Re: [Xen-users] Xen DomU/Guest SMP - Working ?
Yes, its the stock Xen that came with Fedora 6. I just picked
Virtualization and it automatically setup Dom0 with Xen kernel. So adding
a guest using virt-manager was no problem once you got past "horribly
broken" mouse problem (very painful). Other than that I am very impressed
with the ease of use.
Cool.
I am pleasantly surprise to see that Xen SMP guest works in Xen 3. I looked
at some very recent posts that seemed to indicate it was still UP. May be
its turned on in unstable tree that Fedora derives from.
SMP for paravirt guests has been available since Xen 3 was released last
year - however, HVM (fully virtualised) guests were limited to UP until
recently. I think that restriction may have been lifted in 3.0.4 now... or
if not I imagine it'll be doable in 3.0.5. Someone can probably fill in
more details...
Cheers,
Mark
thanks for the good news.

Excellent! Nice hardware too, glad to hear Xen works well on it. Is that
the stock FC6 Xen package?
Guests can be multiprocessor in Xen 3 - the uniprocessor restriction only
applied in Xen 1 and Xen 2. Of course, you have to be running a guest OS
that supports Xen's SMP interface, but the Linux port does.
Cheers,
Mark
