I have a CentOS (6.8) box running as Dom0 that uses xen-4.6.3-4.el6.x86_64.rpm kernel-3.18.44-20.el6.x86_64.rpm and friends from the virt repo. I can get a basic X environment (Vesa driver) when running in non-Xen mode but, when booting into the hypervisor, that fails. I've tried one suggestion, adding a nopat to the kernel invocation, but that hasn't helpd although I'm sure the full suggestion, which I can no longer find, also mentioned an "mtrr" addition as well. I'm also sure believe I even saw someone get pointed to some "aftermarket" xorg-x11 RPMs that claimed to work better with the Xen4CentOS environment than the standard ones. My ability to search the interweb thing and find this info has clearly fallen to an all time low, so, does anyone on here have a better memory than I do, as regards that stuff ? (Assuming i didn't dream it!)

Upstream libvirt releases for Virt-SIG
by Jiri Denemark 06 Dec '16

06 Dec '16

Hi all, I talked to our oVirt developers who use CentOS for upstream development. And that's what makes their lives hard because it takes a long time before they can start using new features of libvirt. The latest released CentOS version is 7.2 with libvirt 1.2.17, which is pretty old. But even when CentOS 7.3 with libvirt 2.0.0 gets released, it will already be old since libvirt 2.5.0 is just about to be released upstream. So to help them, I'd like to start building upstream releases of libvirt for Virt-SIG. As one of the core libvirt developers and a maintainer of libvirt in RHEL I think I should be qualified enough to do so :-) The goal is to take every upstream release of libvirt soon after it's been released and rebase the current CentOS package on top of it. If it sounds good to you, what should I do to get started? Jirka

Running i386 guests under CentOS7 amd64 kvm host
by C. L. Martinez 01 Dec '16

01 Dec '16

Hi all, Maybe it is a stupid question, but I a totally lost. When I try to configure an ubuntu i386 guest under CentOS7 amd64 kvm host (fully patched) using virt-manager, I can't select what architecture I want to use. If I try to change guest.xml using "virsh edit", I can do it, but guest doesn't starts ... Is it not possible to run i386 guests under CentOS7 amd64 kvm hosts?? Thanks. -- Greetings, C. L. Martinez

Hi, I would suggest to review https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/Virtualization and update it a bit. I think it's a bit outdated. -- Sandro Bonazzola Better technology. Faster innovation. Powered by community collaboration. See how it works at redhat.com

Fwd: Still no C4-8xl for Centos6-HVM AMI
by John Peacock 30 Nov '16

30 Nov '16

I asked back in September about getting the Centos6-HVM AMI updated to support the C4-8XL instance type. Karanbir responded https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-virt/2016-September/005222.html but I still see no evidence this has happened. This is a major thorn in our side and has prevented us from going completely to the C4 instance type , which we need for performance (both CPU and network). Thanks in advance John -- JOHN PEACOCK senior software build and release engineer tel 877-887-3031 mobile 240-429-9334 email john.peacock(a)sparkpost.com

Re: [CentOS-virt] CentOS-virt Digest, Vol 111, Issue 2

I was asking the question since I wanted to find out whether it was possible that a refresh of the CentOS-7 x86_64 AMI would enable the new functionality. I was not requesting for the functionality to be enabled. Regards, Jinesh

CentOS-7 x86_64 AMIs and consistent network device naming
by Jinesh Choksi 04 Nov '16

04 Nov '16

Hello, Re: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7-Be… Are there any upcoming plans for turning off the use of legacy interface names in the next official CentOS 7.x AMI? Currently, both the official RHEL 7.3 GA AMI and the latest available official CentOS-7 x86_64 AMI use legacy interface names via either: - "net.ifnames=0" kernel boot parameter or - "ln -vs /dev/null /etc/udev/rules.d/80-net-setup-link.rules" As I'm setting up some automation which will use the official CentOS 7 AMI, I'm wondering whether to switch on the new naming scheme manually and pre-empt the switch over or wait until the official AMIs switch over. Also, will the next CentOS 7 AMI start using NetworkManager instead of the traditional ifcfg-* scripts? Regards, Jinesh
