  1. Bumping this old thread, as I am still experiencing this issue for every reboot.  I haven't had time to work on it in a while, but was wondering whether or not it has been fixed in later betas or RC1/RC2???  I have searched around, but cannot find a fix.  Surely I can't be the only one that runs XEN with unRAID and has this issue??

  2. Thanks everyone. What you've said makes a lot of sense. Luckily I am not copying from disk to user share with the same path, as garycase mentions; as I've already copied quite a bit. I have been copying from /mnt/disk1/backup to /mnt/usr/movies. One question... if I did experience those issues during the move, would the copy error out, or would the files copy successfully, but become corrupt on the destination user share? I've copied a lot of movies in-between those two folders by mounting them via SMB on a windows box. I didn't receive errors, but i don't want to have to check every movie for corruption. Thanks!

  3. I am running unRAID Server 6.0-beta14b.  I have XEN setup with a Windows 7 VM and a Debian VM.  Both VM's work perfectly.  I installed unMenu, along with the Power down script so that i can reboot the server in the event that the unRAID WebUI crashes.  Even though I shutdown both of my VM's, stop the array, and select Reboot within the unRAID WebUI, the reboot process hangs with an error that says "WARNING: Not stopping xenstored, as it cannot be restarted."  I have attached a pic of my monitor, which shows the error.  The reboot hangs with that error no matter how I attempt to shutdown or reboot the server (WebUI, or Power down script).  I am then forced to hold the power button down and force the server to reboot, which results in a parity check for every reboot!  Does anyone know how to fix this error? Thanks.

  4. Using unRAID 6.0-beta14b, I copied all of my data (~1.4TB) from my existing NAS onto drive 1 of my unRAID server using rsync.  Now i would like to copy those files to the appropriate user shares; following the individual share settings of directory splitting, high-water, included and excluded disks, etc... is there a way to do this using the CLI (Midnight Commander), a script, or a plugin?  If possible, I would rather not mount the shares on an external workstation and copy all of the data across the network in order to properly fill the drives.  Thanks!

  5. Hi everyone.  I have been doing a lot of reading and have successfully migrated 3 existing Virtual Machines (1 Windows 7 and 2 Debian) from VMware ESXi 5.5 over to Xen (Unraid 6.0-beta14b).  They are running in HVM without issue.  The one problem that I am having is that I can not get the DomU's to show up in the unRAID WebUI under the Xen Domains tab.  I followed the instructions that are presented when running the xenman command via CLI, which tells you to ensure that you provide the absolute path to the Xen DomU config file and ensure that there is a name value within the config file for the DomU.  I also have a .png file for the icon in the same folder, along with the disk image.  I do not have the optional readme.md or the <configfile>- present within the folder, so that may be the issue.  The one part that i do not understand is how to create the <configfile>- that is referenced in the following paragraph:

     

    <configfile>- (that is, same name as the xen configuration file but with a dash at the end) - this is considered

      the "factory default" xen configuration settings.  If this file does not exist then the first time a user opens

      the domain settings page it will be created by copying the xen configuration file.  The purpose of this file

      is to provide an easy way for the user to "start over" when experimenting with xen configuration settings.

     

    When i run xenman register '/mnt/cache/VM/Win7 VM/win7.cfg', the command does not provide any feedback as to whether or not it completed successfully.  I checked the /boot/config/domains folder after running the command and it is empty.  Could someone please help me troubleshoot this issue?  I would like to be able to modify/auto start the DomU from within the unRAID WebUI.  I really wish that a Xen Web Manager like Xen Orchestra was compatible with unRAID Xen so that we could have an actual management console.  Is there any update on when that will happen?  Thanks a lot for all of your help!  Here is my config:

     

    name = "Windows7"

    builder = "hvm"

    # kernel = 'hvmloader' not needed.

    # device_model_version = "qemu-xen-traditional" deprecated.

     

    # You can adjust the vcpu and memory lines if you wish.

    vcpus = 2

    memory = 4096

     

    # Win7x64.iso is the name of my ISO, change it to whatever yours is named.

    # When your Windows 7 installation is complete, you can delete the reference to your ISO image below, which is this part:

    #  , 'file:/mnt/cache/VMs/Windows7/Win7x64.iso,hdc:cdrom,r'

    disk = ['file:/mnt/cache/VM/Win7 VM/Win7.img,hda,w']

     

    # Note: Your bridge name (br0) needs to match the bridge name in the unRAID network settings.

    vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3e:01:01:01,bridge=br0' ] #The first 3 octets have to be 00:16:3e The last 3 octets can be anything

     

    # When your Windows 7 installation is complete, change this to "c" (instead of "dc") so you don't boot with the DVD.

    boot = "c"

    apic = '1'
