Hello,
I am running Xen 3.0.2 in an Ubuntu 6.06 Linux system (kernel 2.6.16-xen).
Xend is running and works well.
I would like to use Xen to run about 80 domains (for testing purpose). All
domains share the same image file (which therefor is mounted 'readonly' by
Xen) and each domain is configured to use only 10 MB of RAM. I am using a
script to generate name, hostname and IP address for each guest (it simply
loops over i and calls:'xm create name=guestdom$i hostname=$i ip=192.168.1.
$i').
Everything works fine, but after 25 concurrent running domains Xen refuses to
create any further domains, giving me the error:
Error: Device 769 (vbd) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working.
On this mailing list I found several threads dealing with this error message.
However, I did not find that anybody is facing this kind of limitation that I
have. For your information, the number of loopback devices in my system is
132. Also, I am not running out of memory, this would be stated by Xen (I
have 1500 MB of RAM, where 500 MB are occupied by Xen).
I can remove a guest domain and create a new one, this is no problem. However,
on my system I am not able to create more than 25 domains at the same time.
Can anybody help please?
Thank you very much, all ideas are appreciated,
Thomas
