I'm not sure if this is a Koan issue, a Xen issue or an "I'm stupid" issue, but I'm going to start with Koan. :-) I've built a Fedora Core 6 box with Xen and Koan installed. I have another box with Cobbler on it and I'm trying to kickstart a Xen guest domain with Koan. I'm trying to build a RH EL 4 U4 guest (which might be part of my problem.) I have a profile setup using the default.ks file. When I run: 'koan --virt --server=kickstart.mtc.ibsys.com --profile=rh4u4_xen_domU' I get the following output: - processing profile: rh4u4_xen_domU - fetching configuration for profile: rh4u4_xen_domU - url=http://kickstart.mtc.ibsys.com/cobbler/profiles/rh4u4_xen_domU - {'kickstart': 'http://kickstart.mtc.ibsys.com/cobbler_track/kickstarts/rh4u4_xen_domU/ks.c fg', 'name': 'rh4u4_xen_domU', 'virt_ram': 512, 'repos': '', 'kernel_options': 'ksdevice=eth0 lang= vga=788 syslog=kickstart.mtc.ibsys.com:25150 devfs=nomount ramdisk_size=16438 append ', 'virt_name': 'virtguest', 'virt_file_size': 5, 'distro': 'rhel4u4', 'virt_paravirt': 'True', 'ks_meta': ''} - fetching configuration for distro: rhel4u4 - url=http://kickstart.mtc.ibsys.com/cobbler/distros/rhel4u4 - {'kernel': '/var/www/html/kickstart/rhel4u4/i386/isolinux/vmlinuz', 'ks_meta': '', 'breed': 'redhat', 'kernel_options': 'ksdevice=eth0 lang= vga=788 syslog=kickstart.mtc.ibsys.com:25150 devfs=nomount ramdisk_size=16438 append ', 'initrd': '/var/www/html/kickstart/rhel4u4/i386/isolinux/initrd.img', 'arch': 'x86', 'name': 'rhel4u4'} - downloading initrd initrd.img to /tmp/initrd.img - url=http://kickstart.mtc.ibsys.com/cobbler/images/rhel4u4/initrd.img - downloading kernel vmlinuz to /tmp/vmlinuz - url=http://kickstart.mtc.ibsys.com/cobbler/images/rhel4u4/vmlinuz - kernel saved = /tmp/vmlinuz - initrd saved = /tmp/initrd.img libvir: Xen Daemon error : POST operation failed: (xend.err "Error creating domain: (22, 'Invalid argument')") Failed to create domain virtguest Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/koan/app.py", line 97, in main k.run() File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/koan/app.py", line 155, in run self.do_virt() File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/koan/app.py", line 300, in do_virt return self.do_net_install("/tmp",after_download) File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/koan/app.py", line 256, in do_net_install after_download(self, distro_data, profile_data) File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/koan/app.py", line 299, in after_download self.do_virt_net_install(profile_data, distro_data) File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/koan/app.py", line 599, in do_virt_net_install extra=kextra File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/koan/virtcreate.py", line 201, in start_paravirt_install dom = conn.createLinux(cfgxml, 0) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 249, in createLinux if ret is None:raise libvirtError('virDomainCreateLinux() failed') libvirtError: virDomainCreateLinux() failed So, is this a Koan issue? If so, what's happening? Is it a Cobbler issue? Did I not put something in my profile?
