Since I can't get the network install working I can't reboot. I added vifnum=1 to the network-bridge line in xend-config.sxp.

(network-script 'network-bridge netdev=eth1 vifnum=1')

However, when I look at the Details of the VM when it's started, the dialog says the network is xenbr1 and device is eth0.

Is there anything else I can try?

Thanks for your help thus far,

Cam

vifnum is not set in the VM config file.  I guess that means it is using

the default of 0. Should it be set to 1 or do that matter. Please let me know if other information would be helpful.

Here is the VM config file:

# Automatically generated xen config file
name = "xenby2"
memory = "1024"
disk = [ 'tap:aio:/usr/scratch/xenby/xendisk2,xvda,w', ]
vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3e:71:78:65, bridge=xenbr1', ]
vnc=1
vncunused=1
uuid = "c6e09f72-1009-75a4-a26c-8ad48b626aa5"
bootloader="/usr/bin/pygrub"
vcpus=2
on_reboot   = 'restart'
on_crash    = 'restart'


Thanks,
Cam

Hi,

I am trying to install FC6 under Xen on a cluster node whose ethernet card uses interface eth1. I modified the xend-config to use eth1

(network-script 'network-bridge netdev=eth1')

The installer boots and starts running.  But the installer still
cannot
connect to the http server that has the FC6 installation on it. So there seems to be no networking within the Xen VM.

Here is the output from brctl:

bridge name     bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces
xenbr1          8000.feffffffffff       no              vif1.0
                                                         peth1
                                                         vif0.1

I realize this is a complete noob question, but any help is
appreciated.
Thanks,
Cam
