We are monitoring this closely. The current support is, as you said, very limited and constrained by diskless/NFS condition. Once the block device and a more complete networking support are there, we'll spend some serious effort in adding Xen functionality into our code base. Hopefully patching will not be an issue since we tend to use the latest OpenSolaris code release while projects such as Xen (or BrandZ) tend to stay several builds behind -- but we heard that this is being addressed. -- Mac _______________________________________________ GNU/Solaris Development mailing list [email protected]
