Re: Windows Server 2003 R2 bluescreen at boot I just tried with a separate 2003 R2 server: 1. Remove the XenServer drivers 2. Reboot 3. move atapi.sys, intelide.sys, pciide.sys pciidex.sys from drivers.cab (and sp2.cab) 4. run mergeide.reg 5. reboot into clonezila 6. clonezilla the boot drive...

Re: Windows Server 2003 R2 bluescreen at boot I remove ide1 and ide2 and tried a boot: same issue I switched ide0 to ide1: same issue I switched ide0 to sata0: same issue I switched ide0 to scsi0: same issue I switched ide0 to virtio0: same issue Gerald

Re: Windows Server 2003 R2 bluescreen at boot Sorry for not answering the second part. I do have ACPI enabled. Disabling it caused the system to stick at the text progress bar, just before the Windows logo pops up. Gerald

Re: Windows Server 2003 R2 bluescreen at boot Nope, can't even get into safe mode. I do keep the bluescreen around now, instead of resetting. Definately a 0x0000007B. Gerald

Re: Windows Server 2003 R2 bluescreen at boot That looks like something to do AFTER the VM is booting. I can't boot yet. Did I misunderstand something? Gerald

Hi, I just moved a Windows 2003 R2 Server from Citrix XenServer to Proxmox KVM. I first uninstalled the XenServer tools, than installed the mergeide.reg package. Using Clonezilla to copy the drives to KVM. When I boot, I believe I'm getting the '0x7B' error, but the bluescreen flashes by so...

Hi, I attached an iSCSI device (Ubuntu running iSCSI Enterprise Target), and added LVM on top of it. I created a volume and formatted it ext4, in order to do a dd test (hammering writes on the drive to get speeds). The dd test failed with disk errors. I was unable to fsck the volume, so I...

Hi, I guess this can be a generic question as well... I have several para-virtualized VM's under XenServer, and I'd like to move them to KVM. Xen doesn't boot the kernel in the image, in fact, I'm not sure the XenServer VM even has a bootloader. I've tried Clonezilla to move the VM's, and it...

I'm using XFS on the NFS Server, ext4 on the vm's.

The error I get when creating an 8GB qcow2 disk file is: TASK ERROR: create failed - unable to create image: got lock timeout - aborting command and I get a 7GB file created.

Hi, If I try to create a vm with qcow2, or restore a VM, to my NFS storage, Proxmox 3.0 keeps on giving me timeouts. I was running NFSv3, then switched to NFSv4 to see if that helped the issue. It didn't. This is my NFS storage: root@proxmox:/mnt/pve/Images/images/108# time sh -c "dd...

backuppc does file level dedupe.

I use glusterfs for VM storage backend on my Citrix XenServers. I'm using the GlusterFS NFS server (not kernel NFS server) and uCARP for IP failover. Since I'm using NFS, replication happens server side, not client side. My speeds are comparable to my old iSCSI setup...

I've ended up using NFS for a Citrix XenServer storage system, with failover. I use GlusterFS replication to maintain 2 storage nodes, and GlusterFS's NFS server to serve them with uCARP for IP failover. My speed tests with GlusterFS NFS vs iSCSI is here...

I use GlusterFS with it's built-in NFS server for Citrix XenServer, and get pretty good speeds. I'm currently replicating two storage nodes, but it can be expanded to three or more as well.

Now that I think about it, hcp doesn't solve my zero downtime snapshots, since my VM's are on an NFS server. Citrix XenServer does zero downtime NFS snapshots, and I REALLY got used to them.

Thanks! Not sure how I missed that...

Would it be possible to integrate hcp http://wiki.r1soft.com/display/LTR1D/hcp with NFS backups? With it, it should be possible to do zero downtime NFS snapshots. My problem is I don't know how Proxmox does snapshots, so if someone can point me in the right direction... Gerald
