Since there is no distinction between WS, ES, and AS in CentOS, Xen can
support an unlimited number of guests.  I am currently running 5 on
mine...
  
I recently found a limit, the hard way, but of a different kind - the 
loop module comes restricted to 8 loop devices, it must be increased 
with "options loop max_loop=<1-255>" in modprobe.conf (and then reload 
the module, which means shutting down all vm's, so it's better to do 
this as soon as possible).


Just so that nobody mistakes this with some other kind of limit :)

It's more a matter of support contract.

If you bought RH EL 5 limited to 4 guests, what it means is that they
won't give you official support for the use case of 5 guests...

[CentOS-virt] How many gusets can I run with Centos 5.2

2008-08-04 Thread Götz Reinicke 

Hi,

how many gusets can I run with Centos 5.2? RH EL 5 is limeted to 4 
guests while the advanced server is unlimeted.


We like to migrate a couple of small physical servers and some 
test/development-systems to virtual systems.


Thanks for any hints.

Best regards

Götz Reinicke
