[Xen-devel] Is Xen allowing 2 cpus for 1 guest host?
I''d like to have a confirmation. If I understand well, for the moment Xen allows only UP guest OS even if Xen can run on SMP machine. It means that if we have a 4 CPUs machine and one Xenolinux, there will be 3 CPUs which will do nothing right? If It''s right, is there someone who works on that improvement?

We''re thinking about SMP guest support, but it''s a major undertaking. Don''t expect anything to happen in this area until at least the new year. -- Keir ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.
