        I had a similar issue.

        it doesn't appear to accept keyboard or mouse input from XenCenter. Fortunately I have Xen Orchestra up and running and was able to access the console to see what the hell was going on, and push it along.

              In centos?

              Which version of CentOS are you attempting to install? Minimal, Everything or Desktop?

                  Assuming this is for a server (what CentOS is generally used for), try starting at techmint

                    You should have set a management interface during the setup stages. Point a web browser at that IP address. If not, you'll need to login using a local console as the root user, and from that change the settings via the menu system provided.

                    Note that you only configure the management interface. None of the other interfaces will be configured on XenServer itself.

                      And if you're running the citrix "flavor" or XenServer when you open the management console from a webpage, you'll be presented with the XenCenter download.

                      Which is a rather simple way of managing Xen.

                        Like the ol' vShpere client for VMWare?

                            It's any Xen installation with the added XAPI layer.

                              Yup. Like the crusty fat client one. Xen Orchestra is the slick modern one.

                                Out of curiosity did you ever get an error like "Not connecting to VNC because no network was found" (something like that). I seemed to get it a decent amount with XenCenter, but I've never had it with XO.

                                  I never noticed any logging in XC at all when it occurred. I also like to clear out the even logs often so they don't pile up.

                                    Oh it wasn't a log. It just printed that on the screen and then did nothing.

                                      @johnhooks Ah, well I never noticed it, I'm usually working on several things at once and might have missed it.
