Unfortunately, no one has been maintaining the virtualbox support to my knowledge for a while now..
From: Petar Forai <[email protected]> To: xCAT Users Mailing list <[email protected]>, Date: 11/07/2011 01:24 PM Subject: [xcat-user] xCAT 2.6.x and VirtualBox 4.1.x woes Dear List, What is the status of the xCAT support for having machines inside of VB? After reading the docs I was able to get a small demo setup running, though the vbox SOAP API seems to have changed too much for xCAT's vbox plugins. I've encountered A quick note of my setup: The machine `master` is running the xcatd and machines node{01,02,03} are setup through the vm table and I generally followed the VirtualBox step-by-step guide. When trying to run rpower this is the output I get: master:~ # rpower vbox status Error: node01: VM node01 not known by the web service @ http://192.168.56.1:18083/. Error: node02: VM node02 not known by the web service @ http://192.168.56.1:18083/. Error: node03: VM node03 not known by the web service @ http://192.168.56.1:18083/. master:~ # Any idea of that should even work?!
