I kept searching and searching and i found that when i remove the swap device (xvda2) from my domU, then the network works OK.
My config looks like: kernel = '/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-22-xen' ramdisk = '/boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-22-xen' memory = 512 vcpus = 1 root = '/dev/xvda1 ro' disk = [ 'phy:/dev/xen-domains-root/vps78-root,xvda1,w' 'phy:/dev/xen-domains-swap/vps78-swap,xvda2,w' ] name = 'vps78' vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3e:12:de:e4,vifname=vps78,bridge=vlanbr710' ] on_poweroff = 'destroy' on_reboot = 'restart' on_crash = 'restart' extra='xencons=tty1 rootflags=quota' This does NOT work, it results in the "vif mapping shared-frames" message. But when i remove xvda2 from the config file, the domU boots fine and the network also works. When i later on attach xvda2, i get this: r...@vps-pool-01:~# xm block-attach vps78 /dev/xen-domains-swap/vps78-swap xvda2 w r...@vps-pool-01:~# dmesg [2540234.810635] blkback: ring-ref 299, event-channel 8, protocol 1 (x86_64-abi) [2540234.810813] vbd vbd-280-51714: 28 mapping ring-ref 299 port 8 r...@vps-pool-01:~# So it seems i run into a limit of number of mappings that are possible? -- No network connectivity for new domU's (vif vif-247-0: 28 mapping shared-frames) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/341846 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
