Hi,
I am using Debian 6 with the default xen kernel (2.6.32) and all the
default Xen (4.0) packages. When I try to create a domain with xm, I
invariably get an error. Creating the domain with virt-install works,
but I would like to figure out how to create it the "normal" way.
Also,
I can''t figure out how to add a VNC password when I create the machine
with virt-install, but that''s another topic.
Here is my config file, adapted from
http://www.virtuatopia.com/index.php/Installing_and_Running_Windows_7_as_a_Xen_HVM_domainU_Guest:
==========================================# cat winxp.cfg
import os, re
arch = os.uname()[4]
if re.search(''64'', arch):
arch_libdir = ''lib64''
else:
arch_libdir = ''lib''
kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
builder=''hvm''
memory = 1024
# Should be at least 2KB per MB of domain memory, plus a few MB per
vcpu.shadow_memory = 8
name = "winxp"
vif = [ ''type=ioemu, bridge=xenbr0'' ]
acpi = 1
apic = 1
disk = [ ''file:/data/xen/domains/disk.img,hda,w'',
''file:/data/xpcdsp3.iso,hdc:cdrom,r'' ]
device_model = ''/usr/'' + arch_libdir +
''/xen/bin/qemu-dm''
#---------------------------------------------------
# boot on floppy (a), hard disk (c) or CD-ROM (d)
# default: hard disk, cd-rom, floppy
boot="dc"
sdl=0
vnc=1
vncconsole=1
vncpasswd=''blah''
serial=''pty''
usbdevice=''tablet''
==========================================
And here is my error:
==========================================# xm create ./winxp.cfg
Using config file "././winxp.cfg".
Error: Domain ''winxp'' does not exist.
==========================================
