Thanks very much to Aleks Feltin and Eric Ham who point out that Xen capabilities are simply not available in the Solaris 10 kernel, and there appears to be no appetite for back-porting it from OpenSolaris. The recommended solutions are either to use OpenSolaris, which is felt to be sufficently stable for a "not so critical environment", or to use VirtualBox. Incidentally, the package I identified below is simply to make Solaris 10 run better as a domU, not a dom0. Thanks again, S. ----------------- ORIGINAL QUESTION ----------------- Hi, I have a requirement to run some RHEL 5 vms for a client. At present 2.6 kernel BrandZ is not close to production ready, so it looks like Xen / XVM is the way forward. However, all the documentation I can see seems to assume I am running OpenSolaris. I'm not - I'm running s10u6. How do I get the current Xvm stack? My basic install seems only to provide this: $ pkginfo | grep SUNWxvm system SUNWxvmpv xVM Paravirtualized Drivers Any pointers / advice? _______________________________________________ sunmanagers mailing list sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org http://www.sunmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/sunmanagersReceived on Tue May 5 00:24:30 2009
