Release: Xen Hypervisor version 4.2.0

Posted: 17 Sep 2012 02:24 PM PDT

Xen, just announced the release of Xen Hypervisor version 4.2.0
The first version of the product was developed by The University of Cambridge Computer Laboratory and it has been maintained as free software, licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL). Xen is currently available for the IA-32, x86-64 and ARM computer architectures. It is used by many public cloud and hosting services.
Xen 4.2.0 is the result of 18 months of work on 300K lines of code of development effort, by 124 individuals from 43 organizations.
Among the new Features:
XL is now the default toolstack: Significant effort has gone in to the XL tool toolstack in this release and it is now feature complete and robust enough that we have made it the default. This toolstack can now replace xend in the majority of deployments, see XL vs Xend Feature Comparison. As well as improving XL the underlying libxl library has been significantly improved and supports the majority of the most common toolstack features. In addition the API has been declared stable which should make it even easier for external toolstack such as libvirt and XCP's xapi to make full use of this functionality in the future.
Large Systems: Following on from the improvements made in 4.1 Xen now supports even larger systems, with up to 4095 host CPUs and up to 512 guest CPUs. In addition toolstack feature like the ability to automatically create a CPUPOOL per NUMA node and more intelligent placement of guest VCPUs on NUMA nodes have further improved the Xen experience on large systems. Other new features, such as multiple PCI segment support have also made a positive impact on such systems.
Improved security: The XSM/Flask subsystem has seen several enhancements, including improved support for disaggregated systems and a rewritten example policy which is clearer and simpler to modify to suit local requirements.
Documentation: The Xen documentation has been much improved, both the wiki. This is in no small part down to the success of the Xen Document Days so thanks to all who have taken part.

App-V 4.6 SP1 Hotfix 7

Posted: 17 Sep 2012 08:34 AM PDT

Hi all,

The long-awaited (at least for some) Hotfix 7 is now available.

The following problems are fixed in it:

- The rename of files on a non-virtualized target, this target should be on a different machine (access denied)

- STOP 0x22 on systems (especially IBS) - the system is tricked into a shutdown and it then ends in a crash.

- Sftlist Service - crashed as soon as it is heavily impacted (usually RDS)

- STOP 0x50 on systems (usually RDS)

Then some minor changes with respect to the upcoming SP2.

The KB number is 2744141 and it will be provided 4.6 SP1

The last week posted behavior with Adobe is still not fixed here.

Best wishes

Sebastian Gernert - Escalation Engineer App-V

Using LXC to create virtual containers in SUSE Enterprise Linux

Posted: 13 Sep 2012 06:23 AM PDT

Creating virtual containers with LXC may trump hypervisor-based virtualization -- especially if you want to run multiple instances of the same OS.
