Not entirely a Xen only question but...

I've installed CentOS 5.2 64-bit on a test machine as well as a pair of machines doing DRBD replication between local disk partitions. I've installed and migrated paravirtualized Linux instances and found it *fairly* straight-forward to get all that worked out.

Now though, I have 2 servers with Fibre Channel cards and an FC RAID unit. I've installed CentOS and gotten Cluster Suite and CLVM working and am trying to test further. My DOMU Linux VMs are failing initial install. The stand-alone test machine can still install a domu and they're all trying to pull install media from the same source, another server http serving up the centos dvd.

I config the VM (have also just tried pointing to a local file avoiding the SAN too), start it, select keyboard and network parameters, it DHCPs an address, then hangs...

CTRL-ALT-F3 shows:

04:43:59 INFO       : URL_STAGE_MAIN - url is http://222.222.222.222/install
04:43:59 ERROR   : got to setupCdrom without a CD device
04:43:59 INFO       : transferring http://222.222.222.222/install/images/updates.img to a fd
then it tries /install/disc1/images/updates.img then /install/images/product.img and eventually fails... Those files don't exist on the "install media".

So something about cluster suite or some other difference is at fault here but we've not been able to locate it so far. Any suggestions?

Thanks
