Will SLES 12 be supported by SUSE as a guest operating system on Citrix XenServer? SLES 11 works beautifully. I have not been able to get a working installation of any of the betas on there using a SLES template. If I use the "other install media" template, I can get a functioning HVM install, but if I use one of the proper templates for paravirtualization, I cannot get a working install. Obviously, the HVM is an inefficient virtualization method on Xen, and is not recommended.
So my questions are:
1. Will XenServer be supported, either officially or best-effort?
2. Has any effort been put into testing SLES 12 as a XenServer guest?
3. Has anyone gotten it to work as a paravirtualized guest? (I can make it work HVM)
I have a full multi-node XenServer configuration running 6.2.x, and would be glad to offer whatever assistance is needed with testing/troubleshooting this.
Thanks.
