I use VMWare, but will start testing XEN...I use VMWare to slice up some nice big servers to provide dedicated hosted PBXes. We also use the VMs for easy deployment and is a vital part of our DR Plan...

I do know that I have tested it with 6 channels g729 transcoded on a 96mb xen virtual and it still worked. I do all my agi development and testing on virtuals. It's so easy to build and rebuild test servers this way. It also provides an easy way to revert to a snapshot. If you suspect that 1.2.x has a new bug you can quickly switch back to the previous setup to verify that. I should also mention that I am using xen for some client ecommerce stuff. It provides a means where we can have redundancy at affordable costs. I have virtual servers spread over 3 data centers this way. _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
