Arijit, Sankarshan: Could you suggest some ideas that we could adopt as a subproject under XEN, which hopefully could be utilized by end users or manufacturers... Could you give your opinion on the following: Scenario: The main server running on a Intel VT ?AMD Pacifica with many GB of RAM and hard disk. Creates a number of different OS required for different users and the corresponding applications. Now the OS for application has limited resposibility as far as system resources are concerned. So instead of a standard OS, will the users be better off with a trimmed down OS which provides maximum CPU time to the applications, and reduce the overhead for its own scheduling activity? (minimize context switches ?) Scenario 2: To take care of high security systems, a system reports a health check for each OS to the XEN before a transaction is comitted. If compromised, it could shut itself down and XEN could restart from the last snapshot on the same processor or another resource box ? I am sure you could give some good ideas which I could push with XENSource and try out... Thanks JPM
