QEMU isn't really setup for multiple machine instances in the one binary. If you are simulating a complex set of communicating machines then you will need one QEMU instance per machine. TCG can now use multiple threads (one per emulated vCPU) but this has only been enabled for a subset of architectures so far. You don't say what architecture your servers machines are. > > > I am looking at this purely from a management/performance view. > > > Any ideas/suggestions? > > > Thanks > > Hoss -- Alex Bennée
