Greetings! I'm teaching in the Linux Administration program at Seneca College, Toronto -- this is a graduate certificate program in Linux system administration (http://isa.senecac.on.ca). This semester I'm adding a special emphasis on virtualization using Xen (and possibly KVM) on top of FC6. Seneca has generously provided a fantastic cluster for us to experiment on; each node is a Core 2 Duo with 4 GB of RAM, the nodes are connected with gig-E, and a fibre channel SAN will be added in a few weeks. Initially, we only have ssh character-mode access to the cluster; ssh tunneling is being set up. My hope is that the student's work on this cluster will result in several meaningful contributions back to the Xen community (and Fedora Xen community in particular) in areas such as rapid provisioning tools, detailed configuration benchmarks, and migration-control tools. Unfortunately, we're having a rough time getting FC6 guests installed via virt-install/xenguest-install. When attempting to install the x86_64 version, I get this: ======================= Starting install... libvir: Xen Daemon error : POST operation failed: (xend.err "Error creating domain: (22, 'Invalid argument')") Failed to create domain ct001 ======================= And when I try i386 I get: ======================= ...Installation proceeds, minstage2 starts, Welcome message appears, and then... Searching for Fedora Core installations... ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at arch/i386/mm/hypervisor.c:197! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP last sysfs file: /block/ram0/dev ======================= Any recommendations/pointers/suggestions appreciated! -- Chris Tyler School of Computer Studies, Seneca@York -- Fedora-xen mailing list Fedora-xen@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-xen
