How can I run osv in Xen?

[yxliang01]

In the official website of osv, I can see that xen is officially supported, but I can't find the image for xen...

If I'm not mistaken, the standard qcow2 images should work

I have converted the qcow2 to img which can be used for xen, however, there shows "can't load image"...

The following works for me:

qemu-img convert -f qcow2 -O raw
Create a text file with:

builder='hvm'xen_platform_pci=1acpi=1apic=1boot='c'vncdisplay=1memory=2048vcpus=2maxcpus=2name='osv-5006'disk=[',raw,hda,rw']serial='pty'paused=0on_crash='preserve'vif=['bridge=virbr0']
Run with:

xl create -c

@yxliang01 Doesn't

make img_format=raw

produce images that boot properly? Ping @asias.

Our scripts/run.py supports run OSv on local xen. Just remember to produce the image with raw format.

$ make img_format=raw
$ sudo scripts/run.py -nv -b bridge0

@yxliang01 It looks like this issue can be closed as you reported (almost 4 years ago) that you were able to run OSv on XEN.

Can this issue be closed?

[yxliang01]

Right! Sorry that I forgot to close this. Thanks @wkozaczuk for reminding.
