Re: [Xen-users] creating Windows guest VM without display

[Gregory Gee <gregory.gee@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

  Related to that, I have a few questions.

1. Since I am compiling Xen from source, are there libraries that I need?  I am currently running a minimal server install of dom0.  Any flags I need to enable during compile?

2. How can I do an install without running X on dom0?   Or what's the minimum X11 install I can do?

  I am currently running Ubuntu6.06LTS server edition for x86_64.

Thanks,
Greg

Hi Joon,

 

What you need to do is take add this to your config file:

 

sdl = 0

vnc = 1

vncviewer = 1

 

That will allow it to run headless.

 

Cheers,

Tait

Subject: [Xen-users] creating Windows guest VM without display

 

I'm happy I've succeeded in creating Windows 2003 server guest VM on a xen machine.

(if anybody interested in how to, refer to Xen Technical Note V07132006)

 

My further question is: is there a way I can assign a null video device to Windows VM?

I want win server keep working, but not its display (implemented on gnome) on console monitor all the time.
