Re: [Xen-users] Need an Idiot's Guide to Installing Xen & Libvirt on Ubuntu 10.04



This could be only partially related at best, but I think virt-manager also uses libvirt. I remember trying virt-manager on 10.04 and the pvm would disappear from the manager gui's list right after starting it. It would be interesting to see if any of the steps in your guide has a positive effect on that as well.

    Sorry , right after Hardy Heron 8.04
    No Xen Dom0 support in Ubuntu Servers 8.10,9.04,9.10,10.04

    Regarding Libvirt&Virtinst  Xen Support :

    1. Seems to be OK in 9.10
    2. Seems to be broken in 10.04
    View :-
    http://lxer.com/module/newswire/view/135142/index.html

    I might be missing something in 10.04, but virt-install fails to
    launch VNC console
    as it was in 9.10, regardless virt-viewer stays exactly the same.
    Install only (virtinst and python-virtinst)  does allow to run
    virt-install for Xen 4.0 DomUs,
    but vncviewer should be issued manually. DomU doesn't  restart
    automatically
    and requires:-
    # virsh start DomainName
    # vncviewer localhost:0

    Submitting bug to launchpad doesn't make much sense. Xen support
    dropped.
    Libvirt 0.7.5 doesn't seem to  be properly working with Xen, i
    mean virsh behavior
    is strange. It does some things and some doesn't.


    Boris.

        Canonical likes KVM.

            The problem is that some versions of Ubuntu (and possibly
            Debian)
            doesn't have working Xen system, mainly due to lack of
            working dom0
            kernel. Boris' post is a good way to start on Ubuntu.

            RHEL/Centos and opensuse users can simply use bundled Xen
            version,
            which despite being not the latest, is sufficient for most
            server
            usage scenario.
