Tyler,

From your limited description, it is hard to say for sure what problems you are encountering. A lot of solutions depend on whether you are running paravirtualized or fully virtualized guests.

However, if you are trying to start your guests from "Virtual Machine Manager" (a.k.a. virt-manager) and you can't see them there, then you may simply need to make your VMs "managed". To do this, you run "xm new vm_config_file" for each VM. This will import the VM into xenstore so that they will show up in `xm list` and virt-manager even when they are not running. If this is not the case and even `xm create` is failing, then please let us know what error messages you are seeing when you run `xm create`. There is also a great deal of documentation regarding SLES 10 SP1 that can be found here: http://www.novell.com/documentation/vmserver I believe the "Guest Operating Systems" book in the section for SUSE Linux Virtual Machines gives some information about upgrading from SLES 10 GA to SP1, but I seem to remember seeing other documentation on the upgrade scenario as well. Good luck! Jason

We still have the VM configuration files in /etc/xen/vm, and the .hda image files, but we are unable to boot the VMs (they do not appear in "xm list"). Is there a way to manually add the VMs?

Thank you, -Tyler D.
