Re: [Xen-users] XCP - Maximum CPU cores

32bit kernel? Does that mean XCP can only run 32bit guests?

It's based on 32-bit CentOS 5.5 + a custom kernel.

Technically, it is possible as XCP is open source. You would have to download the source ISO and rebuild Xen with nr_phys_cpus=128. Trying to
replace Xen in XCP with the Xen 4.x might be more difficult.


True it is open source and should be possible. You're going to want to
make sure you use at least the 4.1 branch as it has better libxl
integration.

Continuation of this conversation, XCP is based on RedHat correct ? which
version?
cat /etc/redhat-release
XCP release 1.0.0-42052c (xcp)
[root@xenserver-gvratnau ~]# uname -a
Linux xenserver-gvratnau 2.6.32.12-0.7.1.xs1.0.0.311.170586xen #1 SMP Tue
Feb 1 17:10:20 EST 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
And if i use the source ISO im not getting version 4.1, so i need to
natively build XEN 4.1 branch on some redhat release... then "remaster" the
iso so its installable
on multiple systems without the pain of manually doing this to say 20
machines. I realize im way ahead of the curve here probably and am willing
to suffer through
some pain, and well report back, document the needed steps, however the remastering piece im sure someone can provide a clue to how this is done.
