In a XenServer environment to get some point to the ugly bug that you can install any Linux distros directly from the Web. This äusert as follows:
Error: The bootloader for this VM returned an error – did the VM installation succeed? Error from bootloader: Return code:1 ; Log = INVALID_SOURCE. Unable to access a required file in the specified repository: http://….
This occurs when the XenServer is behind a proxy. Now you think one can at the console with a proxy:
Recently I have on the Export the virtual machine written to the XEN console. Now there is a little guide as I exported this machine at the console again import.
First, we will contact you via SSH with root at the right XenServer. Since our *. XVa is on a Windows File Share this first we connect with the command:
[root@XENS001 /]# mount -t cifs “//fileservername/XenServer” -o username=domain/admin,password=123456 /backup
To test the connection, we can list the content in this directory:
[root@XENS001 /]# ls –an /backup
Now we start the actual import of the machine:
[root@XENS001 /]# xe vm-import filename = / backup / DebianEtch.xva preserve = true
After the successful import is displayed on the console, the generated uuid and the machine is shown in the XenServer Console. Now, all settings such as eg. Network, CPU, Pool Server examined and possibly. be corrected.
First, we need a network share where we can store our backups. For many this is a shared folder on a Windows host, the simplest solution be, but it is also with NFS shares.
If we have created a share on a Windows Server (Rights note), we have yet to map this share with the XenServer Console. To this end, we are connecting with SSH to our XenServer (xsconsole or with the) and we create a new directory, the release of the Windows to represent the XenServer.
[root@xenserver /]# mkdir /backup
Then we mount our Windows release with the following command:
In the current version XenServer 5.5 SP2 comes before it is unfortunately still not deleting snapshots created the required disk space is freed.
This point does the point of hurt, of course,, as for a virtual machine with a hard disk of eg. 50 GB in a Snapshot (the just consumed only a few MB) additional 50GB of storage to be reserved. Deleting this will not receive. That would still not the problem if we would see this in the Overview of Storage. This is not the case.
Now Citrix has already SP1 XenServer 5.5 a small program built from exactly these hard drives from deleted snapshots. This is the Console application:

The following steps are necessary:
PLEASE NOTE: The affected machine is required for the process be able to perform the operations.
Since I have searched repeatedly for instructions Windows 7 To install on a current XenServer - and found none - I want to present a small illustrated HowTo, now at Windows 7 to install a XenServer.
as reported in relevant Citrix Forums, it is a patch in November 1 for XenServer give a statutory Windows 7 supported. But if it is not yet.
Advance: We tested them with a final 32-bit version of Windows 7 Professional.
Let's start:
1. Create a new VM - Select the template Windows Server 2008 (32bit)
