Correct. It is likely PV drivers will be available in an S10 update in the future. > Perhaps in Solaris 11. It is already in the next version of Solaris. But this version has not been released yet. The next version of Solaris will be built from the code in OpenSolaris. > - Open Solaris does not implement Xen, but one can download xVM and install > it on OpenSolaris. Xen support is in OpenSolaris today. XVM is an umbrella name which covers a bunch of stuff. Some of it is available today in OpenSolaris, some of it is still in development, and some off it hasn't even been started yet. There are roadmaps, features which will phased in over months, years, etc. If you are using OpenSolaris, you will see this at much finer resolution as features are phased in. OpenSolaris is a day-to-day, build-to-build snapshot of an operating system in development. > - OpenSolaris is supported by the OpenSolaris community. I am not sure what the official support model is for customers who want to pay for support. If you are interested in that, you should ask a Sun sales representative. The OpenSolaris community is a good place for individuals to ask questions and get help. > And I read that is not usuable yet. > http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/xen/goals-of-the-project/ > http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/xen/docs/windowsguest/;jsessionid=E336FB59B23DB2A7B6AB1447029B600D Sure it's usable. I use it every day. Of course, it depends on what you want to use it for. MRJ _______________________________________________ xen-discuss mailing list [email protected]
