Re: [rhelv6-beta-list] Live migration

[wari...@gmail.com]

Just to add (tho might be out of topic a bit) U can use RHEV (which is based
on KVM) and setup different virtualization clusters of AMD and Intel so they
only migrate towards each other.

Just my 2 cent..

[rhelv6-beta-list] Virtio-win package

[wari...@gmail.com]

Hi,

Just wondering is the "virtio-win" package is available in RHEL 6 to install
paravirt drivers on Windows OS? Couldnt find it the optional repo nor the
main repo. It seems to only return the "virt-v2v" package or am I missing
something here?
