[Xen-users] Xen and InfiniBand



Hello list,

I'm planning to set up a cluster with an Infiniband interconnection network. The cluster consists of multiple PCs - each equipped with two Intel XEON 64bit QuadCores and providing up to 7 virtual XEN instances.

I'm very new to IB, so my questions are:

1) Is there a tutorial about XEN and IB available?

2) Is IB supported by the XEN kernel?

3) Which IB adapters are supported?

4) Is ist possible that the virtual xen instances (DomNs) share the IB adapter
and provide XEN bridging or natting solution similar to Ethernet?

5) What differences exist when using IB between paravirtual
XEN instances and Hardware Virtual Machines?

Hope for feedback
Christian Stenzel
