[Xen-users] RedHat 5 is out today, includes Xen
So I've just been contacted by RedHat about OS licensing: they took down my
name when I told them that doing Xen for RHEL 4 was prohibitively expensive
with their one license/guest domain, and I was currently using CentOS on
quite a few systems because of this and because up2date sucks so very hard,
and because RedHat support is less useful than my own experience and the
open source venues for particular software (like Xen itself!)
They listened, and called me back to give me pricing for RHEL 5 servers and
domains. I've played with the 4.92 beta, and it's not bad: the hypervisor is
still fairly silly in a bunch of ways because it prevents much control over
the paravirtual environment or with setting up multiple exported images as
multiple disks in the Xen environment, or with exporting one mountable image
as one partition instead of building internal partitions. (Useful for some
tasks, trust me on this!)
But it's not bad. Anyone else out there planning on using it?
