Re: [Xen-users] Recomended Vendors for HVM servers?.

[Simon Gao <gao@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dell's new PowerEdge servers (including PE1950, PE2950) have very nasty,
wired nic1, nic2 switching order problem with onboard nics. Making it
work with Xen is almost impossible. I've been struggling with the
problem for over more than a week.

This problem is verified with different Linux distributions and
confirmed by Dell. Until Dell fixes the problem, you would not want to
get into this mess.
