Hi, Anyone have that problem xen installation? [root@xen64-dev ~]# virsh autostart appl error: Failed to mark domain appl as autostarted error: internal error sexpr2string failed root@xen64-dev opt]# rpm -qa |grep libvirt libvirt-client-0.7.0-6.el5 libvirt-python-0.7.0-6.el5 libvirt-0.7.0-6.el5 [root@xen64-dev opt]# rpm -qa |grep xen xen-libs-3.4.2-2.el5 kernel-xen-2.6.18-164.6.1.el5 xen-3.4.2-2.el5 For@ll P.S Maybe newer version libvirt 0.7.4 is working fine?

KVM, network bridge with 2 NIC environment
by rewing 14 Dec '09

14 Dec '09

My server have 2 network Interface Cards (NIC). I just found if I create br0 and add both eth0 and eth1 to br0, I'll get errors: eth1: received packet with own address as source address. .. eth0: received packet with own address as source address. I still don't figure out how to set ifcfg-br0 and ifcfg-eth* to make guest os as a server just like host server in the LAN. can anybody post example for this 3 scripts?

It's valid if you don't need a clean backup. :) Usually, a dump of a snapshot is good enough if it is read-mostly. It's probably better than nothing, although not recommended since there are no guarantees. > probably I need to use dd??

However, if you do that, you will need something acting as the gateway. If your host is going to be the gateway, it will need an address set in ifcfg->br0 and packet forwarding turned on.

I just try the above setting and it wont work!! It seems that I only need Ethernet interface and set br0 as host IP address ,and guest OS have their own IP address. But I have 2 Ethnet Interface, it seems deappreciate netbroadband if I couldn't use one for host and the other for guest? or I have to add more IP address for eth1?

KVM: bridge configuration for static IP address
by rewing 11 Dec '09

11 Dec '09

I need to allocate public IP address to two guest os. I have only 2 network card Interface on server. say eth0 and eth1. I set eth1 a public IP address. so it should in # vi /etc/sysconfig/ifcfg-eth1 DEVICE=eth1 BOOTPROTO=static HWADDR=00:1a:4d:83:ad:00 BROADCAST=202.127.29.0 IPADDR=202.127.29.5 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 NETWORK=202.127.29.0 ONBOOT=yes TYPE=Ethernet Question 1: do I have to add GATEWAY=202.127.29.1 to above setting? now continue to set eth0,seems I would use it as bridge ,so ifcfg-eth0 would be: # vi ifcfg-eth0 DEVICE=eth0 HWADDR=00:1a:4d:83:ad:50 ONBOOT=yes BRIDGE=br0 There's no IP address in this ifcfg-eth0. so Question 2: do I need to add the rest 2 IP addresses in br0? or I should keep br0 with no IP address and set IP in guest OS directly? Could anybody tell me how to set br0 to let host os and 2 guest os all have their own dedicated IP address?

About doing backups with kvm guests
by carlopmart 11 Dec '09

11 Dec '09

Hi all, I have two centos 5.4 servers that I use to run several windows kvm guests (10). All works ok (more or less) but I have a problem with backups. These windows guests are configured to use lvm partitions as a virtual disks. My problem is when I need to do guests backups. which is the best form to backup and restore these windows guests? Some examples? I see snapshot's lvm option, but I think that this option it is not valid for windows guests... probably I need to use dd?? But if i use dd, how can I restore lvm image onto another host with lvm partitions? Thanks. -- CL Martinez carlopmart {at} gmail {d0t} com

Add the VLAN interface to a bridge just for that VLAN traffic and then use that bridge for your guests. -- Christopher G. Stach II http://ldsys.net/~cgs/

Hi All, I'm using xen 3.0 on CentOS 5 with VLAN. #vconfig add eth0 100 #/etc/xen/script/network-bridge start vifnum=1 netdev=eth0 bridge=xenbr0.100 I know that after xen 3.2 the procedure of bridge configuration is changed. What is the correct command to set bridge interface to vlan? Yukio

KVM network bridge setting on centOS
by rewing 09 Dec '09

09 Dec '09

I have a server that will be hosted in IDC. The Server have 2 network interface card. I would like to set one for host os itself. and the other network interface card as bridge for guest OS. Because I have 3 IP address that will allocate to host os and guest os. The host OS will be centos 5.4. I need ideas about how to set host OS's network. Could anybody post a workable network seting for me? because the Centos Wiki page seems out of date about this part. and also I googling a lot, but most instruction in the internet seems out of date too.
