Re: CloudStack with XenServer on single host

Unfortunately you cannot run CloudStack Management Server on a XenServer (or ESXi) Host it is managing. It works for KVM because CloudStack and KVM are running as services on CentOS, CloudStack is not running as a VM on KVM. You do have a couple of options however: Install Virtualbox and then

Re: CloudStack with XenServer on single host

Actually, you can have CS running on a Xen server host that it is running; however it is a little bit tricky, because when you add a xen server, the CS does not load any VM configuration that it already has running. I did that myself in the Cloud that we have in our networking and management lab.

Re: CloudStack with XenServer on single host

Hi Rafael. That's certainly a clever way of getting it to work, however if you were to put the Host into maintenance mode, or reboot it, all the VMS would stop and you would have no way of restarting them. The original poster is new to CloudStack and needs to learn how it works. I don't think

Wouldnt devcloud be a more viable way to get a test bed up on a single machine?? On Mon, Nov 3, 2014 at 12:14 AM, Geoff Higginbottom < [email protected]> wrote: > Hi Rafael. > > That's certainly a clever way of getting it to work, however if you were > to put the Host into maintena

Re: CloudStack with XenServer on single host

Devcloud uses KVM and I assume they want to test XenServer Regards Geoff Higginbottom CTO / Cloud Architect D: +44 20 3603 0542 | S: +44 20 3603 0540 | M: +447968161581 [email protected] | www.shapeblue.com | Twitter:@cloudstackguru

Re: CloudStack with XenServer on single host

I see, the doc states Vbox (and XenServer) most likely a nested deployment https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/DevCloud DevCloud is now capable of using either the VirtualBox (and XenServer) or KVM hypervisors. You only need to choose one of these, and then following either th

Re: CloudStack with XenServer on single host

You are right, I am just using this deployment, because I have an environment with more than 1 server. We actually have 3 clusters, and we spread the system vms (router and etc) and CS vms (database, CS1, CS2 and apache) into different clusters. So, if I for some odd reason I need to restart a ph

Re: CloudStack with XenServer on single host

Thanks for all replies. As Geoff said I am new to the complete topic CloudStack. I worked only with XenServer in the past and now evaluate CloudStack which I think seems to be the better option for XenServer as OpenStack. Of course it should be more easier to create a VM for the management serv

Re: CloudStack with XenServer on single host

Pure Xen deployment is not yet supported (Am I wrong?). When I said Xen in my mail I meant (Xenserver or Xen + XCP). BTW: I use Xen hypervisor with XCP packages or a debian distro in my physical hosts. On Sun, Nov 2, 2014 at 1:44 PM, "Matthias Müller" wrote: > Thanks for all replies. > > As Geo

Re: CloudStack with XenServer on single host

Hi Raphael, I see how with multiple XenServers you could actually run the CloudStack and MySQL VMS on them, and with carefull management move VMs around for Host restarts etc. I agree that one server a cloud does not make, and really even the smallest test environment should have at least two

What happens when you remove a disconnected host?

Hello everyone! I have a question that I am finding hard to answer googling. I have a host that has had some issues. The cloudstack-agent it was re-installed. It currently is in a "Disconnected" state when looking at it in the CloudManger WebUI. It still has VMs running on it just fine. I want t

Running Xenserver on top of KVM or another HV

Hello, I tried running Xenserver on top of KVM with the VMX flag allocated to its VM, but it still complains that it can't run "HVM" guests. Anyone knows a trick around it or what precisely flags it needs to do HVM? Lucian -- Sent from the Delta quadrant using Borg technology! Nux! www.nux.ro

How to Upgrade Virtual Router from 4.3 to 4.4.1

I've performed a complete upgrade from 4.3 to 4.4.1 and followed the instructions perfectly, but my Virtual Router will not start, nor am I able to "upgrade" it. I tried destroying the Virtual Router, starting any VM Instance, and allowing CS to recreate the VR. However that didn't help. The VR st

Re: How to Upgrade Virtual Router from 4.3 to 4.4.1

Those the systemvm template systemvm-kvm-4.4 is mark as ready? on xenserver there is a delay when upgrading the first systemVM while the template is copied to the primary storage. Maybe that's what's happening. On Sun, Nov 2, 2014 at 6:33 PM, Adam wrote: > I've performed a complete upgrade fro

Re: What happens when you remove a disconnected host?

Hi, If there is more than one host please check the vms host id. The vms might have migrated. If not removing the host, VMs in the host will not come back. primary storage for the host also needs to be added again. Thanks, Jayapal On 03-Nov-2014, at 12:03 AM, Brent Clark wrote: > Hello every
