Xen project Mailing List

Hi John,

I am having issues in booting the instances.

Yes, I have reconfigured them to use Xen-API drivers.

Since it was a problem related to xapi, I thought

of shooting an email to this list. Folks at OpenStack

mailing list pointed me here. Hence this question.

I followed this link http://openstack.redhat.com/Quickstart
to install OpenStack and configured Quantum on it after

following this link - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packstack_to_Quantum

over a CentOS 6.3 VM

But when I launch an instance from dashboard, it errors out.

I contacted a folk from Citrix who sent me the link I mentioned earlier,

he added that there is a patch that's going to be released on this regard.

This patch may solve my problems.

Second, problem that I am facing is in an error in compute.log which says -

ERROR nova.virt.driver [-] Unable to load the virtualization driver: No module named xenapi

Let me know should you want to have a look at any configurations files on

server at my end. I will share it.

Thank you,

What are the actual problems you are having?

Are you using the CentOS packages?

Have you reconfigured them to use the XenAPI driver as in the docs you link below?

Probably best to follow up on the openstack list.

There are more openstack types listening over there.

Subject: [Xen-API] Installing OpenStack Grizzly on CentOS VM running on XenServer

Hi Folks,

This is my very first post to the list.

I am facing issues in booting an instance from OpenStack because of XAPI issues.

My setup is CentOS 6.3 installed on XenServer 6.0.2 and OpenStack installed on

this CentOS 6.3 VM. So I was asked use xenapi to make things work.
Actually am not very clear as how these driver issues occur.

Can some one make this clear to me ?

A Citrix folk has pointed me to this link in order to make me understand how

pieces communicates - http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-compute/admin/content/introduction-to-xen.html

But am still unclear on this regard.

Help appreciated.

Thank you,
