OnApp & KVM

cnzhhi

Does OnApp support KVM? And are there anyone doing this?

Google is your friend: http://onapp.com/cloud/how-it-works/architecture/

"Hypervisors host virtual machines and give them access to virtualized hardware resources. OnApp supports multiple hypervisor platforms including Xen & KVM."

From what I know there's tons. I'm not sure about the ones on LET though.

Yes it does, and we're doing this.

OnApp is simply another control panel. (And its incredibly slow) so it should support them all.

No it's not.

Currently it supports Xen and KVM, with VMWare on the way.

Well when i tested it it was. Strangely though the UK2 version is much faster

UK2 control panel might be faster, but they dont half know how to make their hardware crash

When was that? I've been using it for some time on fairly low powered control panel servers and it's faster than most of its alternatives. If you want something really slow, try PIM!

About a month ago. Am using proxmox and Hyper-v and virtuozzo at the mo. Much much faster

So far I haven't enjoyed OnApp..just feels..meh

onapp looks a lot better than solusvm.

Not sure about the others but VZ is definitely slower. I use PIM at my day job and it's constantly timing out.

Yes, of course it is. Solus is a piece of crap!

Hard to disagree with that comment :L i hate it myself & the owners are pretty much useless.

Depends on the system i guess. but it wasn't the actual vps speeds it was the speeds of transactions (Reboot, Start, Shutdown etc)

Well both VZ and OnApp use similar queuing systems, which are adjustable in various ways. Naturally VZ is going to be slightly faster at shutting down etc., as it's dealing with containers rather than fully virtualised guests. That's the virtualisation, not the control panel.

Can you please PM me a login? I actually wouldn't mind giving it a run myself.

Didn't find it slow running on FDCs servers :)
