Re: xen vs kvm for virtualization on centos/rhel?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



 as i'm reviewing the courseware for the rhel (centos) course
i'm teaching next week, i'm going to ask the occasional question,
possibly technical, possibly more policy.

 first one involves the choice for virtualization.  the course has a
short section involving virt using xen but everything i've read
suggests that red hat is concentrating on kvm for virt.  thoughts on
that?  i have the freedom to replace the xen section with one covering
kvm instead.

the one thing that hasn't been addressed yet by kvm scripts is that a shutdown/reboot of the host won't do a save/restore of the guests like xen can do. for that reason i still use xen for production systems and only use kvm for testing random distros.
