[Xen-users] RE: XCP 1.0 beta -- CentOS 5.5 network installation problem

["Joe Linoff" <jlinoff@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Folks:

 

I think I figured out the basic problem. I am trying to do this work on a subnet. The LAN has multiple DHCP servers and there is an IP conflict.

I will try to separate them using either a VLAN or a router.

 

Cheers,

 

Joe

Subject: XCP 1.0 beta -- CentOS 5.5 network installation problem

 

Hi Folks:

 

I am stuck and need a bit of help. I am trying to install a guest on my XCP server using the following script. Everything works well except at the end when the network address (VM_HTTP=http://10.45.2.1/tcc/os/CentOS-5.5-x86_64) is not found. I verified that the address works on the XCP server. What is going on? Why can’t it see the network address.

 

Here is the script.

 

#!/bin/bash

#

# Make a CentOS 5.5 (64 bit) VM.

#

VM_OS='CentOS 5.5 (64-bit)'

VM_NAME='vm007'

VM_HTTP='http://10.45.2.1/tcc/os/CentOS-5.5-x86_64/'

#VM_HTTP='http://mirror.clarkson.edu/centos/5.5/os/x86_64/'

VM_RAM='2048MiB'

VM_CPUS='2'

XCP_SERVER='10.45.2.101'

XCP_LOGIN='root'

XCP_PASSWD='test'

XCP_ID="-s $XCP_SERVER -u $XCP_LOGIN -pw $XCP_PASSWD"

 

# Get the VM OS template.

echo 'Get the VM OS template ...'

VM_OS_UUID=$(xe template-list $XCP_ID | grep -B 1 "$VM_OS" | head -1 | awk '{print $5;}')

 

echo "  VM Template    : $VM_OS"

echo "  VM OS UUID     : $VM_OS_UUID"

 

# Get the network interfaces.

echo 'Get the network interfaces ...'

VM_XENBR0_UUID=$(xe network-list bridge=xenbr0 params=uuid --minimal $XCP_ID)

VM_XENBR1_UUID=$(xe network-list bridge=xenbr1 params=uuid --minimal $XCP_ID)

 

echo "  VM xenbr0 UUID : $VM_XENBR0_UUID"

echo "  VM xenbr1 UUID : $VM_XENBR0_UUID"

 

# Create the VM

echo 'Create the VM ...'

VM_UUID=$(xe vm-install template="$VM_OS_UUID" new-name-label="$VM_NAME" $XCP_ID)

echo "  VM UUID        : $VM_UUID"

 

# Create the VIFs

VM_VIF0_UUID=$(xe vif-create vm-uuid=$VM_UUID network-uuid=$VM_XENBR0_UUID mac=random device=0 --minimal $XCP_ID)

VM_VIF1_UUID=$(xe vif-create vm-uuid=$VM_UUID network-uuid=$VM_XENBR1_UUID mac=random device=1 --minimal $XCP_ID)

echo "  VM VIF0 UUID   : $VM_VIF0_UUID"

echo "  VM VIF1 UUID   : $VM_VIF1_UUID"

# Start the boot console

# This is from the script sent to me by Mike McClurg [mike.mcclurg@xxxxxxxxxx]

#echo "../bin/tcc-vmvnc.sh -h $XCP_SERVER -u $VM_UUID"

#../bin/tcc-vmvnc.sh -h $XCP_SERVER -u $VM_UUID

echo 'Start the boot console'

VM_VNC_DOMID=$(xe vm-list uuid=$VM_UUID params=dom-id --minimal $XCP_ID)

echo "VM VNC DOMID   : $VM_VNC_DOMID"

 

VM_VNC_PORT=$(ssh $XCP_LOGIN@$XCP_SERVER xenstore-read /local/domain/${VM_VNC_DOMID}/serial/0/vnc-port)

echo "VM VNC PORT    : $VM_VNC_PORT"

 

echo "vncviewer -via $XCP_LOGIN@$XCP_SERVER localhost::$VM_VNC_PORT"

vncviewer -via $XCP_LOGIN@$XCP_SERVER localhost::$VM_VNC_PORT

 

# Debug

#xe vm-list $XCP_ID

 

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

Joe
