...just in addition.
I'm sorry for the religious NetBSD users, but we run several HP proliant
machines with a XEN Gentoo Linux Dom0 (Xen kernel sources adopted from Layman
/ openSuSe and/or Jeremy's Xen sources).
NetBSD Dom0 on bare metal doesn't fit our needs because we can't get any
special HP hardware running (i.e. smart array controls, iLo/IPMI access and
more) under NetBSD Dom0.
For us on typical NOC IP servers the couple:
- Gentoo Linux Dom0 (Gentoo should be easily to find in for typical *BSD
users as it adopt's many of *BSD typical habits) with
- NetBSD DomU's on top (plus a few further Gentoo DomUs for Linux users)
are our main choice with excellent experiences. This gives us the most out of
the HP hardware facilities, a current Xen incl. performance and NetBSD comfort
/ quality.
But i'm still interested in peoples which are running NetBSD Dom0 in
production on HP proliants with a full working set of the HP management and
monitoring features etc.
best regards,
Niels.
