Dear Kri
I read the thread on the “shim” that you wrote
to help Windows 2008 run on top of XEN with more efficiency.
I need to install Windows 2008 Virtualized on top of SLES10
SP2.
I bought a machine with 16 cores and 128 GB of RAM.
The question is: will I get the “shim” that you
wrote automatically or can you supply it to me?
Also, when I install Windows 2008, should I use Full Virtualization
or not? I mean, the Intel hardware extensions will be used or it will be
para-virtualized somehow?
Is there any measurable performance gains to either approach?
I am going to install SQL Server on the virtualized Windows
2008. Do you think that the performance hit will be substantial?
Is Suse going to support Xen 3.2 soon? Is there any
substantial performance gain between Xen 3.2 and pre- 3.2 versions.
Yours
Federico Alves
