RE: [Xen-users] Win2k8 64bit PV drivers / production state?
Hi Niels,
Xen 4.0 has added support for the XCP Windows PV drivers and also works with
the GPLPV drivers. Both driver sets are pretty good and you just use whichever
works best for you. Also, I think timer_mode=2 and viridian=1 in your HVM
config file will help.

Subject: [Xen-users] Win2k8 64bit PV drivers / production state?
Dear all,
i'm mainly from the *ux world so i'm not very familiar with the current
Microsoft world - but we are working with xen over many years in a *ix and
purely open source environment.
Currently we has a discussion with a user who is planning to move some Win 2k3
servers to 2k8 (eventually virtualized).
So just btw:
What is the current state of Win2k8 64 bit (paravirtualized / PV drivers) under
XEN? Is it ready for small (LAN) production environments? What experiences are
there with Win2k8 64 bit on Xen (PV and/or HVM) related to questions like:
- performance
- stability
i.e. comparing with current vmware or other solutions (which do full
virtualization only)?
Is XCP a recommended point to start from with Win2k8 or would your prefer to
use xen 3.x or 4?
Many thanks in advance and
Best regards,
Niels.
