Hi All. I posted this over on the OpenSUSE Virtual mailing list, since I use that distro. But I found on the Xen wiki site, http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/MigrationGuideToXen4.1%2B#Toolstack_upgrade_notes so I guess we should post xm->xl migration configuration problems here too, or instead. I inherited an OpenSUSE Version 11.4 Xen host machine here at work. Without too much trouble I finished upgrading it to Version 12.1. The old setup was running using the Xen "xm" toolstack and works like you'd expect. The new setup works ok if I use the "xm" stack as well. I learned that we should move to the "xl" toolstack. I'm trying to do that now and having some problems with networking, but only with the xl approach. I've been running up to date Xen for awhile. rpm -qa | grep -i xen xen-tools-4.1.2_11-164.5.x86_64 xen-doc-html-4.1.2_11-164.5.x86_64 xen-libs-4.1.2_11-164.5.x86_64 xen-4.1.2_11-164.5.x86_64 patterns-openSUSE-xen_server-12.1-25.21.1.x86_64 xen-devel-4.1.2_11-164.5.x86_64 xen-doc-pdf-4.1.2_11-164.5.x86_64 kernel-xen-devel-3.1.0-1.2.1.x86_64 kernel-xen-3.1.0-1.2.1.x86_64 I already setup the networking on the Host to use OpenSUSE configuration. brctl show bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces br0 8000.0052351d5337 no eth0 cat /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-br0 STARTMODE='auto' BOOTPROTO='static' BRIDGE='yes' BRIDGE_PORTS='eth0' BRIDGE_FORWARDDELAY='0' BRIDGE_STP='off' NAME='Motherboard' IPADDR='192.168.1.32/24' BROADCAST='' REMOTE_IPADDR='' NETWORK='' MTU='' ETHTOOL_OPTIONS='' USERCONTROL='no' NM_CONTROLLED='no' cat /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0 STARTMODE='manual' BOOTPROTO='none' BRIDGE='no' The Guest cfg file I'm using for testing is: cat test.cfg name='test' builder='linux' bootloader='/usr/bin/pygrub' disk=['phy:/dev/XenVols/test,xvda,w'] vif=[mac=00:16:3e:12:34:01, bridge=br0 , vifname=vifBR'] vfb=[ 'type=vnc, vncdisplay=1, vnclisten=127.0.0.1'] extra='textmode=1 xencons=xvc0 noirqdebug' on_shutdown='destroy' on_reboot='restart' on_crash='destroy' vcpus=2 maxmem=2048 memory=2048 With a clean-booted Host and no launched Guests, xl list Name ID Mem VCPUs State Time(s) Domain-0 0 1010 4 r----- 86.3 xl create -c test.cfg pyGRUB version 0.6 ââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââ â Xen4 12.1 DomU â â â â â â â â â â â â â â â ââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââ Use the ^ and v keys to select which entry is highlighted.

Am I still missing some part of the configuration changes needed for using the xl toolstack?
