Using virtualization software, system administrators can run multiple operating systems on a single server, therefore exploiting most of the server’s resources. This article outlines an evaluation deployment of a LAMP (Linux®, Apache, MySQL, and PHP) application stack for a live migration setup on a virtual machine using Xen open source software.
This article provides instructions for setting up a live-migration environment with Xen hypervisor software and the Linux OS. The application stack is the DVD Store e-commerce application, a Dell-developed open source application that simulates an e-commerceenvironment using MySQL and Apache.1 The DVD Store e-commerce application includes Microsoft® Windows® and Linux driver utilities.
The guidelines provided in this article may be used by system administrators who wish to evaluate the capabilities of the Xen hypervisor for consideration in future virtualization deployments.
