Hi All,
I'm new to Xen world and am in the process of collecting performance
information of various guests from dom0. Can somebody help me out
with these problems.
1. I downloaded libvirt-0.3.3 src and did a 'make' and I'm seeing
this problem.
xen_internal.c: In function 'xenHypervisorDomainGetOSType':
xen_internal.c:2711: error: 'DOMFLAGS_HVM' undeclared (first use in
this function)
xen_internal.c:2711: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported
only once
xen_internal.c:2711: error: for each function it appears in.)
xen_internal.c: In function 'xenHypervisorGetDomInfo':
xen_internal.c:2943: error: 'DOMFLAGS_HVM' undeclared (first use in
this function)
make[2]: *** [libvirt_la-xen_internal.lo] Error 1
Can you:
find /usr/include -name '*.h' | xargs grep DOMFLAGS_DYING
and also tell us what version of xen, xen-devel and kernel-xen you
have installed.
2. I want to know what are the rpm that the Xen server must have to
pull out the performance data of various guests.
You will require libvirt >= 0.3.3
3. My Xen server now has these rpms :
# rpm -qa |grep libvirt
libvirt-0.2.0-0.16
libvirt-python-0.2.0-0.16
Do I need any other rpms to compile my c programs ? Is there any
document which says how I can compile my c-program using libvirt ? I
tried running info1 example in debug mode and I get this error :
libvirt-devel contains the C development API, header files and library.

Apparently the xenstore daemon isn't running. This is a fairly
fundamental part of Xen. Again, need to know what version of Xen
you're running.
4. what is libvirt_proxy ? What is its use ?
I assume this is used to connect to hypervisor (am I right ?) When I
run this, it says "Failed to open Xen hypervisor"
No, libvirt_proxy is something you can ignore.
libvirt tries several methods to connect to Xen, including: direct
hypervisor calls and connecting to xend. It can also remotely access
a libvirtd daemon.
Rich.
