For example : -- Can a 32 bit, non-PAE domU run on 64 bit, PAE dom 0 in PV mode ? (or HVM mode ?) Are there any checks that can be done before doing the migration ? Is there any programmatic way (from python) to find out if the kernel in a domU disk image is 32bit/64 bit/PAE/non-PAE/PV/HVM ?i.e. can I generate xen_caps like string from the kernel ?

Re: [convirt-users] ConVirt 0.8.1 + CentOS 5.1: "Exception: Unknown type (null)"
Hi We have tested the CentOS 5.1 as server platform not as a client. You should use 3.0 version of the script if it is vanilla CentOS 5.1. But it seems you have installed xen 3.2 is that correct ? Please pass on the following info -- xm info -- xend-config.sxp file. -- netstat -an | grep LISTEN -- check that firewalls are turned off (for testing) -- For running ConVirt on 5.1 I think you are running in to pygtk problem.

Hi Brecht, Did you run the config script on the managed server as mentioned in the doc ? -- The script basically changes the config file. -- And patches one the xen server python files (that had a bug).

Re: [convirt-users] CentOS 5.2 ConVirt Provisionable Image
There are two things .. probably getting confused here... The Image : You pick an image and provision it. The VM : After the provisioning opertaion, you get a VM that can be started etc. -- to fix an already provisioned VM : Select the VM right mouse click and "Edit VM Settings" Select the disk entry with /dev/cdrom Click properties button change from /dev/cdrom to /dev/hdc press ok. Start the VM -- To fix the CentOS_5_2 image (generated from prev suggestion) - Select image - Right mouse click and choose "Edit Settings" - select the disk with /dev/cdrom, click properties, change /dev/cdrom to /dev/hdc, press ok. - save the image by pressing ok on the settings dialog. - Provision a new VM. - The new VM should recognize the DVD rom.

Re: [convirt-users] (111, 'Conexi\xc3\xb3n rechazada')
1. Add/change the following to /etc/sshd_config on the managed Server (IP_HOST_MANAGED) X11Forwarding yes AllowTcpForwarding yes Restart sshd 2. Make sure that u can ssh in to the managed server (IP_HOST_MANAGED) without password. i.e. key based set up is working. From the same shell start ConVirt and see if it can connect to the server now (after making server side changes in step 1.) /Jd --- On Tue, 7/22/08, Jaime Traver <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > From: Jaime Traver <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: [convirt-users] (111, 'Conexi\xc3\xb3n rechazada') > To: xenman-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Cc: "Manuel Traver" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: Tuesday, July 22, 2008, 2:01 AM > Hi, I have to problem with connection to xen since convirt, > > I have to server with debian etch and xen-3.0.3-1, in the > config file > /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp, i have enable the option > (xend-tcp-xmlrpc-server > yes) for i can connecto since convirt. > > netstat -upta > > Active Internet connections (servers and established) > Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address > State PID/Program name > tcp0 0 192.168.1.12:8002 0.0.0.0:* > LISTEN 8359/python > tcp0 0 127.0.0.1:675 0.0.0.0:* > LISTEN 31875/famd > tcp0 0 127.0.0.1:8005 0.0.0.0:* > LISTEN 8359/python > tcp0 0 192.168.1.12:48242 > 192.168.1.2:3306 > ESTABLISHED6900/apache2 > tcp6 0 0 :::22 :::* > LISTEN 2697/sshd > > So that when i connect witch convirt i am used the > following parameters: > > host name: IP_HOST_MANAGED > Xen Protocol: ssh_tunnel > username: root > xen port: 8005 > ssh port: 22 > Use ssh keys: enabled. > > > The errors that it is ocurred when try to connect is: (111, > 'Conexi\xc3\xb3n > rechazada') > > > thank by advanced > the best regard > revartj > - > This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move > Developer's challenge > Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK > & win great prizes > Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event > anywhere in the world > http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ > ___ > XenMan-Users mailing list > XenMan-Users@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/xenman-users - This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ ___ XenMan-Users mailing list XenMan-Users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/xenman-users
Re: [convirt-users] Linux_CD_Install does nothing
Hi Thats bit strange... What version of ConVirt are you using ? I think a good starting point to investigate this would be to look in to convirt.log. How to find log file location : 1. When u start ConVirt, you will see a message with location of convirt.conf. 2. Look for convirt.log in that file. /Jd --- On Fri, 7/25/08, Frederick N.

Did u try pressing cttrl-L. The console sometimes has problems with refreshing the screen. The blocked state may just mean that it is waiting for input... which would be appropriate for install waiting for some selections.

Re: [convirt-users] help configuration xenman an obuntu
Hi What version of Ubuntu do you have ? Also make sure that you own the display. To give permission to everyone on local machine access to the display, run the following command with the user with which the desktop was started. xhost + local: You also seem to have bit older version of the ConVirt. Can u please download later / latest version of Convirt from Download link http://www.convirt.net/downloads.html and/or refer to last section on the wiki page. http://xenman.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Xen_ubuntu This should help.

Re: [convirt-users] Fw : Re: help configuration xenman an obuntu
hi did not see the attachment ? Did u forget to attach ? Did u try info on the wiki ? To install ConVirt 0.8.2 on Ubuntu 8.04 (5 short steps): 1. Download packages for suse (convirt-0.8.2-1.suse.noarch.rpm) 2. Install alien (sudo apt-get install alien) 3. Convert ConVirt rpm to deb (sudo alien -d convirt-0.8.2-1.suse.noarch.rpm) 4. Install python-xen-3.2 (sudo apt-get install python-xen-3.2) 5. Install earlier converted deb file (sudo apt-get install convirt_0.8.2-2_all.deb) To run convirt use sudo or gksudo (if you want create activator on bar or desktop. ) /Jd --- On Sat, 8/2/08, mourad tachouche <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > From: mourad tachouche <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: [convirt-users] Fw : Re: help configuration xenman an obuntu > To: xenman-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Date: Saturday, August 2, 2008, 3:20 PM > > > > > > > > > > > thank you for your help > > > > I update my version to convirt 09 > > > my Xen is : xen2.6 > > > > and > the default configuration port is > > > > root @ hypervisor-02: / etc / xen # cat xend-config.sxp | > grep port > > # (xend-port 8000) > > # (xend-relocation-port 8002) > > > > > > but i have an error message when runnig convirt, thank you > to see the attached copy of the e-mail > > > > > > > > > > --- En date de : Sam 2.8.08, jd <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > a écrit : > De: jd <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Objet: Re: [convirt-users] help configuration xenman an > obuntu > À: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Date: Samedi 2 Août 2008, 6h39 > > Hi Mourad, >Lets try to sort this out .. :) > > 1.

Hi Great news. Someone added links to bunch of available ConVirt downloads on ConVirt wiki. We really appreciate this contribution. We are still missing Debian and Ubuntu distros. Hopefully we will soon get the pointers to them as well. For those interested, Please check out the http://www.convirt.net/wiki/index.php/Download. I have also updated the main website download area to have a link to this page.

Did you check your ~/.bashrc or ~/.cshrc to see if the DISPLAY variable is getting unset somewhereCheck /etc/bashrc and /etc/cshrc too depending on the shell that is associated with root user. The config file looks ok.. I mean nothing jumps out as being wrong. Glad to hear that your edit setting problem got resolved.

Re: [convirt-users] Setting up Image Store
I have not tried Ubuntu PV image. I usually use the Linux_CD_Install HVM image and point to the iso. I can think of 2 options : 1. do a create like on CentOS_PV_Image and then find xen kernel and ramdisk that will kick of install and update following values in the Provision tab. kernel_src initrd_src KERNEL_TYPE (used as name space so different kernels do not stomp over each other.) Can any one more from the Ubuntu world point out if such kernel/ramdisk combination are available online ? (i.e. something parallel to http://mirrors.usc.edu/pub/linux/distributions/centos/5/os/i386/images/xen ) 2. -- Create like from CenOS_PV_image -- Use debbootstrap and create a reference PV Ubuntu guest image disk. (there are bunch of articles on internet to do so. ) -- copy the disk image under new image directory. -- then do an edit settings for the image : -- select disk and click properties. -- change option "create new disk" to "clone from reference disk" -- provide the path of the reference disk Hope this helps. /Jd --- On Tue, 11/18/08, Linux ETC General Information <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > From: Linux ETC General Information <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: [convirt-users] Setting up Image Store > To: xenman-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Date: Tuesday, November 18, 2008, 9:48 AM > As a slight heads up a newbie to the list and to ConVirt. > Learning Xen some as well, but moving along pretty decently. > > Have the latest ConVirt 0.9.6 running on a CentOS 5.2 > (x86_64) host/Dom0 with the Xen 3.3 from the gitco repos. > The hardware does not permit full virtualization, so only > paravirtualization can be used here.

Hi Himanshu, Can you please provide some more details. What distro? is it 64 bit ? What version of ConVirt ? Do you know version of Paramiko ?

Re: [convirt-users] ConVirt pause-button
Yes indeed, I was looking for it. This is great. Thanks. Do you know which KVM version would ur patch be in ? I will have to look in to this as this is related to the migration of KVM. During migration, we create a KVM instance with --incoming switch... and when in this state, the monitor remains in the blocked state. i.e. all attempt to give commands would block. To display correct state of the VM, we keep polling the vm status, which would hang. I had read some traffic about changing this blocking behavior during migration. If this is changed, then we can enable the pause/resume feature in the product. Do u know about the migration behavior change I am talking about ?

As the authentication is done via keys..(external to ConVirt..) -- if it is invoked from the right shell, the connection would work. -- if invoked from a shell without ssh-agent, it will fail.

Re: [convirt-users] Convirt on Ubuntu
Hi Andrew I think you probably missed our patched area and some forum discussion on the iscsi problem. There is a patch available that fixes the issues you have in the diff. Andrew, what version of iscsi did u have by default on Ubuntu 8.10 and what did u end up with after the backport. Milind, Any comments on the iscsiadm version problem on Ubuntu ? I will take a look at the log for the hang and see if I can spot anything. Does it happen if you wait for the summary area to be populated and then expand the groups and nodes ? For the migration problem, it seems there may not be corresponding VM config file for the running VM (testvm2). -- when the VM is running on the first node, can you do an Edit Settings for the VM and see config parameters ? -- When u shutdown / kill that VM, does it disappear from the tree ? You may want to select the managed server (vmhost2) and use Import config file(s) menu option and select the config file for the testvm2. Start the VM and try migration. Let us know how it goes, and we can dig further in to it. Regarding Linux Distros : -- We are currently using Fedora with KVM-70 and Cent OS 5.2 with KVM-72 for most things. We do have Ubuntu, SLES, etc.. for testing as well. It would be great, if others can also share their distributions that are working well for them.

Re: [convirt-users] management
Please take a few moment at the features place to see current capabilities. http://xenman.sourceforge.net/features.html -- Backup and restore : From what we have heard, many users prefer their traditional back up systems. -- Snapshots : What are you referring to here ? Currently ConVirt allows the state of the VM to be saved in to a file. The VM can be started again from the saved snapshot. (remember, it is wise not to disturb the VM disk between snapshot and restore.) -- Migration : yes. We do support migration.

Re: [convirt-users] unexpected image sizes
It is showing less than 300 G because it is a sparse file. (all the blocks are not allocated upfront.) The difference on the NFS server *may* be because of the BUG mentioned in the man page. " On BSD systems, `du' reports sizes that are half the correct values for files that are NFS-mounted from HP-UX systems. On HP-UX systems, it reports sizes that are twice the correct values for files that are NFS-mounted from BSD systems.

To work around this, * use the xen 3.0.3 scripts for preparing server for remote management instead of 3.1 * Once prepared as above, you get the following error while discovering the server using Add Node. o To fix this : o Shutdown ConVirt. o ssh into the Managed Server, open /etc/convirt.conf and add use_3_0_api=True under the default section.

Re: [convirt-users] ubuntu client, centos dom0 and a ProtcolError
Hi Ruppet, I see comma in error message.. hope it is only cut-paste error. Where did u run the configure-xend.sh script ? It needs to be run on each dom0 that you want to manage. Are you running a custom port ? 8000? The default is 8005 or 8006. What does netstat -an on the CentOS box say ? You do not need to have the xen kernel installed/running on the client. But you do need some xen client libraries. Milind, would you be kind enough to provide the exact list.

Re: [convirt-users] translation of convirt in French
Hey Sorry for replying late... this one some how managed to get in to my spam folder. This is certainly very useful to the community. Thanks for taking the initiative. Would you mind submitting a patch on top of 1.1 that we can include? Also, it would be great if you could share some details about the process for the translation which others can pick up and provide translation for other languages. As a normal part of the process, please visit the Developer Resources page (http://www.convirture.com/wiki/index.php?title=Get_Involved) and send in a signed copy of the CLA along with the patch.

Re: [convirt-users] Running Convirture in Virtual CentOS Linux installed under Parallels
Hi Sanjay You need to get the Xen client libraries installed. Unfortunately the xen client does not seem to be factored nicely on CentOS and pulls the whole kernel. But you do not need to boot it in to Xen kernel to use ConVirt. So, let it install the required packages, but so long as you do not boot in to Xen kernel, you should be fine under your Parrallel environment. Hope this clarifies it. /Jd --- On Tue, 7/28/09, Sanjay Arora wrote: From: Sanjay Arora Subject: [convirt-users] Running Convirture in Virtual CentOS Linux installed under Parallels To: xenman-users@lists.sourceforge.net Date: Tuesday, July 28, 2009, 1:43 PM XEN newbie. Looking for a GUI Tool to manage my office XEN install (proposed) from any GUI tool to be installed in CentOS v. 5.x running under Parallels v. 4, on my Macbook. I evaluated Convirture & though it suitable as it is able to manage remote servers. However when I tried to install it using yum, I found that it tries to install Xen kernel on the machine running it. In my case this is a Virtual Linux Server running under Parallels. So I thought it is like running a hypervisor inside hypervisor and would not work as each would want direct hardware access. Am I correct? Or can I run convirture without Xen kernel, as I need to manage Xen only on remote machines, not on the local machine running Convirture? If so, is such a rpm version available? And if I cant run convirture within virtualized Linux, can someone please suggest any alternative? With best regards.
