Thread-topic: Xen Availability, Security and Robustness
All,
I am currently investigating availability and security in Xen. 
I am looking for references to Dom0 disaggregration.
There were references to that at the Xen Summit in Winter '06. There was
a talk about a separate DomS0 that was used to take care of security. Is
there some sample code out there that separates out such dom0 functions?
Also, Is anyone working on assessing the risks in the hypervisor
codebase, and possibly moving some of that code to a level where it an
error will not bring the system down?
thanks
Raj
