Dear xen-users.
First of all, I''m not a linux-guru and a beginner with xen and
completly new in this mailinglist.
I''ve installed Xen on debian 6 and I was successful creating two
machines: one for tests and "fogserver" (to test speed of writing
computer images), both para-virtualisations.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Here the output of "xm list":
Name ID Mem VCPUs State Time(s)
Domain-0 0 5169 2 r----- 20.6
fogserver 3 512 2 -b---- 1.9
vm-debian 4 512 1 -b---- 1.4
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
My attempt to create a hardware-virtualisation (cpu capable of both)
failed with "xm create ..." and my efforts to find a solution on
internet were without
success. The content of my "phyfog.cfg" below.
The command
# xm create -c /etc/xen/phyfog.cfg
ends with:
"Using config file /etc/xen/phyfog.cfg.
Domain ''phyfog'' does not exist."
The log file of qemu-dm says:
"domid: 10
-append only allowed with -kernel option"
Any ideas or how to solve the problem creating virtual machines with
''hvm''. Thanks in advance. Peter.
PS: informations about version below.
