I suspected my best choice to be xVM.
Is it ready for production?
Will I have any Solaris kernel difference by running the xvm kernel? I will
need to run some parts of my softwares inside the host (ipfilter, bacula,
named, etc).
About w2k3: why does 2k8 runs better than 2k3 on virtual? I will check, surely.
Thx agian ;)
Hello,
I've never checked VB but I run a home server with a setup looking like
I think you want yours to be (but more as a test than real prod).
My server is a quad core Q6600 with 8GB ram (non-ECC btw, :-( ). hich
I have run xvm every new version of SXCE from b75 (I think) to b130,
then migrated to b131. I just upgraded to b132.
New times, because I also changed my upgrade way : I used to do fresh
installs on my system pool (with the SXCE late text-installer) and I now
upgraded via pkg-update, which seems ok.
Now the hosts : they are run on zvols :
I run a windows server 2008 R2 (on evaluation) acting as AD server for
both virtual and real clients.
Also is the name server.
I have a virtual W7 client and a couple of real clients running W7 and
XP (my laptop, wy wife's, my sun's desktop...
I also run in a zone a cyrus-imap server.
BTW you should try zones instead of xvm guests, if you have no specific
reason to want a full blown guest host
My setup works allright, I cannot advise you against VB, but I can try
to answer your questions, though, as said, this is a non-prod oriented
setup.
