Description Tim Boyer 2006-10-20 19:22:50 UTC
Description of problem:

When taking baby steps on getting a xen client going, the error 
message 'Error: Device 769 (vbd) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not 
working.' appears:

[root@buran xen]# xm create -c myxen vmid=1
Using config file "myxen".
Error: Device 769 (vbd) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working.

'myxen' is the stock xmexample1 script - only thing changed is the name of the 
kernel image.  And since my disks are sda and sdb, the default disk drive 
didn't exist.

Suggest a 'specify an existing disk, dummy' error message.

On current RHEL-5, you get the following message if you try to start a guest
with a disk that doesn't exist:

[root@dhcp83-137 xen]# xm create rhel5test
Using config file "./rhel5test".
No handlers could be found for logger "xend"
Error: Disk isn't accessible
Usage: xm create <ConfigFile> [options] [vars]

Is that sufficient, or do you want more error logging?

Comment 4 Tim Boyer 2008-03-12 02:54:11 UTC
That's sufficient, I think...

Comment 5 Chris Lalancette 2008-03-12 12:11:17 UTC
OK, excellent.  I'm pretty sure this has been in there for quite a while at this
point, so I'm going to close it out as CURRENTRELEASE.  If you find differently,
or run into similar problems, feel free to reopen.
