Re: [Xen-users] domU .cfg file



copied the list again.

does your bridge exist when you start the DomU?
or do you at least have /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp configured to dynamically create bridges?

Sorry:
here is my cfg file:

import os, re
arch = os.uname()[4]
if re.search ('64', arch):
arch_libdir = 'lib64'
else:
arch_libdir = 'lib'
kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
builder = "hvm"
memory = 1024
shadow_memory = 8
name = "Window2"
vif = [ 'type=ioemu, bridge=eth0' ]
#vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3e:36:a1:e9' ]
#, type=ioemu, bridge=eth0' ]
acpi = 1
apci = 1
cdrom =[ 'file:/etc/xen/window.iso']
disk = [ 'file:/etc/xen/window.img,sda,w',
'file:/etc/xen/window.iso,hdc:cdrom,r' ]
#disk = [ 'phy:/dev/cdrom,sda7,w', 'phy:/dev/sda8,hdc:cdrom,r' ]
device_model = '/usr/' + arch_libdir + '/xen/bin/qemu-dm'
boot='dc'
sdl = 0
vnc = 1
vncconsole = 1
vncpasswd = ''
serial = 'pty'
usbdevice = 'tablet'


and if I change disk line with #disk = [ 'phy:/dev/cdrom,sda,w',
'phy:/dev/sda,hdc:cdrom,r' ] then it says domain already exists.
xm list also shows the guest domain but in pause (p) state.
