CBS tags hierarchy
by Sandro Bonazzola 07 Apr '15

07 Apr '15

Hi, following Cloud SIG example[1] I would like to start defining the CBS tags hierarchy for Virt SIG. For opening the discussion I suggest: - virt${release}-common : packages not related to xen or kvm, used by at least 2 projects - virt${release}-xen : xen hypervisor related packages - virt${release}-kvm : kvm hypervisor related packages (like qemu-kvm-ev) - virt${release}-ovirt : ovirt packages and dependencies, not required by other projects - virt${release}-docker : docker packages and dependencies, not required by other projects Comments are welcome!

xapi on CentOS 6
by Gautam Malu 31 Mar '15

31 Mar '15

Hi, I am a masters student at IIIT Hyderabad. I have applied for gsoc 2015, for xen in a box proposal. As a part of my proposal,I want to deliver xapi repo which can be used to build a custom installer ISO to install CentOS 6 + xen + xapi. Here is my full proposal http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/proposal/public/google/gsoc2015/gautam_m… About building xapi packages for CentOS; I was able to build all xenserver packages with xenserver build root. (https://github.com/xenserver/buildroot) on CentOS 6.6 . This buildroot uses Xen4CentOS repo for xen packages, but it uses custom repo for Ocaml(4.01). The Base repo for CentOS 6.6 have ocaml 3.11. This buildroot required Ocaml 4.x. The gsoc would start in May end, if Ocaml 4.x packages are ready by then, Those could be used to build xapi. Is there any plan to have xapi as part of virt SIG. Is there any time-line for having ocaml 4.x packages in CentOS offical repo. Best regards, Gautam Malu

Centos 7 AMI building scripts
by Andrei DRAGOMIR 30 Mar '15

30 Mar '15

Hello all, I tried to find the scripts that build the official CentOS 7 AMI images, but I cannot find them. Can somebody point me to a source repository for them ? I am trying to build my own CentOS AMIs and AMI building is turning out to be a dark art, and any pointers, or working source code would be really useful. Thank you, Andrei Dragomir. -- /A

Xen in a Box Proposal
by Gautam Malu 27 Mar '15

27 Mar '15

Hi everyone, I am a masters student at IIIT- Hyderabad, India. I have submitted my GSOC proposal for Xen in a Box. I would be great to have some suggestions especially about the porting of xapi on CentOS Abstract: My project goal is to deliver set of scripts preferrably in bash, along with all necessay packages to convert standared installers ISOs into customized ISOs which install CentOS 6 + xen + libvirt + 2 pv VMs running + network configuration. I also plan to deliver xapi rpms which can be used to build a custom installer ISO to install CentOS 6 + xen + xapi. Full proposal: http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/proposal/public/google/gsoc2015/gautam_m… Best regards, Gautam Malu

Re: [CentOS-virt] [CentOS-devel] xapi for centOS 6.6
by Gautam Malu 26 Mar '15

26 Mar '15

Thanks Jon, it worked, I was able to build all the packages for xenserver on CentOS 6.6 final version. Here is the package list: https://gist.github.com/gautammaloo/7616cccbe8f5c85c196e I was wondering what packages would be necessary to use Xen with xapi, I already have xen with xl installed. Could we have a package like http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/xcp-xe with which we can have xenserver running on CentOS, just by switching toolstack from xl to xapi.

libvirt errors after applying RPMS from 2015:X002

Thanks for the info. I am trying to connect to the Xen hypervisor, via a localhost connection defined in the virt-manager configuration. here is the detail provided in the error dialog: ————————— Unable to open a connection to the Xen hypervisor/daemon.

If i start and manage VMs with virsh, the work fine. it just is the virt-manager that seems broken, but that is important for my operation. i just applied the patches to a second machine - just in case it was something about the first one - and the same results. i am not as versed in python debugging as i would like to be, so this will be a challenge. it sure seems like the issue is in the libvirtd library from the error messages - but i will keep poking at it as time permits and post here if i have any answers... thanks. r. > On Wed, Jan 28, 2015 at 09:54:54PM -0700, rgritzo wrote: > > folks: > > > > after applying the updated rpms from advisory 2015:X002 i am having problems with libvirtd, and with virt-manager. > > > > if i run libvirtd in the foreground and look at the error messages, the error i see is > > 2015-01-29 04:45:27.342+0000: 6477: error : virDBusGetSystemBus:1742 : internal error: DBus support not compiled into this binary > > > > Hmm, weird, it works OK for me.. > > > and virt-manager is unable to connect to the hypervisor. this started after i applied the subject patches. > > > > is this an issue with the recent versions of libvirt? > > anybody else seeing this behavior? > > > > What hypervisor are you trying to use?

It's about delivering a custom installer ISO which delivers Xen 4.4 stack on CentOS 6. full proposal: http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/proposal/public/google/gsoc2015/gautam_m… I want to port xapi on CentOS 6 as part of it. There has been some previous efforts to port xapi on CentOS 6 but nothing official, as follows: http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/XAPI_On_CentOS_6 https://github.com/JohnGarbutt/xen-api-devinstall http://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Ceph_and_libvirt_technology_preview i was wondering if there is any other project going on to port xapi on CentOS 6 > CentOS 6.3 with XenServer being fully open source now.

CentOS 6 VM image for paravirtualizaton on CentOS Xen server
by Nico Kadel-Garcia 19 Mar '15

19 Mar '15

I'm looking at a CentOS 5 Xen server that I'd really like to put some more recent VM's. There are reasons not to touch it at the moment, so I can't upgrade it in place today. Has anyone successfully installed a CentOS 6 VM, paravirtualized, on a CentOS 5 Xen server , without significant Xen upgrades? If so, can I get a copy from a reputable source, or one that I can review before using? I'm having a bit of difficulty arranging a PXE enironment to do a paraviirtualized installation with, and there are apparently difficulties doing a paravirtualzed system with CD or DVD installation with Xen.

More build info here: https://cbs.centos.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=8901 docker seems to work fine with golang 1.4 on fedora rawhide and I heard the latest etcd needs at least 1.4.

This is on the latest 4.4.1-7.el6 packages. Thanks! - Nathan

Disable/stop nic in a virtual guest with virsh
by C. L. Martinez 11 Mar '15

11 Mar '15

Hi all, How can I stop/disable a nic in a virtual guest using a virsh command?? I am searching the same effect like if I unplug network cable ... Is it possible?? I have tried with "detach-interface" command without luck. I don't want to remove the nic from guest configuration, only to stop the nic ... Thanks. P.D: Host is CentOS 6.6 x86_64 fully patched.
