This is just downright awesome now.

Sure is. When are the Xen and KVM packages coming?

@dafyre For now it has the same licensing policy as its Windows relative. And the one we provide on the website does have a special version of the Free license, so I'd suggest grabbing it while it's still there

@Reid-Cooper, they're on their way. I think KVM should be out within a few weeks

Awesome, that's great.

@Stuka thankyou, downloading the kvm version.

I need the version that doesn't require a hypervisor. We have 2 node with das and would love to eliminate the windows layer (and any other layers as much as possible).

If you put it on KVM you get what you need. That'll work.

I'll talk to the Maxmeister tomorrow about that though. Remind me if you can because I'm out early as it is Ciana's birthday.

Sitting with @stuka now.

This post is heading towards record love (upvotes). Apparently Starwind on Linux is a major win.

Has anyone deployed the KVM version?
