Starting Oracle Vm issues.

I got the below error while trying to start xen virtual os.


[root@adcdap11 linux_vm]# xm create vm.cfg
Using config file "./vm.cfg".
Error: Device 2064 (vbd) could not be connected. /FMW/vms/linux_vm/firststart.img  does not exist.

After I removed the contents of /etc/exports :

[root@adcdap11 linux_vm]# cat /etc/exports
/FMW    *(ro,no_root_squash)


[root@adcdap11 linux_vm]# > /etc/export

and recreated the vm.cfg file i was good.


[root@adcdap11 linux_vm]# xm create vm.cfg
Using config file "./vm.cfg".
Started domain LeanX (id=22)
[root@adcdap11 linux_vm]#
