CentOS 6.5 Xen Stock Cannot Run Dom-u PCI: Fatal: – Ipmi_si

CentOS-Virt 14 Comments

I had a supermicro server SuperServer 1027R-WRF4+ and a old Dell PowerEdge 2950.

In both machines I setup CentOS 6.5, which is running
3.10.34-11.el6.CentOS.alt.x86_64.

I follow Xen4Cen wiki to setup Xen, I had other servers running CentOS
5.x without issues.

Now, once I build my vm’s dom-u CentOS 6.5/CentOS 5.9 both x64, I
receive different erros, let me show u the message I receive in my console for CentOS 6.5 dum-u.

xl console oerp-server PCI: Fatal: No config space access function found ipmi_si: Could not set up I/O space ipmi_si: Could not set up I/O space ipmi_si: Could not set up I/O space

Something related to ipmi in my server which is enable by default? can be, now what happen is I try to boot xentos 5.9 x64 dom-u:

Looks is not finding the dom-u disk.

In both cases I’m using almost the same settings:

name = “CentOS5”
uuid = “5020979f-8dae-105d-df56-9fb28d377aa2”
bootloader = “/usr/bin/pygrub”
memory = 2048
on_poweroff = “destroy”
on_reboot = “restart”
on_crash = “restart”
disk = [ “tap:aio:/ext4/CentOS5/disk.img,xvda,w” ]
vif = [ “mac=X:X:X:X:X:X,bridge=xenbr0,script=vif-bridge” ]

The main line of CentOS stock without Xen continue using kernel 2.6.x, but Xen is using the new line 3.x.

Anyone else with this issue?

Thanks for your time.

  • So if I understand you correct – in 5.9 you did not see this, but in 6.5 you do?

    And the error is that some driver that looks to be built in is telling you that it can’t set up I/O space? Well, that is OK – if it can’t it cannot.

  • Please do not top post.
    .. snip..
    .. snip..

    Ah, that is because you do not have xen-blkfront loaded in your initrd. Somehow it thinks it is called ‘xenblk’. If you recreate your initrd
    (either dracut or mkinitrd) make sure you specify that you want to have the ‘xen-blkfront’ driver as part of it. The usual parameter is ‘–add’ or such.

    How did you generate your initrd?

  • Probably auto generated as part of the kernel install process … The Xen4CentOS project uses blkap2.5 that is rolled into our kernel.

    All the modules SHOULD load initially and it should work, although, I
    have not tested it at all on ipmi … so if we need to do anything special then lets figure out what that is and get it into Xen4CentOS stack.

    Thanks, Johnny Hughes

  • No, I’m using the instructions from xen4CentOS project. Nothing manually.

    U mention 2 things:

    For CentOS6 is normal the error, I have to connect to my console using other methods and see if CentOS6 dom-u is running, I will let u know.
    2nd u mention that we need a module xen-blkfront for CentOS5 dom-u, hope the developers read this and fix this asap.

    Thanks.

  • If u need info from me, let me know, because this happen in both servers with different year of manufacturing. and different CentOS version 5.9/6.0.

    Thanks for your time!!!

  • Huh?

    You do not need any developers. You just need to regenerate your initrd to have extra drivers. That is it.

  • Understand that, but if exist something to be done to have the fix for the whole community will be better, don’t u think?

  • Latest news, I connect to dom-u CentOS 6.5 x64 over VNC and is booting and got this after waiting:

    xl console oerp-server PCI: Fatal: No config space access function found ipmi_si: Could not set up I/O space ipmi_si: Could not set up I/O space ipmi_si: Could not set up I/O space Kernel panic – not syncing: Attempted to kill init!

    Thanks.

  • Can you post the full dmesg output please? Do you see ‘xen-blkfront’
    being loaded on it?

  • The issue is that I cannot connect to the dom-u to get the output, exist a way for this?

  • The output u see was from dom-u CentOS5, that one show us a different message:
