Hi,
I am creating RHEL4 -HVM domain on RHEL5 with below is config file.
--------------------
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 =2000
name = "Dom-El4"
vcpus=8
nic=1
vif = [ 'bridge=xenbr0 , mac=00:50:56:38:51:bf' ]
disk = [ 'phy:/dev/cciss/c0d1,hda,w' ]
device_model='/usr/' + arch_libdir + '/xen/bin/qemu-dm'
pae=1
sdl=0
vnc=1
vncviewer=1
vnclisten="0.0.0.0"
vncpasswd=""
ne2000=1
serial='pty'
usb=1
usbdevice='mouse'
--------------
Every thing works fine except that vif is not exported to guest domain.
Could you try this?. Could you please tell me what could be wrong here and
any possible solutions.
Thanks,
--Trilok
