It is also my opinion, that this is a very important feature, at least for me. With PCI passthrough you have the chance to consolidate your servers onto one machine and each machine has its own dedicated hardware!David Muench <davemuench@xxxxxxxxx> writes:Really? Personally I think that is the best, most amazing feature of Xen. It's too bad more people aren't using it.I also haven't gone for Xen yet because of this feature missing. I'd like to run Xen on a SMP machine where I have a file/mail/news server in dom0 and a router/firewall in domU, i.e. dom0 should have access to most PCI hardware like harddisk controllers, and the router to the PCI network card. However, Xen 2.0.x doesn't support SMP in a way that makes sense in this case, and Xen 3.0 doesn't support accessing PCI devices directly from domU :-(From what I read here, I don't have the impression that not manypeople use it or would want to. urs _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
