Re: [Xen-users] problem with xen cloud installation on a shared storage

[Peter den Hartog <peterdenhartog@xxxxxxxxx>]

One more question, or actualy a problem.. After the upgrade the webinterface is gone (?) How do i deploy new virtual machines now? I know there are some projects for connecting to your cloud, but i didn't found one yet that realy worked for me.. any pointers about this?

Thanks,

Peter

I use 0.1.0 at this moment and only see a debian etch folder, in the
tools folder on the cd :), so i think that's the problem :-).. So you
have 0.1.1 and see debian-lenny folder?

Thanks,
Peter

   Also, if you're really using the xs-tools 0.1.0, make sure you're
   actually using XCP 0.1.0 and not 0.1.1, otherwise the PV drivers
   will be out of date and not work.

       Oke i installed the tools and now atleast the system still boots :P

       I do get the following message while installing:

       I press Y but i think there is still something missing now, i
       can't do
       the live migration:

       /[root@node1 iso]# xe vm-migrate vm=lenny-test
       host=xenserver-kkevwpvj
       --live/
       /You attempted an operation on a VM which requires PV drivers to be

       /vm: ac42865b-2088-c6b5-b147-d1cd8e599f3e (lenny-test)/
       /[root@node1 iso]# /

       Could you tell me how you fixed this :-)? i've installed the kernel
       headers, and created a symlink from ./debian-lenny to that
       kernel source
       but that doesn't seem the solution.

       Thanks,

           Hi Vern,

           Thanks alot for your input, i'll create a new Debian vm and
       unpack
           everything on my NFS server :), that sounds like a good solution
           anyways :-). I just tabbed till i found some commando's pressed
           enter and it seemd to work :P, not knowing that it will
       destroy my
           vm later on :-).

           I'll try it again your way, thanks!

               I've never been able to get the xvdd method to work. If I
               remember the manual correctly, you shouldn't be adding
       the iso
               that way anyways, the tools iso is "supposed" to show up
               automagically as /dev/xvdd in the VM (virtual machine
               installation guide, page 27, installing the Linux guest
       agent).

               What I did was to unpack the iso on a share on my NFS
       server and
               mount the share from the VM to do the installation.

                   Oke now it works, it was installed, and i wanted to
       try live
                   migration..
                   so i added the xen-tools iso to the vm with the
       following
                   command:
                   /[root@node1 ~]# xe vm-cd-add cd-name=xs-tools.iso
       vm=lenny-test
                   device=xvdd/

                   After that, i mounted the iso, in /mnt and i could
       run the
                   installer,
                   after the installer i got a message i should
       reboot.. so i
                   did.. and now
                   i get the following message trying to start my vm ->

                   /[root@node1 ~]# xe vm-start vm=lenny-test
                   on=16cae97a-e00d-469d-afc8-e1764c499b42/
                   /The bootloader returned an error/
                   /vm: 4f0a9956-5cbd-6315-0fc7-89c1b2252370 (lenny-test)/
                   /msg: Error from bootloader: too many bootable disks
       (2 disks)/
                   /[root@node1 ~]# /

                   any pointers :-)?

                   Thanks,

                       Make sure the VM is running on the pool master,

                   where I
                       can't make a console connection to a VM if it's

                       Temporary fix for this is to make sure the VM
       starts for
                   the first
                       time on the pool master with vm-start on=(pool
