Hi all, I'm setting up a virtualization software on CentOS, using virt-manager, KVM, qemu and Xen When I want to create a VM, paravirtualized mode isn't possible (ie it is grey) What should I do to use xen paravirtualized mode ? i figured that xen is not running but /etc/init.d/xend start doesn't work xen and xen-kernel are installed on the machine (rpm -qa | grep xen replies : xen & xen-kernel) thanks for all help

Did you actually boot into Xen?

Please check /boot/grub/grub.conf
Xen hypervisor is a baremetal hypervisor, meaning you have to _boot_ into it (xen.gz).
Xen hypervisor will then launch dom0 ("domain 0") Linux, which is used to manage the system. dom0 Linux kernel needs to be special xen-aware kernel, called kernel-xen in rhel/centos.
So yeah.. normal kernel-PAE doesn't run as Xen dom0. kernel-xen is always PAE enabled on 32bit, 64bit doesn't require/use special PAE kernels.
