[virt-tools-list] RE: [Xen-devel] Virt-manager issue resolved

Fri Oct 30 05:31:23 UTC 2009

 Latest virt-manager doesn't work with the previous version of libvirt on fc11. You need to build xen and latest libvirt form rpm. Follow the steps below.

Install packages required by
rpmbuild:-
# yum install transfig texi2html libaio-devel
dev86 glibc-devel.i586
Download
xen-3.4.1-1.fc12.src.rpm
# wget
http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/xen/3.4.1/1.fc12/src/xen-3.4.1-1.fc12.src.rpm
#
rpm -iv xen-3.4.1-1.fc12.src.rpm
# cd /root/rpmbuild/SPECS
#
rpmbuild -ba ./xen.spec
To install hypervisor and
tools
# cd ../RPMS/x86_64
# yum install
xen-3.4.1-1.fc11.x86_64.rpm \
xen-debuginfo-3.4.1-1.fc11.x86_64.rpm
\
xen-devel-3.4.1-1.fc11.x86_64.rpm
\
xen-doc-3.4.1-1.fc11.x86_64.rpm
\
xen-hypervisor-3.4.1-1.fc11.x86_64.rpm
\
xen-libs-3.4.1-1.fc11.x86_64.rpm
\
xen-runtime-3.4.1-1.fc11.x86_64.rpm
To install new libvirt-0.7.0-6
#
cat > /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-virt-preview.repo <<
EOF
[virt-preview]
name=Virtualization Rawhide for Fedora
11
baseurl=http://markmc.fedorapeople.org/virt-preview/f11/\$basearch/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
EOF

#
yum install libvirt libvirt-python python-virtinst \
virt-manager
virt-viewer

# rpm
-qa|grep
virt
the following list must be there may be with higher version numbers.
libvirt-client-0.7.0-6.fc11.x86_64
libvirt-python-0.7.0-6.fc11.x86_64
virt-viewer-0.2.0-1.fc11.x86_64
virt-manager-0.7.0-5.fc11.x86_64
libvirt-0.7.0-6.fc11.x86_64
python-virtinst-0.500.0-1.fc11.noarch

All the above steps should be done on the base kernel. Now compile and build xen with paravirt kernel. Now boot into the new xen kernel after starting xend run this 

# xm infoto check. now you can use virt-manager in your set-up

Could you summarize the
procedure? I am trying to run virt-manager on Fedora 11 with Xen-3.5-unstable
and Jeremy’s Dom0 (git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/Jeremy/xen.git).
I am wondering what option should be good on make on xen-3.5-unstable. I did 

Make xen tools 

Make install-xen
install-tools 

What else I need do? 

Booting dom0 is fine.
