I realise that CloudStack doesn't use XenCenter: I only mentioned that for comparison with the workflow that we use. I'm still not sure how the user creates the template in the first place. But no, you shouldn't change the dynamic range until you have tools, because without tools the OS of the VM can't know that its memory is being restricted and may crash. > Unable to create Windows VMs using ISO > -- > > Key: CLOUDSTACK-2354 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-2354 > Project: CloudStack > Issue Type: Bug > Security Level: Public(Anyone can view this level - this is the > default.) > Components: ISO >Affects Versions: 4.2.0 > Environment: Build No.#256 > (CloudStack-non-OSS-MASTER-256-rhel6.3.tar.gz) > XenServer6.1 for Host Server, CentOS6.3 for NFS server and CloudStack-Mgr > Server. >Reporter: Minying Bao >Assignee: Harikrishna Patnala >Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 4.2.0 > > Attachments: ISO_Win8.jpg, ISO_XP-Auto-Shutdown.JPG.jpg, > ISO_XP_State.JPG.jpg, management-server.log > > > Repro Steps > Setup the cloudstack environment as normal.

The user can then use this template to create his vms and once they are up and running can install PV drivers on them. Now if this workflow is followed we want to set the dynamic range and static range differently while creating the vm first time say to support memory over provisioning and also future scaling, is that possible without having PV drivers ? Also if you now understand the workflow can you please also answer the above questions please ? > Unable to create Windows VMs using ISO > -- > > Key: CLOUDSTACK-2354 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-2354 > Project: CloudStack > Issue Type: Bug > Security Level: Public(Anyone can view this level - this is the > default.) > Components: ISO >Affects Versions: 4.2.0 > Environment: Build No.#256 > (CloudStack-non-OSS-MASTER-256-rhel6.3.tar.gz) > XenServer6.1 for Host Server, CentOS6.3 for NFS server and CloudStack-Mgr > Server. >Reporter: Minying Bao >Assignee: Harikrishna Patnala >Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 4.2.0 > > Attachments: ISO_Win8.jpg, ISO_XP-Auto-Shutdown.JPG.jpg, > ISO_XP_State.JPG.jpg, management-server.log > > > Repro Steps > Setup the cloudstack environment as normal.

In XenCenter, you are blocked from changing the dynamic range until tools are present. But if you alter the memory properties of a VM with tools, and then create a template from it, it will retain those settings. How are your templates with PV tools created? Can't you set the memory properties when you create that template? > Unable to create Windows VMs using ISO > -- > > Key: CLOUDSTACK-2354 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-2354 > Project: CloudStack > Issue Type: Bug > Security Level: Public(Anyone can view this level - this is the > default.) > Components: ISO >Affects Versions: 4.2.0 > Environment: Build No.#256 > (CloudStack-non-OSS-MASTER-256-rhel6.3.tar.gz) > XenServer6.1 for Host Server, CentOS6.3 for NFS server and CloudStack-Mgr > Server. >Reporter: Minying Bao >Assignee: Harikrishna Patnala >Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 4.2.0 > > Attachments: ISO_Win8.jpg, ISO_XP-Auto-Shutdown.JPG.jpg, > ISO_XP_State.JPG.jpg, management-server.log > > > Repro Steps > Setup the cloudstack environment as normal.

Based on your comment I am assuming that atleast the windows ISOs we will never be able to deterministically find out when the PV drivers got installed. The reason is when we stop the vm from Cloudstack it actually destroys it on the XS and when you are deploying the vm you cant beforehand know whether the template/ISO has the PV drivers correct ? In fact this is true for any template that do not come with PV drivers correct ? We will now have to rely on the user to signal to us explicitly that he has installed PV drivers than finding out ourselves. Also I had one observation to share that while deploying a windows template even though the dynamic_max < static_max it deployed fine for me. Any idea how ? Another question is whether dynamic_max < static_max the only issue if PV drivers do no exist ? Can we deploy a vm with a setting like static_min = dynamic_min = X < dynamic_max = static_max = Memory_overprovisioning_factor * X ? This would be useful for memory overprovisioning. Is this documented somewhere that for DMC to work we need PV drivers and some related readings so that I am more informed on this ?

The reason is that memory overcommit relies on the cooperation of the VM to give back the memory it doesn't need. If you haven't got tools and you reduce the dynamic values while the VM is running, it will not hand back the memory and it will keep running at static_max. However, next time it boots, it will only be given dynamic_max memory, while the VM OS will believe it has static_max available, and this is likely to crash the VM. The correct procedure is to install the tools first, and then reduce the dynamic values to the range you want. > Unable to create Windows VMs using ISO > -- > > Key: CLOUDSTACK-2354 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-2354 > Project: CloudStack > Issue Type: Bug > Security Level: Public(Anyone can view this level - this is the > default.) > Components: ISO >Affects Versions: 4.2.0 > Environment: Build No.#256 > (CloudStack-non-OSS-MASTER-256-rhel6.3.tar.gz) > XenServer6.1 for Host Server, CentOS6.3 for NFS server and CloudStack-Mgr > Server. >Reporter: Minying Bao >Assignee: Harikrishna Patnala >Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 4.2.0 > > Attachments: ISO_Win8.jpg, ISO_XP-Auto-Shutdown.JPG.jpg, > ISO_XP_State.JPG.jpg, management-server.log > > > Repro Steps > Setup the cloudstack environment as normal.

The right design will remove the hard coding. It will set all the values as following static min = service_offering / memory_overprovisioning_of_cluster. dynamic min = service_offering / memory_overprovisioning_of_cluster. dynamic max = service_offering static max = (4 * service_offering) / memory_overprovisioning_of_cluster While scaling "up" the vm say from service offering "x" to "y" we will change dynamic min = new service_offering / memory_overprovisioning_of_cluster. dynamic max = new service_offering and ensure that new dynamic max (y) <= static max and new dynamic min (y / memory_overprovisioning_of_cluster) >= static min. > Unable to create Windows VMs using ISO > -- > > Key: CLOUDSTACK-2354 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-2354 > Project: CloudStack > Issue Type: Bug > Security Level: Public(Anyone can view this level - this is the > default.) > Components: ISO >Affects Versions: 4.2.0 > Environment: Build No.#256 > (CloudStack-non-OSS-MASTER-256-rhel6.3.tar.gz) > XenServer6.1 for Host Server, CentOS6.3 for NFS server and CloudStack-Mgr > Server. >Reporter: Minying Bao >Assignee: Harikrishna Patnala >Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 4.2.0 > > Attachments: ISO_Win8.jpg, ISO_XP-Auto-Shutdown.JPG.jpg, > ISO_XP_State.JPG.jpg, management-server.log > > > Repro Steps > Setup the cloudstack environment as normal.

[jira] [Commented] (CLOUDSTACK-2354) Unable to create Windows VMs using ISO

I have updated the ticket with my findings. Can you please assign it to yourself as you have the better idea about the functionality. --Sanjay > Unable to create Windows VMs using ISO > -- > > Key: CLOUDSTACK-2354 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-2354 > Project: CloudStack > Issue Type: Bug > Security Level: Public(Anyone can view this level - this is the > default.) > Components: ISO >Affects Versions: 4.2.0 > Environment: Build No.#256 > (CloudStack-non-OSS-MASTER-256-rhel6.3.tar.gz) > XenServer6.1 for Host Server, CentOS6.3 for NFS server and CloudStack-Mgr > Server. >Reporter: Minying Bao >Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 4.2.0 > > Attachments: ISO_Win8.jpg, ISO_XP-Auto-Shutdown.JPG.jpg, > ISO_XP_State.JPG.jpg, management-server.log > > > Repro Steps > Setup the cloudstack environment as normal.
