Hi all
i followed this link to install windows under xen
http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2006-06/msg00599.html
my xen file is as follows:
kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
builder='hvm'
memory = 1024
name = "winxp"
vcpus=1
cpus = ""
vif = [ 'type=ioemu, bridge=xenbr0' ]
disk = [ 'file:/root/xenimages/WS128.img,ioemu:hda,w' ]
device_model = '/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm'
cdrom='/tmp/en_windows_server_2003_standard.iso'
boot='d'
sdl=0
vnc=1
vncviewer=0
stdvga=0
serial='pty'
ne2000=0
usb=1
usbdevice='tablet'

this keeps the remote mousepointer better in sync.


also check /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp

if you want to connect to your vnc, the server should listen on all interfaces

(vnc-listen '0.0.0.0')
the default is 127.0.0.1 for security reasons.

alternatively, install a vncviewer in your dom0 and connect via ssh -X to get
X11 forwarded.




and when i do # xm create -c /etc/xen/winxp it gives message as Using config file "/etc/xen/winxp".
Started domain winxp
but when i type
% vncviewer 172.17.217.155:1 <http://172.17.217.155:1>
to vien its console so that i can complete the installation . i am not able to connect to the host using the command and even by using windows agent(vncviewer). am i missing something?
or do i need to start something to view live vncserver.
i also tried starting vncserver but when after starting vncserver.
if i run vncviewer 172.17.217.115:1 <http://172.17.217.115:1> then i am able to connect server but not able to see the installation window to . kindly let me know what to do. and is there any way i can see the installation on the same machine without using any vnc or any other vnc agent. thanks
