[Fedora-xen] AMD Opteron Quad Core CPU Availability

[Selim Jahangir]

Hi guys
Have you anyone worked on tomcat and RHEL5 ? Please hints me on how to configure tomcat on RHEl5. I don't see the tomcat packages in RHEl5.

I'm pretty sure Barcelona chips are unavailable except as engineering samples.  Last I heard availability was tentatively scheduled for August[1].

Barcelona has full virtualisation -- not sure about "all versions and price levels", but certainly any version which you'd want to buy should support it.  Should also supported nested page tables (boot the Xen hypervisor with hap=1 option to enable it).

Rich.
