Also is very easy to migrate one virtual machine to a server to another for maintenance/reboots.
(Live) migration is also possible with Xen.
What I don't like of Xen is the slow restart and the disk management (either dedicated partition or image file) which can lead to slower backup and harder migration; instead I'm attracted by the standard and fully supported kernel.
Does anyone have experience on Xen and have advice on which could be the best compromise between the two solutions? Of course with Xen I have to start all over on learning but... hey I'm a Linux fan, I like to learn!
An additional advantage of Xen is that it works with SELinux without much hassle.
