C.4.2. Create a XenServer guest instance and hardserver configuration
The XenServer is a bare metal Hypervisor that provides the PCI
passthrough capability. As part of this process, you must create two
Dom U
guests that communicate through the Vswitch. One guest acts
as the primary guest and is configured as described below utilizing the
PCI card connected via passthrough. The second guest can be
composed of the identical configuration with the exception of the PCI
passthrough connection.
To create the first DomU guest VM:
1. Select the server from the
Resources
pane, right click and select
New VM
from the
dropdown menu.
2. Select
Template

3. Select
an operating system
for the first DomU guest VM.
4. Select

5. Select
Name

6. Enter a name and select
Next
.
The DomU guest VM name will also be displayed in the XenCenter’s
Resources pane. You can change the name at any time.
