Hi There, I am currently running CentOS 5.1 with the RPMs that come with the "Virtualization" package and using the virt-manager gui. I really like the look of "convirt" (formerly "xenman") and was thinking of doing the following: - Compile the SRPMs for Xen 3.2 from source and install over top of the existing Xen (I have an x86_64 machine) - Use the latest version of Convirt I was wondering if anyone has done either of the above, and if you had run into any problems? In other words: 1.) What sort of issues (if any) did you run in to when installing Xen 3.2 over top of the the 3.0.3 that comes with CentOS 5.1? 2.) Are you running in to issues using Convirt (I had heard about some issues some users had had trying to using it under CentOS5, but wanted to see of they still persist) TIA for your advice. -Alan

Actually, I think that this xen 3.2 package is one of the buggiest packages I have seen of a major and mature Linux software in some time. Fortunately, the bugs all seem to be minor ones in the GUI.
