Hi.
AFAICT, illumos-KVM does not provide any kind of cpuid signature like linux-KVM
does (using the string "KVMKVMKVM") or Microsoft Hv.
Is that something that is planned?
I'm asking because there is some work on OpenBSD to improve the OS under KVM
but it needs to detect under which type of hype

Hi.
I am considering getting an HP Proliant DL 380 G7 (model 583914-B21).
Are there any known issues with smartos running on this hardware (KVM and
zones) ?
Google did reveal some possible problems with the p410i RAID controller but
that seems like a long time ago so I am not sure whether that s
