[one-users] OpenNebula on BladeCenter H

[Ivan Porro]

Hi all,

I answer myself with first hints.

CentOS 5.1 run smooth on HS21 Blades (intel). I'm currently using NFS 
because GPFS from IBM is not compatible with Xen kernel. However, the 
cluster filesystem PVFS2 compiles fine on stock CentOS Xen kernel, and 
since it should go over Infiniband protocol, this may answer the other 
question.

Going on with ONE setup...

Cheers,

	Ivan
