Beta Release 2
- Everything installed correctly and started up, but I don't know how to create a Virtual Machine
- We currently support two methods of deploying virtual machines: Creating new ones from scratch, or downloading pre-packaged machines from a VMCast source. To get a listing of machines from a VMCast, click on Repository then Manage Repository. From there click the yellow refresh icon beside the "Enomalism VMCasting Released Appliances Feed". This will refresh the VMCast feed and allow you to download a machine from the Remote Repository tab. If you want to install a machine from scratch use the VM Creator feature.
- Can I use Enomalism to connect or import a currently running VM?
- No this is not possible at this time, but it is a planned feature for a future release.
- I'm able to download and provision a Xen VM, but I can't seem to start it.
- Xen, by default in most Linux distros, is not configured to work properly with Enomalism. Please see our troubleshooting section to properly configure Xen.
- What's going on with OpenVZ?
- It is possible to use openVZ currently we have a test machine currently running, but the libvirt openVZ support is fairly lacking, so for the time being unless your're extremely technical i would hold off. We plan to support it more fully in about a month. Anyone interested in helping out,please let me know. If you're feeling adventurous., your best bet is to check out the libvirt site for help with any questions or problems.
- I'm running Ubuntu 7.10/8.04 and I've compiled a snapshot version of Libvirt according to the documentation, but the networking seems non-functional
- Do a "make uninstall" on the snapshot version of libvirt and roll back to the Ubuntu packages by running
apt-get uninstall libvirt0 libvirt-bin python-libvirt; apt-get install libvirt0 libvirt-bin pytho-libvirt
- Do a "make uninstall" on the snapshot version of libvirt and roll back to the Ubuntu packages by running
- When I create a new machine using Provisioning and Management, it keeps booting the ISO image I uploaded
- Edit the XML machine definition under the new VM (while it's turned off) and remove the <boot> line and the reference to the CD-ROM device.
- I have enomalism working but no machines show up under Remote Repository for me to download.
- Click on Manage Repository and click the yellow update arrows on each of the default repos. This will populate your remote repository with the newest modules and virtual machines.
