Installed Alpine 2.6.3 sys to use it as a Xen host
Followed this wiki to install Xen Dom0 http://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Xen_Dom0
Everything works upto this part:
rc-update add xencommons
with error:
rc-update: service 'xencommons' does not exist
Searched around for xencommons - not sure exactly what this is. Tried:
apk add xencommon
ERROR: 1 unsatisfiable dependencies
world: xencommons
The boot loader already has en entry for Xen. After login it says:
OpenRC 0.11.8.73d56a6 is starting up Linux 3.10.5-1-grsec (x86_64) [XENU]
So I assume I am logged into a Xen kernel but can't load xl list
libxl: error: libxl.c:87:libxl_ctx_alloc: Is xenstore daemon running?
As a guees I tried xenstored
but that gives error
xc: error: Could not obtain a handle or priveledged command interface (2 = No such file or directory): Internal error
Any ideas to get xl list
and rc-update add xencommons
working?
Finally I tried apk cache sync
but that errors with ERROR: Package cache is not installed
Thankyou.
I think, xencommons is old and you don't need it anymore. Someone should check the wiki. Sorry for that.
OK no problem. Do you know what steps I'm missing to get
xl list
working? I followed the wiki article.#xl list
libxl: error: libxl.c:87:libxl_ctx_alloc: Is xenstore daemon running?
Thankyou.
Could you please try running "setup-xen-dom0"?
