Hello,
 What kind of scp are you using? I have done countless transfers
of >2GB files and several >60GB files on x86_64 Dom-0 (whole guest
images). What is your hardware configuration? I have always been using
scp and ssh from RHEL mostly, but several times I had to tunnel through
a ssh on Solaris. All seems to be OK though.
 I have even restored a >600 GB database via the network in a
Dom-U and it was OK. However, I have not tried such things in a fully
virtualised guest.


Regards,
 Daniel

Subject: [rhelv5-list] Kernel-xen bug in rhel5.1 (md5sums are wrong)

Hi all,

I have an interesting problem derivated from my other threads:

https://www.redhat.com/archives/rhelv5-list/2008-April/msg00111.html
https://www.redhat.com/archives/rhelv5-list/2008-April/msg00116.html

I have installed a new server with rhel5.1 x86_64 and xen. Afterwards,
I have installed another rhel5.1 x86_64 as a domU (paravirtualized).

When I try to copy a 465MB's or 650MB's file to domU, md5sum is ok.
But when I try to copy a 1GB file or more, md5sums are wrong. Same
result if I try to copy from domU. for example:

Original file md5sum is 89fbc4c7baafc0b0c05f0fa32c192a17 and it is
ok.

- Launching scp command from my laptop to domU and destination is a
folder on domU:

2767e3c839a7a1688323f85826e3b442 win2k8stdeval.iso (it is wrong)

- launching scp command from domU to my laptop and destination is a
folder on
domU:

b125e99f5c0c46bee71b1ef5cc1c039d win2k8stdeval.iso (it is wrong)


tx flag on domU is off.

Ok, If i try to copy the same iso file to dom0 or form dom0 like I
explain for domU, results are the same: md5sums are wrong. But If I
start this server using normal kernel (not xen enabled) all md5sums are
ok (from host and to host).

Please, somebody from redhat can confirms me that this is a bug?? is
it or would be resolved on rhel5.2?? IMHO until this issue is not
resolved, it isn't safe to use rhel5-xen on production environments ....

Many thanks.
