Can somebody explain why the number of CPUs Xen can handle is limited to 32?
I have a machine with 48 cores, and would love to virtualise it, but if
I do it, I loose 16 CPUs, which isnt very good... :-(
Where is this limit coming from? Or maybe it is possible to change it
somewhere in the source files?
This is done on the make command line, by adding "max_phys_cpus=...".

Yeah... I thought that installing it from RPM wasn't a good idea... ;-)
Thanks for the info. Will give it a try some time this week.
BTW.: Wouldn't it make sense to include support for max number of CPUs
when building RPMs?
