I read about that on libvirt.org but chose not to make any changes since the Xen server already works with the same config I have on the KVM server. I understood libvirt to be a layer that lets one compatible tool work with many different hypervisors, so I didn't think I'd need to change my libvirt config to work with KVM if it already works with Xen. That might be a bad assumption, though, and I'm not wedded to it. :) > Another hint: you will have a better chance of getting replies by > posting to the centos-virt mailing list. I did that and will take the discussion there. Thanks, Tom _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
