Re: [Xen-users] Xen alternatives

["Pierre \"Le Pierrot\"" <cestpierre@xxxxxxxxx>]

Alright,

Thank you all for sugestions so far. Qemu seems to work fine here, but
I am not that very happy with it and doesn't get me the same feeling
of a product that can be put to production servers. I talked to a
local vmware dealer and he provided me a CD with vmware esx and
virtual center and respective trial licenses. I am going to try it out
and see what comes out of this.

Is there any provision for xen to support windows natively without the
need of specific hardware?

Also, is there a way I can download the current snapshot from the
mercurial repository in a tarball? I am working on a closed network
segment that barely has internet connection and mercurial tools
support for proxy seem not to function as I'd like (or maybe it's my
profile that has little or no access in this proxy).

Cheers,
Pierre
