[Xen-users] I'm having trouble with networking and various other things, windows HVM, probably xl related

[bob evans <b.evans@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have created a windows 7 HVM with Xen, no networking hardware is detected by 
the HVM. I have NIC set to be hypervisor default, it should be using a bridged 
connection. If I try to specify a particular NIC during HVM creation I am 
presented with the error:

Unable to complete install: 'internal error: libxenlight failed to create new 
domain 'testing''

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/asyncjob.py", line 96, in cb_wrapper
    callback(asyncjob, *args, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/create.py", line 1983, in do_install
    guest.start_install(False, meter=meter)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/virtinst/Guest.py", line 1246, in 
start_install
    noboot)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/virtinst/Guest.py", line 1314, in 
_create_guest
    dom = self.conn.createLinux(start_xml or final_xml, 0)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/libvirt.py", line 2892, in createLinux
    if ret is None:raise libvirtError('virDomainCreateLinux() failed', 
conn=self)
libvirtError: internal error: libxenlight failed to create new domain 'testing'

I think that this is probably related. I notice that since I switched to xl 
from xm a lot of things seem to be broken. I'm able to passthrough PCI devices 
now, but I can't set a specific NIC and I can't reboot the machine from 
virt-manager.  

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/asyncjob.py", line 96, in cb_wrapper
    callback(asyncjob, *args, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/asyncjob.py", line 117, in tmpcb
    callback(*args, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/engine.py", line 950, in reboot_cb
    str(reboot_err)))
RuntimeError: Error rebooting domain: internal error: Failed to reboot domain 
'1' with libxenlight

I'm able to force off the domu but if I ever power it back on it will not be 
able to work with VNC. I need to reboot dom0 to be able to get vnc to work 
again.
