Hello,I followed this thread on the list archives.
I've just installed Fedora 18 and now I want to run the VM images I previously run on Fedora 16 (xen 4.1 + libvirt).So, I would like to know what is the current status of xen/libvirt integration.
From the xen wiki (http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Fedora_Host_Installation), it seems that it is still unsafe to use libvirt with the xl toolstack.
But the last update is on Febraury 2013. So some time is passed.Is it still true?Furthermore, do you know what changes one has to do to a libvirt VM configuration XML file that was used to define VM for the xend toolstack?
Thank you very much for the help!Best,
Hello,
Just to add some other info.
I've tried to use the xend toolstack in the way suggested in the Xen wiki and in this thread.
1. Disable SELinux (just in case...)
2. Removed libvirt-daemon-driver-libxml package (rpm -e --no-deps ...)
2. Removed libvirt-daemon-driver-libxml package (rpm -e --no-deps ...)
3. Enabled/started xend via systemctl
4. Rebooted the host
After the boot I've done some safety check:
$ systemctl is-enabled xend.service
$ systemctl is-enabled xend.service
enabled
$ ps -furoot | grep -i xen
root 31 2 0 17:20 ? 00:00:00 [xenwatch]
root 32 2 0 17:20 ? 00:00:00 [xenbus]
root 523 1 0 17:20 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/xenstored --pid-file /var/run/xenstored.pid
root 592 1 0 17:20 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/xenconsoled --log=none --log-dir=/var/log/xen/console

$ ps -furoot | grep -i xen

root 705 1 0 17:20 ? 00:00:04 /usr/bin/python -Es /usr/sbin/xend
Then I've tried the following command (as root)
$ virt-install -v -c iso/CentOS-6.4-x86_64-minimal.iso --ram 1024 --disk path=./images/test-c63_64-xen.img,size=10 --name test-c64_64 --graphics vnc --debug
$ virt-install -v -c iso/CentOS-6.4-x86_64-minimal.iso --ram 1024 --disk path=./images/test-c63_64-xen.img,size=10 --name test-c64_64 --graphics vnc --debug
And I got the following error
libvirtError: POST operation failed: xend_post: error from xen daemon: (xend.err 'Device 768 (vbd) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working.')
Any idea?
Thanks,
