RE: OVM

By the way, it would indeed be helpful to have some statistics about how many use various things in production. As it turns out there is an active IOUG survey underway, so help:

For those of you who are not allowed to participate in any sort of gift or sweepstakes, there is a separate opt-in for the report and for the prize award.  

The more participation we get, the better the survey results will be able to tell us varieties of platforms with critical mass.

Recommend asking Systems Group to back up the 'unstable' comment - this is XEN 4.x (OVM 3.3 is XEN 4.3) and that version of XEN is indeed used in production and is considered stable.

Sounds like someone has been trained in a competing product and is sour on the idea of learning a new environment. Not unusual, but truly unprofessional - if true.

As for 'no one uses it', check out

Good Afternoon,  

We currently have OVM up and running but our Systems group claims it is unstable and that NO ONE uses it as a production environment. Now I know that to be false so I was curious if anyone on the list is using it and can share any information that I can bounce back to our group to prove them wrong J.  

Thanks,

Sean
