PVHv2 - how to configure VM
-
Hi Guys,
"New" to xcp-ng and after loads of RTFM, can't figure out how to create PVHv2 VM? Would love to take the most of what it gives as new, long term type of system is being set up. It is Ubuntu based.
(https://xen-orchestra.com/blog/xen-virtualization-modes/). Standard install gets us to PVHVM with XE guest utilities installed. It is not yet PVHv2, right? Am on latest GA version as of today.I've used to use original Xenserver for years up until some years ago when moved to ESXi and now am back, thanks to latest Broadcom decisions.
Happy to use CLI, as it's most likely what it takes to set it up, just couldn't find documentation around it or is well hidden, that search engines ddn't find it.
Thanks again for help,
Bugsy -
HVM with PV drivers is now the standard. There's no specific plus to use something else for a guest right now.

@olivierlambert appreciate swift response. The blogposts and announcements some time ago lead me to belief that there is better way for new VMs on latest versions.
Thanks again!

Indeed, but it's a bit old, and I would say for many reasons HVM with PV drivers is still the way to go for classical server virtualization mode
