Hi, all, Is the Xen currently compatible with the InfiniBand? I found some information about the Smart I/O module, but it was posted in 2006. Is the module still maintained? Or, are there any up-to-date alternatives for that? Many thanks, Chiu _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

One of my customers handed me a copy of this paper and asked why are we using xen if it is so slow... http://morse.colorado.edu/~tlen5710/12s/VMware.pdf which is a fairly damning report of performance under Xen in comparison to VMWare, citing worse than 50% overhead of Xen in comparison to physical. Has anyone seen this paper before? James

Hi all, everything is in the title. How do I upgrade my xcp server to the last version. It is not actually a production server, but, is there have conditions/precautions I should care ?

Hello, I am a relatively new user of Xen virtualization, so you''ll have to forgive the simplistic nature of my question. I have a Dell R410 poweredge server (dual quad core CPUs + 32gb ram). I plan on utilizing this server with Xen. The ''dilemma'' I am having is whether or not to replace the 2x 500gb 7.2K RPM drives that came with the server with faster 300gb

Hello Everyone, I am new with XCP. I''ve setup several hosts with* XCP 1.0* and manage it through XenCenter and command console. Each host has two NICs, one (xenbr0) connected to a physical switch for Internet (said sw1), the other (xenbr3) connected to a physical switch for internal network (said sw2). I am trying to setup VMs and VLANs on xenbr3. I created a virtual bridge by

Hello, We are going to buy some NFS storage for 6-8 VMs on a single host, but want to expand to a second host. What storage recommendations would you give if you have between 2000 and 5000 USD? How about nexenta? what hardware would you use? any vendor? Experiences with openfiler and opennas? Thanks for the responses. Daniel -- +-=====---------------------------+ |

Greetings! I''ve got a FreeBSD-based (FreeNAS) appliance running as an HVM DomU. Dom0 is Debian Squeeze on an AMD990 chipset system with IOMMU enabled. The DomU sees six physical drives: one of them is a USB stick that I''ve passed through in its entirety as a block device. The other five are SATA drives attached to a controller that I''ve handed to the DomU with PCI

Hi folks, I hope this is the right place to ask - if not I can switch to the CentOS mailing list. I am running GITCOs 3.4.3 hypervisor with original RHEL5.5/CentOS5.5 kernels in dom0 and domU. I have phenonema I want to get rid of (like time running wild - really wild). So I am looking for a way to compile a kernel with all CentOS refinements/backports/additions and xen 3.4.3. I have

Hi all, Can anyone pleas tell me what would be best practice to use shared storage with virtual machines, especially when it involved high availability / automated failover between 2 XEN servers? i.e. if I setup 2x identical XEN servers, each with say 16GB RAM, 4x 1GB NIC''s, etc. Then I need the xen domU''s to auto failover between the 2 servers if either goes down (hardware

Hi all, I''ve got XCP 1.0 up and running nicely and would like to use it in production. However I''m struggling with the concept of bandwidth management. It seems like such a common problem that everyone must have, but I can''t find any clear direction in which to go. The dedicated host I am using (Hetzner) gives me a 5TB monthly bandwidth quota which needs to be shared

Hello mailing list! I have been working with XCP a little bit, and I have the impression that this distro is insecure. First, it does not look like update repositories are enabled inside /etc/yum.repos.d, although I''m from an apt background so I may be misinterpreting that. Where will my security updates come from? Next, it appears that the root password hash is directly stored inside
