Thread-topic: [Xen-users] unable to start 7th domU
> Hi,
> I have created 6 domU but after I created the 7th domU, I am not able
to
> start it up.  The error message I get is as follows:

Are you using file backed virtual disks (eg file: instead of phy: or
tap:)? Could you have run out of loop devices? (I can't remember if tap:
uses loop devices or not)

Stop all your domU's, then say:

rmmod loop
modprobe loop max_loop=32

And see if you can load more than 7 DomU's.

James
