Ahh... Thanks for the answer. I guess we will keep the
performance-bound FreeBSD servers standalone then.

Rgds,

 Objet : Paravirtualized FreeBSD 8 Guest on Citrix XenServer 5.5/5.6 Host

 Hello all,

 I'm just trying to confirm: Is it true that FreeBSD 8's support for
 Paravirtualized Guest on XenServer still experimental/beta?

 Because we need to make sure that FreeBSD-based *production* servers
 can be paravirtualized on the xenserver hosts -- performance reasons.

 That said, I've tried installing FreeBSD 8 in HVM mode, seems to work
 okay -- might be suitable for the 1 or 2 servers that does not need
 highest performance.

 PS: I'm not really familiar with FreeBSD, though I am familiar with
 Linux. Some hand-holding will be appreciated :-)

 Rgds,
