Subject: VM's vif didn't work in Xen 4.2 unstable
To: todd.deshane@xxxxxxx


Hi
    I built Xen-4.2-unstable and kernel-2.6.32.40 on CentOS 5.5
successfully! I also implemented fault tolerance and high avaliability
via remus.

      But I got new problems:

 1. The vif of VM didn't work, when I start a new VM by command: "xm
cr myvm.hvm", system returned message: "the <VM> does not exist".
     my VM's configuration file is:

   ernel = "hvmloader"
   builder='hvm'
   memory = 512
   name = "myvm"
   vcpus=4
   vif = [ 'type=ioemu, bridge=eth0,mac=00:16:3e:3a:7a:dd' ]
   pae = 1
   acpi = 1
   apic = 1
   #disk = [ 'file:/home/xen/tpl/hvm/base.img,hda,w',
'file:/home/xen/tpl/hvm/CentOS-5.5-x86_64-bin-DVD-1of2.iso,hdc:cdrom,r'
]
   disk = [ 'file:/home/xen/tpl/hvm/win.img,hda,w',
'file:/home/xen/tpl/hvm/windows-XP.iso,hdc:cdrom,r' ]
   device_model = 'qemu-dm'
   boot="cd"
   sdl = 0
   vnc = 1
   vnclisten = "0.0.0.0"
   stdvga = 0
   serial = "pty"

     if I deleted the "vif = [ 'type=ioemu,
bridge=eth0,mac=00:16:3e:3a:7a:dd' ]" , the vm started successfully,
but the VM could not access network.
     I have installed the bridge-utilty package properly.
     I checked the /val/log/message, it showed:

   Jul 29 04:04:34vnix06 kernel: [  205.540203] device vif1.0 entered
promiscuous mode
   Jul 29 04:04:34 vnix06 kernel: [  205.545969] eth0: port 2(vif1.0)
entering forwarding state
   Jul 29 04:04:34 vnix06 kernel: [  205.811565] eth0: port 2(vif1.0)
entering disabled state
   Jul 29 04:04:34 vnix06 kernel: [  205.818948] device vif1.0 left
promiscuous mode
   Jul 29 04:04:34 vnix06 kernel: [  205.818955] eth0: port 2(vif1.0)
entering disabled state
   Jul 29 04:04:35 vnix06 logger: /etc/xen/scripts/block: Path closed
or removed during hotplug add: backend/vbd/1/5632 state: 6
   Jul 29 04:04:35 vnix06 logger: /etc/xen/scripts/block:
xenstore-read backend/vbd/1/5632/node failed.
   Jul 29 04:04:35 vnix06 logger: /etc/xen/scripts/block:
/etc/xen/scripts/block failed; error detected.

    could you tell me how to address this problem?

2. The NFS worked well in CentOS5.5, but when I compiled
kernel-2.6.32-40 and Xen-4.2-unstable and got into dom0.
   the NFS didn't work, and could not mount the remote NFS server. I
tried command: "service nfs restart", but the failed.
   I used command: "mount <IP>:/home /mnt", the system returned:

   mount <IP>/home /mnt
   mount.nfs: No such device

   what's wrong?

   I am waiting for your help! thank you very much!
