I could be wrong here, but if my memory is somewhat intact, I think XEN
is not playing to well with OpenBSD. There was worked done to port it to
OpenBSD, I think it was two years ago, but I can't remember exactly,
it's in the archive anyway and as far as I know, there wasn't to much
good exchange on misc@ about it and not great success.
So, I would strongly suggest to research it first, I know there was some
real try about it but somehow fail in the end to finish I think.
Again, don't take my word on this one, that's what I kind of recall, but
my memory is known to fail at time! (;p>
Xen is not limited to paravirtualization (as you recall, a port of
OpenBSD as a Xen paravirtualized DomU was being developed but was not
finished).
It also offers full-virtualization relying on CPUs with hardware
virtualization capabilities.
Thanks for correcting me on this one. See I wasn't sure and memory failed.
Glad to get the details corrected.
Best,
Daniel
PS: Thanks to Janne as well.
