RE: [Xen-users] XCP 0.5.0 VM installation Problem

Yes, it should be possible - you have to create the RAID device (mdadm in case 
you don't have HW RAID adapter) at first (if the disks are occupied with 
existing Storage Repository, you have to safely remove it - xe pbd-unplug, xe 
sr-destroy)  and then create Storare Repository  on that new raid device using 
the xe command in console ( xe sr-create).

Hi,

Instead of replying personally please reply to list, by this it might help 
others to solve similar difficulties.

I use openxenmanager for ubuntu and have no issues it with... however if it is 
not running on windows then try citrix manager for windows.
Installing VNC on XCP wont help as the vnc of VM runs on SSL and in a secure 
way. Its quite different from a regular VNC server client.

another way is to connect to XCP master via web browser and then selecting the 
installed VM. XAPI has the java vnc applet which will connect you easily to VM 
console.

Hope this helps.

Rushikesh

Thanks soo much for replying.

I already installed openxenmanager on my windows xp but console tab is not 
working, if I pressed it my manager hangs and I already tried to create a VM 
using it but actually it did not work and I got tools not installed. I don't 
know what can I do so I preffered to install the VM using CLI but I am not be 
able to connect to it to complete the istallation step.

Should I have to install VNC server on my XCP host. because when I tried to 
connect to my VM I got connection refused and there is no VNC server running on 
my XCP host I saw vncterm procees only. is it enough to connect to my VM.

Please advice.

Thanks agian for your time

Inas

Hi,

Use openxenmanager<http://www.openxenmanager.com/> to see whats going on in 
your XCP pool.
Using it you will be able to install vm and no need of ssh tunnel.

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
