ported kvm to illumos and use it for their hosting so I'm willing
to be it has been tested far more than vbox on illumos. I

Hi Jared.<br>
<br>
I have been using vbox on OpenIndiana and it has been working pretty
well. <br>
<br>
What are you using to auto manage the startup/shutdown of KVM
instances. I use <span style="font-weight: bold;color: #204a87;"></span>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/vboxsvc/">http://sourceforge.net/projects/vboxsvc/</a> with vbox. <br>
<br>
Out of curiosity, are you using any Linux VMs in KVM that has high
disk IO/network throughput? All my vbox instances are low usage,
but I have been thinking about virtualizing a GlusterFS, because
there is no good DFS option on illumos today. <br>
