[CentOS-virt] open-vm-tools 20100425 rpm

2010-05-19 Thread David Hollis
All, I've updated the open-vm-tools packages that have been floating around to the latest release - 4/25/2010 - for those that are interested. There is quite a bit of new additions/changes over the past year such as the addition of a fuse driver for vmblock devices, vmxnet3, pvscsi, etc. SRPMS

[CentOS-virt] SPICE anyone?

2010-05-19 Thread compdoc
There was mention of some support for SPICE in RHEL 5.4, and mention again of improved support in 5.5, but it sounds like their main goal is to implement it in RHEV. Is there an easy way to implement SPICE with 5.5? Or should I download the source and compile it from spice-space.org? Thanks...

I think iSCSI is easier to implement and is certainly fast, but I'm unclear about the number of iSCSI clients that can access a volume (iSCSI target) at the same time. So, I use it with only one client at a time. -Original Message- From: centos-virt-boun...@centos.org
