[clue-tech] virtualization

[dennisjperkins at comcast.net]

I think so, too. Definitely not an August target. 

At this point I'm not ready to attempt showing qemu-kvm. I'm just starting to learn it. However, we have other people who already use it.

I can't speak for Shawn (sp!), but I'd love to do a virtualization shootout. 

I think it bears a bit of planning, since I know there are features I don't use, and I'll bet there are features others don't use, so we probably want to derive a master feature list to check our products against. This might be a start... 

- Snapshots (one? many? tree?) 
- Grow-able image files 
- Export to OVF, Import from OVF 
- Move running guest from one host machine to another 
- Move quiescent guest from one host machine to another 
- Start a network-based guest over (iSCSI, AOE, NFS, SMB, yada...)
