Hi,

I installed XCP 0.5.0  on 5 servers, created a resource pool, joined all hosts to that pool but

I am facing a problem connecting to my Centos VM, I followed the guide for how install Centos 5 on XCP but the last step "VNC and perform the OS installation" I am not sure if I did it right, I installed vncviewer on my local machine and I tried every thing to connect to my VM but  I got connection refused!! 

my steps to install a VM:

xe vm-install template="CentOS 5.4 (64-bit)" new-name-label="Vm 1"

sr-uuid=xxx-xxx-xxxxxxxx

I got vm_uuid, then:

xe network-list bridge=xenbr0 --minimal

I got a network id,then

xe vif-create vm-uuid=xxx.xxx network-uuid=xxx.xxx mac=random device=0

xe vm-param-set uuid=xxxx.xxx.xx 

other-config:install-repository='http://vault.centos.org/5.4/os/x86_64/'

Is that URL right?

then the prompt back to me and then I started the VM:

xe vm-start uuid=xxx.xxx.xxxx

 but I am not sure if the installation is done or not but when xe vm_list Vm 1 is running

but I am not be able to do any thing else

Thanks for any help

Hi,

I just replicated what you did and got the CentOS running. Those commands you typed are just for starting the install process of the VM. After the VM is running (you can verify with xe vm-list power-state=running) you have to vnc the new VM. I used to do this with  ssh -R (see http://xen.insert-coin.org/doku.php?id=conexion_gui_a_las_maquinas_virtuales. it's in spanish.. but it's easy to read :P)

I used a local centos repository we have at work, but vault.centos.org is OK.

Cheers.
