Due to ongoing issue with virsh compiled against libvirt 0.7.5 when working with Xen 4.0
Hypervisor. I attempted to downgrade libvirt and related stuff to Ubuntu Karmic's ( well tested version with Xen)
1.Edit /etc/apt/sources.list
Replace:
deb http://ru.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid main restricted
deb-src http://ru.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid main restricted
by
deb http://ru.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ karmic main restricted
deb-src http://ru.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ karmic main restricted
Save
# apt-get update
# apt-get install ubuntu-virt-server ubuntu-virt-mgmt ( from Karmic main)
2. Rebuild and reinstall Xen 4.0 & Tools
3. Reboot
KVM modules fails to load
Revert /etc/apt/sources.list back as it was.
# apt-get
update
You should get system with working virt-install and virt-manager.
Virsh should behave normal ( virsh list is not empty):
root@ServerLnx:/etc/apt# virsh version
Connecting to uri: xen:///
Compiled against library: libvir 0.7.0
Using library: libvir
0.7.0
Using API: Xen 3.0.1
Running hypervisor: Xen 4.0.0
root@ServerLnx:/etc/apt# virsh list
Connecting to uri: xen:///
