[Xen-users] Network Problem in domU under OpenSUSE 10.0

[higgers <hpq8bfr.mailing.lists@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

Now that I've got my domU running under OpenSUSE 10.0 I have an issue with 
setting up eth0 in the domU.

The xenbr0 bridge is setup correctly in the dom0:

# mnemosyne:/etc/xen # brctl show
bridge name     bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces
xenbr0          8000.feffffffffff       no              vif0.0
                                                        peth0
                                                        vif4.0

However, there is only the lo interface in domU:

xenos10:/etc/sysconfig/network # ifconfig
lo        Link encap:Local Loopback
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0
          inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:16436  Metric:1
          RX packets:13 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:13 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
          RX bytes:1135 (1.1 Kb)  TX bytes:1135 (1.1 Kb)

The contents of /etc/sysconfig/network in the domU is:

xenos10:/etc/sysconfig/network # ls
.   config  if-down.d  ifcfg-lo        ifroute-lo  scripts
.  dhcp    if-up.d    ifcfg.template  providers   wireless

However, executing rcnetwork restart in the domU produces the following:


xenos10:/etc/sysconfig/network # rcnetwork restart

Is this normal?

I have tried using ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.3 up in the domU but get an error 
that the device does not exist.

I thought that a network interface would be created in the domU due to the vif 
line in the domU config file?

How can I create eth0 in the domU?

Thanks again,

Steve.
