Virtualization with RHEL5

[Yaboto]

Hi,


I have one server installed with RHEL5. I want to get 5 virtual servers out of it, each virtual server having its own hostname, its own ip address etc...

How should I proceed with this ?

I think that your start point is here:

Can somebody advice me about Xen ?

Shalom,

You have a number of options.

Built in is Xen, which lets you use a number of different technologies.

Choices that work:
kvm
Xen itself.
Sun Virtual box.

You need to look at the documentation and decide which will work best for you.

Since xen is built-in. I think I would choose xen.

How to launch xen ?
