Well, it's not exactly for open source activities, at the moment. We need to move zones where we run our html5/web enterprise collaboration (think of it as an office365 replacement, but all opensource based, all xstreamos based, all web based interface written by us). We're thinking about releasing an open / free / ready-to-use distro of XStreamOS Collaboration, with all this stuff. Do you think anyone out there may be interested?

These are the data centers used by traders on Wall Street and in London. The systems run recent smartos on higher end boxes with low latency connectivity to many financial institutions. However if the need is in support of illumos open source activities let me know. We can probably arrange to make services available at no charge for those cases - do have to confirm that with management and I'd need more details of the need to do so.

They opened a trial account for me, but I had problem booting the CD. First time it worked, but I had no virtio support, so I had to stop and restart with HD in ide mode. No way to run it anymore, in any way, not even starting from scratch in virtio mode. Is there any particular option I must let them know to allow kvm run illumos guests?

Everybody wants you to run their windows or linux machines. I need some virtualized XStreamOS machines running around, but I can't find one allowing me to use my own iso install. Why? Do you have any durable solution to this (a part from housing your own hardware, something we already do...)? There are a few. I've run both OmniOS and Tribblix on Bytemark https://www.bytemark.co.uk/ Specifically the page https://www.bytemark.co.uk/hosting/bigv/ and their support is really good too. (They love people who run "unusual" things. When running Tribblix I found a bug in their DHCP implementation and they just got straight back to me and fixed it, and were delighted I had found it.) There are a number of other companies set up the same way, exposing raw qemu/KVM, which I've heard good things about but haven't tried personally. Eg. Vultr https://www.vultr.com/features/ If you could create an XStreamOS dataset for SmartOS, then you could use presumably Joyent or another SDC provider such as vrocket.io -- -Peter Tribble http://www.petertribble.co.uk/ - http://ptribble.blogspot.com/ illumos-discuss | Archives | Modify Your Subscription
