Hello everyone,

I've been, during the past few days, trying to run domUs backed by LVMs, so far without success.



Here's what I get:

# xm create -c /usr/pkg/xen/conf/netbsd50.conf
Using config file "/usr/pkg/xen/conf/netbsd50.conf".
Started domain netbsd-pv
: Intel 686-class, 2405MHz, id 0x6fb
xenbus0 at hypervisor0: Xen Virtual Bus Interface
xencons0 at hypervisor0: Xen Virtual Console Driver
xencons0: using event channel 2
xbd0 at xenbus0 id 1: Xen Virtual Block Device Interface
xennet0 at xenbus0 id 0: Xen Virtual Network Interface
xennet0: MAC address aa:aa:00:c4:aa:f4
(domU becomes unresponsive)


If I replace "disk = [ 'phy:/dev/mapper/vg00-lv0,0x1,w' ]" with disk = [ 'file:/usr/pkg/xen/netbsd.img,0x1,w' ], it will boot perfectly.


Nothing interesting in the logs.. (xend.log)

Anything in the xenbackendd.log or dmesg output ?



xenbackendd.log and dmesg (relevant part) after removing all xen logs, rebooting, reactivating the LVs (lvm vgchange -a y) and launching domU:


# lvm vgchange -a y

# pwd && wc -c xenbackendd.log
/var/log
      0 xenbackendd.log


# xm create /usr/pkg/xen/conf/netbsd50.conf
Using config file "/usr/pkg/xen/conf/netbsd50.conf".

dmesg:
