similar to: Decent motherboard with VT-d (Intel) support?

Hi list, i have seen a lot of questions about VT-d on recent intel mobos. however, it seems that all tests are done on the newer socket 775-based xeon''s or core2''s, and not the 5000 series (socket 771 based). i was planning on getting a intel S5000V chipset, but found out that it does not support VT-d. Can anyone confirm a mobo that has this enabled and also has 2x LGA771

Hi! I''ve got a motherboard (Gigabyte GA-G33-DS3R) where the Ethernet port has been broken. I''ll buy a new motherboard, but wants to keep all my other equipment (CPU, Memory, TV-cards etc). The requirements/wishes on the new motherboard are 2 Ethernet ports and 2 PCI slots. It would also be good if it would support VT-d. I''ve found two boards that would fulfill my

Hi All, This might be a stupid question, but I have two PCI devices that I want to pass-thru to a PV domU. I can pass one of them, but not both. I''m sure it''s a stupid syntax issue within my configuration file. When I do a "lspci" in the domU, (CentOS 5.1), only one of the devices shows up. (e.g.) 00:00.0 Multimedia video controller: Internext Compression Inc

Hi All! Quick question as I''m wondering if this is possible. On a Intel-VT enabled machine (Intel Xeon X3220 on an Intel 3000 Series Chipset), if I have a PCI video-card and a PCI USB card, would it be possible to do a PCI pass-through on those two PCI devices to a guest domain?  I''m assuming the PCI USB card would be fairly easy, but my gut instinct on the PCI video-card is

Hi All, I was hoping to pick someone''s brain about the best way of moving a Xen disk image (which has LVM''s inside of it) to a new block-device?  I have the target DRBD device ready but unsure what''s the best & safest way to do it. I was actually tempted to mount the Xen disk image in a dom0, and make it visible via loop devices and promote that DRBD node for

Good day to you Im a casual Xen user and am also using I/O Virtualization. I had always trouble getting DMAR tables (and IOMMU) recognized with Asus Mainboards, despite the fact that I always used this boards a lot. Since the Nehalem Intel architecture, I looked into Intel Mainboards due the fact that this seems to work out with Xen, Linux and VT-d. My request is, that someone who tried Asus

After contacting Asus, MSI and Gigabyte, this is what I got back. Only motherboards with the QXX chipsets and certified with the Intel VPro support the Vt-d virtualization technology. I''m not sure about MSI though, because this is what I got from their support: "Almost board could support. Please refer to our website, http://www.msi.com/product/mb/." The problem is that

Hi All, I checked the on-line manual for the Supermicro C2SBC-Q (Intel Q35 chipset) and it has VT-d support. Wanted to see if anyone has worked with this particular board with Xen and VT-d before I "pull the trigger" on purchasing it for a lab. Thanks! -- Daniel Kao Übermind, Inc.

hi, i have installed Xen hypervisor on fedora 17 and now i want to assign devices directly to a guest OS through VT-d. does any one know how can i do it? i found some solutions for that but those had some steps for when installing Xen while i installed Xen on fedora. i am going to know,can i assign device to a guest OS through VT-d capability with installed Xen on fedora 17? thanks.

Hi, I have just upgraded my computer to Intel Core i5-4430 Quad Core @ 3.0 GHz (supports VT-d), ASRock B85M Pro4 micro-ATX LGA1150 motherboard (supports VT-d), 8 GB Kingston DDR3-1600 memory and Cooler Master Elite 311 ATX casing (all for SGD$501). I made my computer upgrade on Independence Day 4th July 2013. I have also flashed the UEFI BIOS of ASRock B85M Pro4 motherboard to version 1.50.

Seems like overnight every motherboard that worked with linux has DROPPED off the face of the earth. Every motherboard I looked at is using the realtek 8111 chipset and a northbridge that is not supported. Example: GIGABYTE GA-970A-DS3, does not work with linux I tried disabling the onboard NIC and using a PCI-E intel card I always use and that would not work either. The north or south bridge

Hi I'm having problems getting the TE420 working in HP DL380G5 servers. The cards don't seem to be detected 100% by the BIOS. With two cards in the server they are never detected. things I've tried: 1 Update firmware to latest (P56) for the server 2 change irq settings 3 disable all onboard devices on server and remove raid controller 4 different cards in different slots What I

Hi all, I'm just curios and would like some input from the community on this one. We're busy budgeting for a couple of new servers and I thought it would be good to try out the Core i7 CPU's, but see the majority of them don't offer VT-d, but just VT-x. Looking at the LGA1366 range, only the "Intel lga1366 i7 980XE" (from the list of what our suppliers stock) have VT-d,

Somebody else has something new about the Asus P6T and this problem? How

Hi All: I have an HP DL380G5 server which I am loading CentOS 6.2 on and it does not appear to recognize all of the RAM installed on the server. The BIOS is reporting 26GB however top is reporting: Mem: 15720140k total, 418988k used, 15301152k free, 30256k buffers Swap: 17956856k total, 0k used, 17956856k free, 135536k cached and free is reporting: total used

I''ve got a client demanding the use of HP DL380 G5''s, for various historical reasons, for a server room. I''m going nuts trying to figure out if the available CPU''s for them support VT, so I can avoid building them a separate Windows box. Unfortunately, the local web proxy is overloaded, so actually browsing the JavaScript/image loaded web pages for HP is

Hello all..... I would like to know if anyone here has had good experience with this Supermicro motherboard.....http://supermicro.com/products/motherboard/P4/E7221/P8SCT.cfm I am thinking about using it in an entry level mail and file server with a 3ware card and 200 GB SATA drives. Cost is a factor here otherwise I would go for an Opteron board instead. JC

Dear List, I need to make an Aladdin eToken Pro visible in a Linux guest HVM, but I cannot assign the device to any domU, while it''s being blocked by the dom0. To avoid this trouble I would like to pass the whole USB bus to the domU directly, via PCI passthrough. Now I use xen 3.3.0 from xensource and xen kernel from Ubuntu 8.04 2.6.24-19-xen, because the xensource xen kernel

I''m wondering if the new Dell Precision 490 workstation is/looks to be VT-ready, planning it for SuSE10.1/Xen and unmodifies Windows guest? From the system specs: 1-2 Dual-Core Intel Xeon 5000 series 64-bit processors Intel 5000X chipset Windows XP/Vista or Redhat EWS4 Linux
