Hello there,
I need to create a cloud for my thesis work, platform doesn’t make any difference for me right now, if it is abicloud, opennebula or eucalyptus or any other.

Can you provide me any guidance related to creating cloud, if it is related to opennebula then it will be better for me.

and I’ve read your article related to building cloud using Eucalyptus, but JAVA package, you said is not there, version 21 is available there, so is there any change needed???

Thanking you,
ashish revar

Great instructions! I too had the problem with the console stuck where I couldn’t type anything. Closing XenCenter and re-opening it fixed it for me though.

You could always try with ext4 and see what happens, but I’m pretty sure it won’t work. The sources I’ve used to put together this article point out that it is necessary to use ext3.

Why ext3? I plan to try this, but my Ubuntu virt is already installed with Ext4. Is this merely a preference or would I need to reinstall the virt?

You should first detach xentools.iso before booting the VM. It now sees two possible boot devices: the hard disk and the xentools “dvd player”.

When I follow all instructions (no error messages) I get the following error when I try to boot the ubuntu VM:

Starting VM ‘webserver’ – The bootloader for this VM returned an error — did the VM installation succeed? Error from bootloader: too many bootable disks (2 disks)

Anyone have an idea what could be wrong?

Comment on Changing CPU and memory settings on XenServer VMs by Madhurranjan

Good article!!

Is there a way that the VMs ( lets say Win Server or RHEL) can start up with Xentools.iso ? I want to automate monitoring the IP that the machine gets through DHCP and the VM memory which can be done through Xentools.iso installation but this needs to be separate . I have tried installing xentools and converting it into a template and then instantiating a VM but this process doesn’t work.

Can this be done through API ?

Thoughts ?

Thanks
Madhurranjan
