    Hi Everybody,

    I have installed xen3.3 compiled ubuntu8.10(2.6.27-11-server) kernel on my server by following the Xen installation Guide from "http://howtoforge.org/installing-xen-3.3-with-kernel-2.6.27-on-ubuntu-8.10-x86_64" forum

    I am able to install it successfully and able to create guest domU Linux clients on the Xen server. After this I got the following dobts and questions.
    Can someone please provide some solution to these requests below.


    1) Can we create Windows domU on Xen-ubuntu server ? How do we create it? If not is there any work around for this?

    2) How do we duplicate or clone and existing VM( domU ) with and without it running?



    It would be really great if you could answer this question or if you can direct to any place Where I can find information on this.

    Take a look here: http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-ru...uests-hvm-with-xen-3.2-on-debian-lenny-x86_64

    You can do this with dd. Create a copy of the disk images (or LVM volumes) and then create a new configuration file for the new guest in /etc/xen.

    This link should give you the idea: http://blog-grid.blogspot.com/2007/07/how-to-clone-xen-vm.html
