[CentOS-virt] Report on Xen-4.6rc2 from virt7-xen-46-candidate

2015-09-08 Thread T.Weyergraf
Hi I gave the new Xen-4.6rc2 a spin on a CentOS 7 virtualisation guest (nested-xen). I haven't yet started testing guests, but rather looked at the install itself. One issue, I found, was with xenstored.service and the corresponding unit-file: [root@xencen7ws ~]# systemctl status

2015-09-08 Thread George Dunlap
So first of all, if you've used the CBS before, please note the name change -- it's no longer virt6-testing, but virt6-xen-44-testing. Easiest way to install: rpm -ivh http://cbs.centos.org/repos/virt6-xen-44-testing/x86_64/os/Packages/centos-release-xen-7-7.el6.x86_64.rpm This will set up yum

FIrstly Centos is primarily a RHEL clone. This means that the primary design decisions are to be as RHEL like as possible. After that there are additions and upgrades. Secondly Fedora does not actively support Xen. As a long time Xen and RH/Fedora user I have spent lots of time

George, Just an FYI - I tried to run the rpm command and none of the repos showed up enabled by default. I tried enabling them manually, but I get this error: One of the configured repositories failed (CentOS-7 - xen), and yum doesn't have enough cached data to continue. At this point the
