xen.independent_wallclock=1
Enter 1 to enable or 0 to disable the wallclock setting.
Although the current status of the independent wallclock changes immediately,
its clock time might not be immediately synchronized. The setting persists until
the virtual machine reboots. Then, it gets its initial clock time from the host and
uses the independent wallclock according to setting specified in the sysctl
.conf file.
7.4.4 Updating a Network Installation
Source
The installation of SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 is only supported from a network
installation source. To have the right device names supported in Xen, you must update
the kernel and initrd that are used to install the system. Furthermore, the updated
kernel must be available in the installation source. In the following example, the network
installation source is found at /srv/ftp. Create this directory manually, if it does
not exist already.
1 Get the latest kernel package for your system from the Novell Customer Center.
2 Create a directory for executables in your home directory: mkdir -p
$HOME/bin
3 Copy the script create_update_source.sh from http://www.suse
.de/~ug/tools/create_update_source.sh to the bin/ directory
and make it executable.
cd $HOME/bin
wget http://www.suse.de/~ug/tools/create_update_source.sh
chmod 755 create_update_source.sh
4 Install the package inst-source-utils. Then, change your working direc-
tory to your network installation source.
5 Run the command $HOME/bin/create_update_source.sh /srv/ftp.
