Any thoughts?
No, I don't believe you can. Rather, not the KVM portion. You can certainly do the rest of the clustering part, but running KVM in VMWare (or any other VM) doesn't work, from my limited testing. Though to be fair, my vm-in-vm test was kvm -> vmware, so I don't want to sound the expert. If it helps at all; I included the hardware I used to write the tutorial specifically to provide a fairly inexpensive test bed for people who don't have servers laying around. The parts should be less than $1k (canadian) per node. You don't need a layer 2 switch for learning/testing, so two dumb 8-port switches will suffice. If you use the mainboards I mention, then you will have IPMI for fencing so, again for testing, you can forgo the PDU. hth :) -- Digimer E-Mail: [email protected] Freenode handle: digimer Papers and Projects: http://alteeve.com Node Assassin: http://nodeassassin.org "omg my singularity battery is dead again. stupid hawking radiation." - epitron _______________________________________________ rhelv6-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rhelv6-list
