The following is a synopsis of the advice I received off-forum: The PV drivers exist in the package: SUNWxvmpv, and the package files reside in: /platform/i86hvm
You may *disable* the package by renaming /platform/i86hvm, but a more elegant technique is to run 'pkgrm SUNWxvmpv'. The existing device/driver configuration might be somewhat convoluted after this step, so for the cleanest non-PV system I actually recommend unchecking SUNWxvmp during the package selection step of the standard interactive OSOL/Sol10 installation. Once the PV drivers are disabled or removed, consider using the rtls driver (which is likely the default if you are using xen or xVM) as your ioemu net front-end. This was suggested to be a well-tested driver, and the results of my ad-hoc netperf tests confirm. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ xen-discuss mailing list [email protected]
