      Is the netdata plugin open source? I couldn't find it at github.

    • RE: [XCP-ng 8] max_grant_frames reached

      @olivierlambert: The problem is that there are not enough grants for creating queues for 9 vif on a system running 4 vcpu. Trying to create the 4th queue for vif-7 raises a max_grant_frames reached error. The netfront driver could create only 3 of 4 queues for vif-7 and 0 queues for vif-8, which is configured in Xen but therefore not present in the guest.

      That is not a problem of the "Other media install" template, all created VMs (different templates, different OSs) have the same issue, max_nr_frames=32, which seems a default value for XCP-ng. Since Xen version 4.10 max_grant_frames isn't a global config parameter issued to the hypervisor at boot time anymore. Since version 4.10 it is a parameter per domU.

      The question is, since XCP-ng has no config files per domU, how can I set domU parameter?

      @olivierlambert: I've read since 4.10 it is a domU configuration via max_grant_frames parameter. Since XCP-ng has no config files per domU, how can I set domU parameter?

      I've tried it via

      xe vm-param-set platform:max_grant_frames=64 uuid=b61297e6-a413-135a-fa1e-647b547247ef
      

      but no success.

      @olivierlambert: Are you asking for issues with the VM? Yes, the issue is that I get round about 7.5 of 9 vif if I have 4 vcpu due to the lack of grants.

      I've freshly installed and updated OL7 and Debian9 using the provided templates.

      Grants for domU are always 32. What is causing the grants limit?

      @olivierlambert: I can't find a restriction of this kind in the template.

    • [XCP-ng 8] max_grant_frames reached

      Hello,

      got the following while started a VyOS router:

      [    2.072983] xen:grant_table: xen/grant-table: max_grant_frames reached cur=32 extra=1 limit=32 gnttab_free_count=191 req_entries=65
      [    2.072985] xen_netfront: can't alloc rx grant refs
      [    2.092487] vif vif-7: only created 3 queues
      

      Do you know who is limiting domU to 32 pages while dom0 has 64 per default?

      11:14 xs1 ~]# xen-diag gnttab_query_size 0
      domid=0: nr_frames=1, max_nr_frames=64
      [11:14 xs1 ~]# xen-diag gnttab_query_size 1
      domid=1: nr_frames=32, max_nr_frames=32
      

      Thanks
      Christian
