Re: [OmniOS-discuss] Quick Test of r151021 ISO Install using Xen HVM and an "xdf" Device
Hi, I have started out by simply copying the Xen disk image over to a omniOS host, where I attached the disk image using lofiadm. I then immediately tried zpool import -d /dev/lofi, but that didn't output anything. I then ran prtvtoc on the lofi device: root@tr1207410:/tr1207410data01# prtvtoc /dev/lofi/1 * /dev/lofi/1 (volume "lofi") partition map * * Dimensions: * 512 bytes/sector *1449 sectors/track * 1 tracks/cylinder *1449 sectors/cylinder * 46312 cylinders * 46312 accessible cylinders * * Flags: * 1: unmountable * 10: read-only * * First SectorLast * Partition Tag FlagsSector CountSector Mount Directory 0 001 0 67106088 67106087 This is what fdisk says about this volume: root@tr1207410:/tr1207410data01# fdisk -R /dev/rlofi/1 Total disk size is 46312 cylinders Cylinder size is 1449 (512 byte) blocks Cylinders Partition StatusType Start End Length% = == = === == === 1 EFI 0 4631346314100 So… there is something there, but how to mount that sucker?

Will Solaris 11 be able to mount the rpool or is the underlying zpool version too far off? Solaris 11 runs as guest on Oracle VM… Other than that, I could try to transfer the vdisk itself over to a omniOS box and just try to mount there. There was something about some offset, when doing this… with vdisk images, which I vaguely remember… ;) Stephan smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature ___ OmniOS-discuss mailing list OmniOS-discuss@lists.omniti.com http://lists.omniti.com/mailman/listinfo/omnios-discuss

Ha ha… yeah… I will try. Howerver, without any network connectivity, I will be having quite a hard time getting those dumps from the guest anywhere.

[OmniOS-discuss] Quick Test of r151021 ISO Install using Xen HVM and an "xdf" Device
Hey All, I just wanted to post and say that I've tested the new r151021 ISO installer using a Xen VM and was able to successfully perform the installation. Here's a copy of the Xen VM configuration that I used: # cat ami-template.cfg builder='hvm' name='ami-template' vcpus=4 memory=4096 vif=['bridge=xenbr0, type=ioemu'] #disk=[ 'file:/root/psurya/omni-kayak/r151021-kayak.iso,hdb:cdrom,r', #'file:/root/psurya/omni-kayak/ami-template.img,xvda,w' ] disk=[ 'file:/root/psurya/omni-kayak/ami-template.img,xvda,w' ] #boot='d' boot='c' vnc=1 vnclisten='0.0.0.0' vncconsole=1 on_crash='preserve' xen_platform_pci=1 serial='pty' on_reboot='destroy' The only "catch", is I have to set "apix_enable" to 0. I do that using KMDB during the installer (e.g. edit the loader so I drop to KMDB first), and then edit "/etc/system" after the install is completed but prior to the first boot (so I don't have to keep using KMDB for every boot). If I don't set that tuning, the system will "hang" during boot up (this is a problem with illumos and Xen HVM, and not specific to OmniOS or the new ISO). Additionally, I've attached a PNG image with some "zpool" and "format" output from within the Xen VM running after the ISO install (hopefully the mailing list doesn't strip the image from this post).
