Hello Xen user list. This is to request installation help for
a Xen 3.1 guest domain. Xen installation source was CentOS 5.1 DVD. Dom0 and a
guest (clientdom) have been installed, but clientdom cannot be connected to. Issuing
command “xm create -c clientdom” generates message lines:
Using config file "./clientdom".
Started domain clientdom
xenconsole: Could not read tty from store: No such
file or directory
”xen top” shows clientdom (as well as Domain-0) started,
but “xm console clientdom” produces the same error, “xenconsole:
Could not read tty from store: No such file or directory.”
Here’s my clientdom file:
name = "clientdom"
uuid = "6bf7a6a0-d5c6-463e-a395-6d689a1819c5"
maxmem = 256
memory = 256
vcpus = 1
builder = "hvm"
kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
boot = "d"
pae = 1
acpi = 1
apic = 1

device_model = "/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm"
sdl = 0
vnc = 0
vncunused = 0
vncdisplay = "-5900"
disk = [
"phy:/dev/VolGroup00/client,hda,w","file:/tmp/Centos5.1.iso,hdb:cdrom,r"
]
#vif = [ "mac=00:16:3e:57:66:7d,bridge=xenbr0,type=ioemu"
]
vif = [ "mac=00:16:3e:57:66:7d,bridge=xenbr0" ]
serial = "pty"
Several instances of the symptom have been encountered before,
due to incorrect locations for hvmloader and qemu-dm, which seem to be in the
correct locations in this case (/usr/lib/xen/boot & /usr/lib/xen/bin respectively).
Has anyone else run into this and resolved it? Any advice
greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Hamid.
