If nothing of what I say below helps then please can you run "xl -vvv
create $cfg" and report the full result.

Also can you look under /var/log/xen for files with the name of the
domain in them (mainly qemu-dm-$name.log and xl-$name.log IIRC).

As Kristian pointed out I don't think this does anything but if it did
then you have used vncdisplay=10 in both cases, so you'd be using the
same TCP port and the second qemu to start would therefore fail to bind.

Similarly this will tell qemu to *not* look for a free port to use and
therefore it will use the default vncdisplay, which is 0, and therefore
both qemus will be trying to use the same port and again the second one
to start would fail.

I suspect this is your problem. Try adding vncdisplay=10 to one domain
and =11 to the other (or the distinct display numbers of your choice).

Unless by vncunused=0 you were trying to disable vnc, in which case you
want vnc=0 in both cases. See xl.cfg(5) for more details of the vnc*
options.
