I was under the impression that VI had now abandoned the "virtual SMP cluster" 
approach, and were concentrating on providing management products for their 
Xen-based package.

Apparently they were finding it so hard to persuade potential customers to use 
Infiniband it was more like selling the IB adapters than software...  I think 
the cluster SMP stuff was predicated on people having IB infrastructure, 
that's not yet widely deployed.

Cheers,
Mark
