OK, I’m using (or trying to use) Xen on FC6,
everything completely bog standard. I’m obviously really missing
something because I’ve been going nowhere. I can fire up the vm manager GUI, configure a new vm,
drop FC6 on it (and obviously see the domain-0), both the Xen demons are
running. However, after the vm tries to reboot during the install, it *disappears* from the vm manager, and try as
I might I can’t find a way to restart the vm. So then I tried saving the sate of the vm before
rebooting it, using the “save” menu item, which I presume squirts
some kind of state image to disk. However, I can’t get on the console of
a saved and restored machine using the virtual machine manager, I just get a
message saying “The console is currently unavailable” despite the
fact that the vm manger quite happily says the vm is running. Also, the vm manager *deletes* the state image without offering you the opportunity
to preserve it as soon as you “restore” it! I think the menu terminology used for this user
interface is not very well thought out really. Perhaps “Irretrievably Break”
would be a better label than “Restore” on the menu for this item? Anyway, I’m sure it’s all good stuff, I
just need to find out how to make it work before chucking the computer off my
fifth floor balcony. Any advice gratefully received…. Cheers Ben |
