Xen users - May 2013 - XCP don't see Network Interfaces on sunfire x2270

On a fresh installation of XCP 1.6 there is no interface in XCP Network
Management.

While in comman line ifconfig -a shows me both physical interfaces.

I would appreciate for an ideas on what.

What is "XCP Network Management", xsconsole?

By default, XCP 1.6 creates a "network" for each physical interface,
as
a bridge. So, there is no ethX directly usable, the bridges are used as 
network interface instead.

Check "xe network-list" and "xe pif-list" output to inspect
that.

Does they have the "UP" flag or not?

Yes, xsconsole.

xe pif-list shows nothing. (No any interfaces)
xe network-list shows defaults XCP networks

ifconfig -a shows that eth0, eth1 - BROADCAST MULTICAST

You may try to add the needed PIF''s, using "xe pif-scan"
(never used
it), or manually using "xe pif-introduce".

Reference:
xe host-list #get your host UUID
xe pif-introduce host-uuid=host-UUID device=eth0
xe pif-introduce host-uuid=host-UUID device=eth1
xe-toolstack-restart
http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX127161
http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX121615

If my reference does not lie, this would create the needed PIF''s
objects
and add them to the default "Pool-wide network associated with ethX" 
network. Check the result with "xe pif-list" and "xe
network-list".

I see, they are present but down. Does your host have any other working NIC?

Generally this is wired. I would suspect that the NIC''s was not visible
while installing, and appeared later, that''s why the installer did not 
configured them. Did you had to do something specific to make your XCP 
installation to see your NIC''s, like compiling and inserting some 
modules? Are you using the official XCP installation media? What NIC''s 
are they, anyway?

If the suggested method fails or is unacceptable in some other way, 
check the log tty while installing, it might give some clue about
what''s
wrong with the NIC detection.

Greetings.
