First, thanks for your replies. I appreciate your help. I'd already
been doing all of this to start with. I just couldn't get the
corresponding network interfaces in the DomU's to be created.
I finally figured part of this out just seeing that you were telling me
to do the same things I'd already been doing. That made me look
elsewhere because I thought I'd been doing something wrong in this area.
It turns out I just needed to use "xm network-attach domain.name
ip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx bridge=bridge_name" to create the extra interface in
the DomU's, and then do an ifup on that interface.
So far, so good. However, bringing up this second interface (eth1) in
the DomU creates a problem for the existing eth0. There is now no
network connectivity to or from eth0. ifconfig shows both interfaces as
being configured and if I do an ifup on eth0 it is reported as already
configured. I can ping eth0's ip address from within the DomU but
that's it.
As soon as I manually detach the eth1 network from the DomU using "xm
network-detach domain.name device_id" the default network interface,
eth0, begins to function again as it should.
