Hi all I wonder if there''s any way that I can do nested xen on domU not dom0. This is what I plan. | dom0_T| |domU1_T| |domU2_T| ----------------------------- (domU1_B) |dom0_B| | xen top | ----------------------------------------- | xen bottom | And I want to be able to take the entire snapshot of domU1_B (including dom0_T, domU1_T, domU2_T) So far, only documents I found about nested xen told me to install the xen top on dom0_B. So I wonder if there''s any way to install xen top on domU1_B or any workaround. Thanks, - Hyo _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel

You should e aware that the feature is still experimental, and performance will not be so great (but better on AMD than on Intel).

Cc''ing the author and maintainer of the Intel nested-HVM code. Eddie, can you help please? Is this meant to work?
