Hi,

Sorry for the incomplete command; I do use the # xm console fedora11; but my problem is that I can't find the newly created VM; as I'm in the current directory (/home/xen-testimages) where I have 3 files:

I run the command (#xm create /home/xen-testimages/fedora.11.x86.xen3.cfg).
My problem is, I don't know where the domain fedora11 is being created? I know when I create similar Debian-image(domU); the location goes to /home/xen/domains; but in this Fedora(domU) case where I downloaded the image not created it myself from Xen-create command.
I even created a directory manually on the same location as of Debian domUs but still I'm getting the Error: Domain '/home/xen-testimages/fedora.11.x86.xen3' does not exist."

Thanks for help!

-Jan Muhammad

Hi All,

I have downloaded a Fedora 11 Xen image from (http://stacklet.com/downloads/images/lister/Fedora); after un-tar in a directory and changing kernel boot and disk location to look for kernel and image; I created an image with file and I can see the output of the command:

#xm create /home/xen-testimages/fedora.11.x86.xen3.cfg

"Using config file "/home/xen-testimages/fedora.11.x86.xen3.cfg".
Started domain fedora.11.x86.img"

But when I try to login into the newly created VM with
# xm console /home/xen-testimages/fedora.11.x86.xen3.cfg

The error message says:

Error: Domain '/home/xen-testimages/fedora.11.x86.xen3.cfg' does not exist."

Even copying those Xen cf and image files to the location where my other VMs reside doesn't solve my problem and I get the same error as above.

Any ideas how I can login into the newly created VM? Or what step I'm missing?

PS: My other xen VMs (based on Debian) are located at some other directory and I can easily login to those.

Hello there,

For xm console, you use the hostname, not the config name.
e.g xm console node1 , not xm console node1.cfg
