Hi Johnny.
That’s great news and thanks for all the effort with this.
I currently have issues with upgrading a xen VM host server from openSUSE 12.3 to 13.1 and one of the options I’d like to consider is installing Centos 6 or 7 using xen on the VM host.
I only want to replace the xen VM host server OS with another Linux distro with LTS that also uses the xen hypervisor.
So not having a 64 bit base installation of xen on Centos 6 or 7 has been a blocker for me doing this.
I’m watching the mailing list like a hawk now, (and have been for some time) for when xen is available for production use on Centos 6 or 7.
Thanks again Johnny for all your effort with this.
Kind Regards,
Keith Roberts
We have released xen (4.4.x) for CentOS-6 in production and we maintain it via the Virtualization SIG, which uses this list. The released version lives on mirror.centos.org and the RPMs are here:
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/xen4/x86_64/
We also have a TESTING branch of xen 4.4 and 4.6rc for CentOS-7 in our Community Build System (CBS) here:
4.4: http://cbs.centos.org/repos/virt7-xen-44-testing/x86_64/os/
4.6rc: http://cbs.centos.org/repos/virt7-xen-46-testing/x86_64/os/
Those are not really production ready .. but do currently work.
Hi Johnny.
It’s nice to know Centos 6 is production ready now.
I might give it a spin on another OS partition, and see what results I get on a test server.
Kind Regards,
Keith
