I would like to deploy a private cloud using Ubuntu Server 9.10. There is a -spa开发者_运维知识库rc iso available here.
My question is if any of the cloud packages included in 9.10 will work on sparc hardware? A search for sparc on the Eucalyptus forums yields no results.
I realize that "commodity hardware" usually means x86 but sparc boxes are what I seem to have a excess of.
The hypervisor LDom from SUN can be used on a SPARC architecture to run Solaris VMs. As you may be aware, UEC (Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud) comes with Ubuntu server 9.10 and Eucalyptus 1.6 built in. Eucalyptus right now supports Xen / KVM and even to an extent VMWare ESX as a Hypervisor. You must check if Eucalyptus can be configured to have LDom as a hypervisor.
