Hi Paul,
I use Xen 3.4.2 in production on Centos with Windows 2003 server virtual 
machines using those GPL PV drivers.  I put it into production in March this 
year I think.

The only stability problems I’ve had has been because my Xen servers are using 
an NFS root from an at times overloaded NFS server.

 Thanks, Evan.

Subject: [CentOS-virt] Xen version

Hi,

We are thinking of using CentOS with XEN in production, but we are facing some 
issues regarding the 3.0.3 version of the xen hypervisor and windows 
paravirtualization. The drivers we are using are from here 
(http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenWindowsGplPv). The solution we found is 
upgrading to xen 3.4.2, using a strange repository (gitco.de<http://gitco.de>), 
and everything seems to work. Now the question is: would you recomand using the 
3.0.3 kernel provided by CentOS in production and searching for other 
paravirtualization drivers, or go with 3.4.2? Is this version of the hypervisor 
stable?
