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



Would the addition of a NIC card (and dissabling the embedded NIC ) theoretically take care of that? I'm scheduled to speak with a Dell representative about the PE2950 today. Thank god you replied today and not tomorrow.

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.

I know that you said you wanted AMD processors, but Dell's PowerEdge
line has a couple servers that support HVM domains. I know that the PE
850 has support for VT and I'd bet that the PE 1950 and PE 2950 do as
well, as they are their new server line using the Xeon 5000 and 5100
series. A call to their Tech Support could verify that information.
