How to install & configure Xen Virtualization in openSUSE 11.0
Posted by admin on July 30th, 2008
Virtualization cannot be that simpler than in openSUSE 11.0. In openSUSE
11.0, Xen Virtualization ins pre-built and all it takes is a few clicks away from up
and running with Virtualization in no time. Xen is a virtual machine monitor for
x86 that supports execution of multiple guest operating systems with
unprecedented levels of performance and resource isolation. This package
contains the Xen Hypervisor.
To install Xen Virtualization in openSUSE 11.0,
From the KMenu, click Applications – System – Virtualization – Install
Hypervisor Tools
This will start the installation and will show a list of packages to be installed. Click Install

4/19www.susegeek.com/general/how-to-install-configure-xen-virtualization-in-opensuse-110/
This will start downloading the Xen Virtualization packages and the modified kernel for Xen virtualization.
Once the installation is completed, it will prompt you to reboot and start the system by selecting the openSUSE option with Xen kernelfrom the list. To confirm the boot loader entry in GRUB, click KMenu – Computer – YaST – System – Boot Loader and you should
see the “Xen — openSUSE 11.0 – 2.6.25.11-0.1″ in the list.
Reboot your PC and select “Xen — openSUSE 11.0 – 2.6.25.11-0.1″. This will boot openSUSE with the modified kernel which
supports Xen virtualization and everything else loads normally. Now, from the KMenu – Applications – System – Virtualization –
5/19www.susegeek.com/general/how-to-install-configure-xen-virtualization-in-opensuse-110/
“Create Virtual Machines” to start creating virtual machines.
From the wizard, click Forward from the welcome screen and select “I need to install an operating system” or if you already had a Diskimage select the option to select a disk or disk image and click Forward.
6/19www.susegeek.com/general/how-to-install-configure-xen-virtualization-in-opensuse-110/
Select the type of operating system and click Forward.
Select the Virtualization type and click Forward. The default is “Paravirtualisation”
7/19www.susegeek.com/general/how-to-install-configure-xen-virtualization-in-opensuse-110/
This brings up the final summary. Any change to any settings can be changed from here. For instance to add a CDROM or a ISO
images, click Disk and then click CDROM and add the CDROM drive or the ISO image.
8/19www.susegeek.com/general/how-to-install-configure-xen-virtualization-in-opensuse-110/
When all the changes are complete. Xen launches the Xen image under a TightVNC session. Now, you are up and running with Xen
Virtualization in openSUSE 11.0

Hmm, it’s not so easy if the hardware is not fully supported by Xen. I have ACER AMD64 dual core and yet I wasn’t able tosuccessfully build a single virtual system on it using Xen (no problems with VMware or Virtual Box).
I had numerous issues booting to Xen kernel (for example with USB storage) and once booted, the only option available wasparavirtualization and full virtualization wasn’t an option.
All and all, I would venture out and say that Xen is not fully mature yet for the big time, even though, some try to push and makeyou want to believe it is so.
2. Stephen Shaw Says: August 2nd, 2008 at 5:02 pm
@Bolek: its even easier than this if you install it from the beginning I have several xen guests all paravirtualized that didn’t take
that much effort to get up and running. XEN has worked great for me on my servers. Almost 100% uptime since I installed them.
6:20pm up 246 days 18:11, 1 user, load average: 0.13, 0.05, 0.01
I think its ready, at least for my purposes. I’m not saying that your average joe can do it with just click buttons and checkingcheckboxes. At the same time, I don’t believe that it necessarily should be that way. Would you hire an average joe to setup and
10/19www.susegeek.com/general/how-to-install-configure-xen-virtualization-in-opensuse-110/
maintain an enterprise data center? I should clarify that i don’t really view xen as a desktop solution.
3. Bolek Says: August 2nd, 2008 at 7:48 pm
I have heard the “average Joe” argument many times. However, knowing current trend in IT industry it no longer holds water.
Unless you have tools to easily configure guests, reconfigure them, migrate and so on, it will be always on the fringes of enterprise
deployment. It goes nowhere near the ease of use when you compare it to VMware. And I am not advocating for one or theother. I merely point out the obvious. Part of growing is the recognition of strengths and weaknesses. Management of Xen is still
its Achilles heel (providing you are lucky enough to make it work).
What might work for you, might not work in the enterprise. Again, I hope you read my comment about Xen kernel having
problems with off the shelve hardware. It’s not an ‘average’ Joe issue. That was my point.
I am glad that it is working for you, but this is not the argument nor the criteria that makes it ready for everyone else.

7. Destroyed windows partition Says: August 6th, 2008 at 3:05 pm
I used the same process described above and tried to configure a winxp guest OS with the option “I have a disk or disk image
with an installed OS”. Basically my pc is a dual-boot system with opensuse installed on one drive (/dev/sdb) and winxp installedon another drive (/dev/sda). On opensuse the winxp partition (NTFS) is mounted on /mnt/windows. So, in the virtualization
“Disks” option, I specified “file:/mnt/windows” and clicked ok. This totally destroyed the winxp partition. Now my pc just does
not boot from winxp. On top of that the winxp drive can’t even be mounted as a data drive become the filesystem itself isdamaged. Why has opensuse released such a buggy tool that can end up destroying the user’s windows OS?

Is opensuse 11 support paravirtualisation?
also, I try to run Opensuse 11 on SLES 10sp1 but I don’t have the right os type choice…

21. Ravii Says: August 30th, 2008 at 5:06 am
@HS you probobly have nVidia drivers installed on your machine… Try to change name NVidia to nv in xorg.conf file. it might
help, but you will lose 3d acceleration.
22. DC-K Says: August 30th, 2008 at 10:46 am
Thanks Ravi, Xen now boots into KDE

Thanks Ravii. But in which folder can I find xorg.conf?
24. Ravii Says: August 30th, 2008 at 11:57 am
I’m glad that it helps. Could you tell me please, do you have acceleration now(I’ve tried to change nVidia to nv some time ago)?
Btw. I’m running now on virtualBOX it’s stable like Xen.

29. Miked Says: September 7th, 2008 at 6:34 pm
I just installed OpenSuse 11 on my pc.
It installs just fine. I have a Foxconn 780G mobo, AMD X25000+ with 4G ram. The OS is installed over 2 250G SATA drives
in raid 1 (boot, root and swap have their own raid 1 devices). I had just a plain VESA 1024×768 at 16bit color. No AMD
Catalyst Drivers installed. Booted up perfectly and I had installed the virtialization with the OS.
Upon installing the hypervisor and rebooting into the Xen Kernel I too am dropping into the CLI after the X server fails to start. I
am not using any aftermarket X drivers for display its set for VESA at 1024×768. I will install it on my HP Proliant server at work
with an intel chipset this week to see if that works.
This really sucks because I can get Xen 3.2 working fine in Ubuntu 8.04 Server but VNC doesn’t work well at all to install
windows 2k3 and the X windows needs a generic, non server/xen, kernel. OpenSuse 11 works wonders for GUI but I can’t get
Xen to work.
Bah I say.
30. Ravii Says: September 7th, 2008 at 10:31 pm
@DC-K, I have also that error, but you must do(as a root):
1) go to: /etc/init.d/ and run: vboxdrv setup
2) modprobe vboxdrv(after every reboot;( )3) add users to vbox users group
4) run virtualBox.
Now it will work fine(but I don’t know how to run it whitout doing modprobe vboxdrv). Now on my laptop(c2d 2GHz, 2GB
RAM, GF8600) I have running on OpenSUSE 11(as a host), Windows Xp, Windows Server 2008 as a guest systems, it’s
works great and You don’t loose 3d acceleration on openSUSE.

thanks again Ravii, I’ll give it a go

2) modprobe vboxdrv(after every reboot;( )
-yast > system > system services(runlevel)-tick “expert mode”
-wait a while so the services status can get refreshed, scroll down and click on “vboxdrv”
-at the bottom, tick “2″, “3″ and “5″ (starts vboxdrv in runlevels 2 / 3 / 5)

Getting Opensuse 11 up and running was no problem. But, when I install Xen and boot with the xen kernel (2.6.25.16-0.1-xen)
the network connection is lost. Booting with the normal kernel everything works fine. People are having similar network problems
with the Xen kernel in Ubuntu 8.04 .
14/19www.susegeek.com/general/how-to-install-configure-xen-virtualization-in-opensuse-110/
Any ideas? Is there a problem in this specific version of the kernel? How can I try out different xen kernel versions?
35. Peter Says: September 26th, 2008 at 7:02 am
Found asolution to my own problem. the OS was resetting my DNS addresses in /etc/resolv.conf. Added the immutable attributeto this file to prevent it from being overwritten.
36. HS Says: September 27th, 2008 at 12:39 pm
I have the same problem like Peter. which attribute can make DNS addresses immutable?
In /etc/resolv.conf I have correct DNS addresses!
37. Peter Says: September 27th, 2008 at 12:49 pm
@HS: sudo chattr +i /etc/resolv.conf
After I did this, the DNS settings were intact even after reboot.
38. HS Says: September 27th, 2008 at 1:28 pm
you mean after DNS addresses I have to write +i ?
39. Peter Says: September 27th, 2008 at 1:35 pm
@HS: No, you make the whole resolv.conf file immutable. Type it on the command line. Please note that this means that you have
to set correct DNS IP-addresses in resolv.conf first. And, if you want to change DNS servers you have to edit this file manually
from now on.
40. HS Says: September 27th, 2008 at 1:52 pm
thank you Peter. I will try it.
41. HS Says: September 29th, 2008 at 3:54 am
I tried, but I have no connection to internet. Server is directly connected to the router (DSL).
42. Peter Says: September 29th, 2008 at 11:59 pm
Ok, I got Xen up and running as well and created three VM:s (all Opensuse 11). However, the server becomes very unstable
after a while and will lock up completely after an hour or so although there is no activity on the VM:s. I decided to try the freeVMWare server and was up and running in under an hour. It has been stable for 24 hours now.
43. Alex Trinkl Says: October 6th, 2008 at 6:51 am
I tried a new setup, openSuse 11.0, Linux 2.6.25.5-1.1-xen i686, kde 4.0.4 on a Pentium4, 2.8GHz,
I installed the Hypervisor and Tools from YaST and tried to setup a new virtual machine with:
Type: other
Initial Mem: 256
Max Mem: 16384
Virt Proz: 1
Graphics: Papavirtualized Graphics Adapter
Disks:

2: 4.0 GB Hard Disk (file:/var/lib/xen/images/Ubuntu/disk0
15/19www.susegeek.com/general/how-to-install-configure-xen-virtualization-in-opensuse-110/
Network Adapters:
1: Paravirt. : Random MAC
So, all very much default and according to the above HowTo….
Click OK: Error: The installationsource is unusable, Details: 0.7 GB CD-ROM (file:/home/alex/ubuntu 8.10 i386.iso)
If I insert this burned on CD at least it comes to the boot-screen, so what I am doing wrong???? Is this setup out of the box not
working with other linux-images?
Has anyone an idea, what stupid mistake I did or what I have to do to get that running. It’s already frustrating to see on various
HowTo’s how easy it is to get VM’s running and I am always unlucky getting non-commented error-messages in the very
beginning….
Thank’s for any hint,
Alex

Hey I have the Rob bug,
I did everything written above but when; Quote [ Reboot your PC and select “Xen — openSUSE 11.0 - 2.6.25.11-0.1″. Thiswill boot openSUSE with the modified kernel which supports Xen virtualization and everything else loads normally.] End quote
I didn’t load normally but hangs in the nongraphical mode (textmode) in runlevel 5.
I like opensuse 11.0. After reading the above feedback and all the problems you techs and admins have I think me “a regular joe”
is going to stay with the seperate hdd booting of my favorite Windows and OpenSuse 11.0 is the way to go, the effortless pushing
of the f-8 key is not as bad as driving my fist through the monitor. I would like to add that OpenSuse is probably the best userfriendly linux gui OS out there. V is for Vmware tbh

47. Mike Says: December 9th, 2008 at 7:22 pm
Well I managed to get it all working (thanks for the tip about Nvidia!) only to find out that my Athlon 1700 won’t support the
virtualization mode for Windows. Sigh.
I am looking for a way to support those nasyt Windows apps that won’t work under Wine or Mono. There are not many of them
but the few I have are essential, e.g. Quickbooks.
So far the free VMware tools look like the way to go, they do run on ALL of my machines!

i finally got the Zen virtual machine to work on my system now that i upgraded to 11.1. i think whatever problems 11.0 was giving
i guess they must have fixed them cause i now have no problems with running openSUSE 11.1 64-bit. it runs much more stable
and compiz as well as zen gives no trouble now and performance is just as great. you all should give 11.1 a try. it works much
better.

58. Roger Says: May 2nd, 2009 at 8:22 pm
I have come to realize that Xen still has some issues to be sorted out. I can’t create any Windows OS on my machine but I canrun VMware or Virtualbox using any guest OS with no problems. It may be a good or better idea to use another virtual machine
software if the one use are trying doesn’t work well for you.

You need to be root to run the XEN manager and start, stop, and make machines. Use the XEN manager under YAST and youwill be able to, if you know the root password when YAST asks.

What about in command line mode ? How ?
I install on yast in command line mode, but I have installed about only Xen Virtualization: Hypervisor (aka VMM aka
Microkernel). Could I install other library about Xen?
sorry about my English. It’s really bad.

Hi,
Thanks a lot for the tutorial, I get all up and running in few minutes.
By the way, I get the same problem of Alex Trinkl when trying to install a Ubuntu Karmic VM.
I get “The Installation source is unusable”, although I have used it to install non virtual machines. Can some one give me some
explanations?
Than you very much,
Massimiliano

Massimiliano, for those who follow with the same error. If you choose Full VT rather than Paravirtualized, this should resolve this
issue.

The ‘average joe’ is now working for corporate entities, and servers don’t have pretty GUIs. We have SSH into the servers only.Thus a CLI version of this would help. Otherwise, very pretty, and useful for others but useless for me.
