It would be cool, and I suppose it could be done, given enough motivation. I have no idea if anyone is working on it, and I guess it would be a big job. But failing the appearence of a Windoze Brnaded Zone, the ability for Solaris to be a VMware host is the only way to get Sun PCi-like functionality on x86, unless Sun PCi itself gets ported to Solaris x86 (which would also be a fine idea). My E220R is getting a bit long in the tooth (not to mention, noisy and power hungry), but I'd like my next home server to be able to support SUn PCi (or similar) so that prevents me from getting somehting like an X2100. (That, and lack of support for my HVD HBA for my D1000. I know that the card itself is now supported, but I don't think it fits into one of Sun's Opeteron-based servers.) -- Rich Teer, SCNA, SCSA, OpenSolaris CAB member President, Rite Online Inc.
