Re: [Xen-users] Error code: INVALID_SOURCE while VM start
That is the problem, My ISO is in the NFS. I had tried to mount the ISO using: xe-mount-iso-sr and by the command prompt. The ISO is mounted from a NFS. I also tried to use an ISO from a Windows file share and then I thought that the Windows file share would be the problem, so I created a Linux NFS with the ISO. But even with the ISO NFS on windows I am getting the same problem. I also downloaded the openxenmanager from the repository, but it seems to be a little bugged, I tried to create a VM using it, but it did not set the CD as bootable and the Disk as not bootable. And also it forgets to set the parameter install-repository. And when I started the VM I got the same problem. What is the XCP version that you guys are using? What is the Open Xen Manager version that you guys are using ? -----Mensagem Original----- From: Todd Deshane Sent: Saturday, June 18, 2011 2:06 AM To: Rafael Weingartner Cc: Xen-user-list Subject: Re: [Xen-users] Error code: INVALID_SOURCE while VM start On Fri, Jun 17, 2011 at 5:22 PM, Rafael Weingartner <rafaelweingartner@gmail.com> wrote:> Hey guys, > I am creating a VM following those steps “To install a supported Linux VM > from vendor media using the CLI”: > http://www.xen.org/files/XenCloud/guest.pdf > > I am trying to install the OS in the VM using a ISO. > So, I am having a little problem.

Re: [Xen-users] Error code: INVALID_SOURCE while VM start
We are using the same versions of XCP and Open Xen Manager. Now just to make sure, I installed the xen server again. And added the NFS storage and NFS Iso using the Open Xen Manager. So, I tried to create the VM using the manager. And I am still getting the same error. =( I really don''t know what is happening. Have you guys tried to use Xen over a virtual box instance ? -----Mensagem Original----- From: Todd Deshane Sent: Saturday, June 18, 2011 11:22 AM To: Rafael Weingartner Cc: Xen-user-list Subject: Re: [Xen-users] Error code: INVALID_SOURCE while VM start On Sat, Jun 18, 2011 at 10:01 AM, Rafael Weingartner <rafaelweingartner@gmail.com> wrote:> That is the problem, > My ISO is in the NFS.

You may run into a problem for HVM guests if you virtual box can''t pass through the virtualization extensions properly, but for PV guest things should work fine.
