimum virtual machine, after that I install the Zentyal and if all goes fine, I convert the domU from HVM do PVM.

Install PV guest capable kernel etc. Shutdown, start up in PV mode - with either pygrub/pvgrub or by using kernel etc stored on host. The extra step with conversion from real machine is to copy the files/filesystems. -- Simon Hobson Visit http://www.magpiesnestpublishing.co.uk/ for books by acclaimed author Gladys Hobson.
