Do you mean 360 connected devices, or just 360 IO-APIC pins (most of
which are usually unused)? In the latter case, devices using MSI (i.e. not
using high numbered IO-APIC pins) should work, while devices connected
to IO-APIC pins numbered 256 and higher won't work in SLE11 as-is.
This limitation got fixed recently in the 3.5-unstable tree, though. The
256 active vectors limit, however, continues to exist, so the former case
would still not be supported by Xen.
