Re: [Xen-API] RE: [Xen-users] Xen Cloud Platform disaster
Hi Dave,
Thanks for your fix. When (exact date) the .isos will be available? Are you thinking in end of January or before? I am starting my infrastructure virtualized with XCPÂexactly this week.ÂI worked in middleware software for integrate the XCP using XAPI, Switches, Balancers and monitoring using an API devellopedÂinternally. If you can let me know about the it I'll be glad. Â
Thanks in advance, On Tue, Dec 29, 2009 at 9:36 AM, Dave Scott <Dave.Scott@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
Hi,
Â
Iâve updated the patched xapi binary to fix an issue where
migration/suspend/resume would fail with a spurious âPV drivers out of
dateâ error. The link is still the same: The md5 of the new file is 3895f81600cf1c84519d76ac6fbaa5ff.
Â
Again the procedure to install it is:
1.ÂÂÂÂÂÂ
service xapi stop
2.ÂÂÂÂÂÂ
copy the file to /opt/xensource/bin/xapi
3.ÂÂÂÂÂÂ
chmod +x /opt/xensource/bin/xapi
4.ÂÂÂÂÂÂ
service xapi start
This should be done on all hosts.
Â
I still aim to update the XCP .isos in January to include these
fixes (and lots more)
Â
Thanks,
Dave

Hi,
Â
I investigated and discovered that I removed most but not all of
the licensing code L The âfeature restrictionsâ were disabled but the
license expiry check was still present. Iâve pushed a patch to xen-api.hg
to fix this.
Â
Iâve compiled a custom xapi binary which is: build 20719
(the one on the website) plus this specific patch. The binary is here:
Â
http://www.xen.org/files/XenCloud/Software/20719c/xapi-no-expiry
Â
if you copy that to /opt/xensource/bin/xapi, make sure you
âchmod +xâ it, and the restart xapi it should work. The binary
needs to be changed on all hosts.
Â
I installed a 20719c build, installed a VM, pushed my clock
forward, reproduced the failure, installed the new xapi and verified the VM
could be started.
Â
Iâll aim to update the XCP binaries on the website in
January to include this fix.
Â
Sorry about that,
Dave
Â

Vern:
Â
The licensing components from XCP should have been removed and
this not occur. I have added the xen-api list to this email so the developers
can be aware of the situation and offer their guidance. Thanks.

Well, I made the mistake of shutting
down my XCP cloud tonight not knowing that XCP licenses expire every 30 days
and expired licenses prevent any VMs from being started (and not having any
procedure listed anywhere to get a new license). So I reinstall XCP on one
machine, get a new 30 day license generated, import the pool data base so the
VMs are back and discover it sets the damn license back to the expired date!
So now I'm down totally. I can't start anything, I can't restore anything, I
can't regenerate a new license for any of the machines without abandoning
everything. Is there ANY way to get a new license on these without starting
over from ground zero?
