Hello, I have been testing James'' GPLPV drivers and found excellent performance when using iperf but have been having issues when trying to download a file from a shared folder on my Windows 2003 Enterprise HVM to any other system whether it is linux or windows.

I''m running Xen on RHEL5.

Basically what we have here are two servers that will each have a RAID-5 array filled up with 5 x 320GB SATA drives, I want to have these as useable file systems on both servers (as they will both be

Hello folks, i do not get access to a physical disk with xen. I would like to install windows xp as hvm to the physical partition /dev/sdb1. I partioned the disk with cfdisk.
