Has anyone done this and can offer some war stories? I''m thinking of virtualising our applications, which consist of a backend software package and then an Oracle DB that it interacts with it, but I am not sure how well Xen would handle it. I''d probably be looking at Debian as a base install as Solaris is still a little too difficult to get running under Xen (that I can see). _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

I''ve have difficulties on installing oracle on a debian system. Now seems it works but still I don''t tested in heavy load. _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
Hi, Oracle DB 10 works fine but Oracle Weblogic doesn''t. My env is centos 5 as dom0, centos 4.5 as domU and xen 3.2 64 bit.

I use centos 5.2 as DOM0 and a centos 5.2 domU with Oracle DB 11G and everything works fine!

It''s also free and you get to keep your Oracle support :-) Oracle VM is basically Xen 3.1.4 and it''s a relatively small download. You can also download images for quite a few apps to try out. (I know I''m biased, but really, if you''re thinking of going down the virtualisation route and looking at Xen then you really ought to be at least aware of Oracle VM.) jch _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
