xen install VMs

1. allocate disk space for the new windows

dd if=/dev/zero of=/export/data/xen/images/BizInt05.dev bs=1M count=40960

dd if /dev/null of /export/data/xen/images/BizInt05.dev bs=1M seek=40960 (dynamically allocated disk space )

2.edit virtual files for windows .

more /etc/xen/BizInt05.dev

3. create vm

xm create bizint05.dev

4. connect this windows via vncviewer,and start installation .

vncviewer port "5957

netstat -lpnt
