Description

I finally got foreman talking to Xen via libvirt. Figured out the storage pool definitions and can now create a host. However, it fails to properly instantiate the guest due to the following error:

"Failed to create a compute test (Libvirt) instance test2.xxxx.com: Call to virNetworkCreateXML failed: XML description for unknown volume format type raw is not well formed or invalid "

I've tried both raw and qcow2 (my only two options). I'm trying this as xen not KVM. My ultimate goal is Citrix, but i'm still working on getting libxenserver/libvirt compiled and cooperating. Until then I"m trying to get a "supported" config working.

Any thoughts would be appreciated. Does anyone have a transcript or howto they used to get provisioning to Xen working (preferable not KVM)

Hello,

Currently Xen is not supported on Foreman even thought Foreman use libvirt. A PR is being working on to add this functionality.
