However: hrm@willow:~$ sudo xm info | grep xen_caps xen_caps : xen-3.0-x86_64 hvm-3.0-x86_32 hvm-3.0-x86_32p hvm-3.0-x86_64 Is there some magic I

Hello, Earlier this week I installed a test server with CentOS 5.6 with Virtualization enabled during the installer. Today I installed another server using the same method (they are identical servers). I just did a yum update and I found something curious. Both servers have a different kernel. Server 1 is at 9.1 version and server 2 at 5.1. How can this be? How to I get the latest version on

I''ve been trying to compare memory access speed between bare-metal, xen-pv and xen-pvhvm (hvm with pv drivers). In all 3 setups I''m running the same kernel (3.6.6), built with support for xen, on a 64 core AMD Opteron 6378.

Hi, I seem to have an interesting issue with vif-route. This is after an update to Xen 4.2.1, switching from xm to xl. I have 10 PV domUs on the host and two FreeBSD ones. All the PV domUs are now working nicely. Since FreeBSD has always been just slightly broken as PV I chose a HVM domU for those, but with PV drivers. Those PV drivers all blew up now after the upgrade. I''m now trying

Hello, After saving and restoring a DomU (teste on the same server), doing a reboot to the newly restored domU will cause it to crash. This happens on PV and PVHVM domUs. I am using qemu upstream for the HVM guests, but I don''t really think it matters as long as PV guests behave the same. I want to confirm this if possible, before submitting a bug report and more details. I am using
