= Nova flags for [[XenServer]] =
 
  
When configuring Nova and [[XenServer]], please take care with the following settings in nova.conf
 
 
== Networking ==
 
 
For more information on networking, see:
 
* [[XenServer/NetworkFlags]]
 
 
== Flat Injection ==
 
 
Unless you know what guests you are having and test this works, it is best to use FlatDHCP, and so turn off the network injection (uses DHCP instead)
 
 
 
<pre><nowiki>
 
flat_injected=False
 
</nowiki></pre>
 
 
 
== Connection ==
 
 
It is common to use the "Host Internal Management Network" to contact XenAPI. This means every node can use the same IP address to contact [[XenServer]]: 169.254.0.1
 
 
You will need to set these flags to talk to [[XenServer]]:
 
 
 
<pre><nowiki>
 
xenapi_connection_url=http://169.254.0.1
 
xenapi_connection_username=root
 
xenapi_connection_password=your_password_goes_here
 
</nowiki></pre>
 
 
 
Note: When using host aggregates you may need to use the IP address of the [[XenServer]] on the management network, so the pool can be correctly configured to talk to the other [[XenServer]] hosts.
 
 
== VNC Proxy Address ==
 
 
Assuming you are talking to XenAPI through the host local managmenet network, and [[XenServer]] is on the address: 169.254.0.1, you can use the following:
 
 
 
<pre><nowiki>
 
vncserver_proxyclient_address=169.254.0.1
 
</nowiki></pre>
 
 
 
== Firewall ==
 
 
The default firewall may be specific to libvirt. There are two options.
 
 
* Using IP Tables in mova network:
 
 
<pre><nowiki>
 
firewall_driver=nova.virt.firewall.IptablesFirewallDriver
 
</nowiki></pre>
 
 
* Doing the isolation in Dom0:
 
 
<pre><nowiki>
 
firewall_driver=nova.virt.xenapi.firewall.Dom0IptablesFirewallDriver
 
</nowiki></pre>
