Re: [Xen-users] Failure in creating PV guest VM

["Jihed M'selmi" <jihed.mselmi@xxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry for that, I don't know how I did it.

I am familiar with centos but xen 4.1.2 on ubuntu were easier to start with.

Yesterday, I switch to ubuntu and everything went fine (in creating this example).

After installation, the VM was not on list (xl list) however in the beginning it was there with state -r-----. Anyway, I'll update you with more details once, I back to my machine.

I am familiar with vmware, what is the best tool like vCenter ??

Thank you for you support you and the rest of the team.

Best Regards

J

You dropped the list from the CC, please don't do that. I've added it
back for you this time.

Did you make sure there was no existing xenconsoled running?

The -v shuld go before the command, and I would recommend -vvv for
maximum verbosity, e.g. "xl -vvv create ..."

Why are you using -f? Did you read the message produced when you ran xl
without it?

So what was in it?

I'm largely agnostic, I would recommend sticking with what you know.
Ubuntu is a perfectly reasonable choice.
