[Xen-users] Stable Xen Dom0 and DomU via Fedora 12

[Zhiqiang Ma <cnfnxk@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

Our group are using Fedora (We updated the system to Fedora 12
recently) in our research cluster and we virtualize the computing
resources using Xen. I have do a lot test and we finally settle on a
stable Xen solution for our cluster. The test shows it is quite stable
and we are satisfy with the virtual machine's performance.

We use Xen 4.0.0 and Xenified Linux kernel 2.6.32.13 to set up Dom0
since Fedora 12 no longer provides kernel form Dom0:

Fedora 12's kernel is already pv_ops enabled. We are happy to install
Fedora 12 in the virtual machine without any special configuration.
All the packages are from Fedora's repository:

I know both the Xen and the kernel are not the most latest ones. But
the current ones are enough for us.

Please give your comments on this solution. Your suggestions will be
highly appreciated.
