Hi Eric, I'm trying to install the drivers on XenServer 6.0.2 and on Centos 5.2/6.4. I downloaded libvirt 1.1.3. So, if I try to configure w/ xen and libxl, the configure script errors out saying - configure: error: You must install the libxl Library from Xen >= 4.2 to compile libxenlight driver with -lxl btw, I am trying to compile this on XenServer6.0.2 itself, and plan to use virsh on the Centos 5.2/6.4 running on it. Any guidance you could provide, on how to go about this? Regards, Shiva On Tue, Oct 29, 2013 at 1:09 PM, Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com> wrote:

and the associated drivers from .rpms?
You didn't tell us what distro you are using. There's plenty of rpms, but without that detail, we can't tell you which ones to use.
If there were a yum repository where I could download the daemon and the drives, that'd be great? Any advice would be appreciated.
In the Fedora distro, the daemon is already part of the main Fedora repository. You can also use the fedora-virt-preview repo to use the latest virt stack while still sticking to a stable release (ie. right now, that provides rawhide's libvirt 1.1.3 on top of Fedora 19, instead of being stuck at 1.0.5).

If you are using something like RHEL, then contact your vendor. If you are using something like CentOS, then you get to enjoy the consequences of a distro with no formal support.
