Closed laeti-tia closed 8 years ago

Andy, here is my patch to detect Xen guests. Let me know if you think there's something missing or should be done differently.

Thanks,

Interesting blog. I also added detection for Microsoft Virtual PC since I saw a few of those in the LS as well.

There is already a few programs for detecting virtualization, if we want to use them.

Debian:

imvirt - detects several virtualizations imvirt-helper - helper programs to detect several virtualizations libimvirt-perl - Perl module for detecting several virtualizations virt-what - detect if we are running in a virtual machine

CentOS:

perl-Sys-Detect-Virtualization.x86_64 : Library to detect if a UNIX system is running as a virtual : machine virt-what.x86_64 : Detect if we are running in a virtual machine virtdetect.noarch : Detect if a UNIX system is running as a virtual machine
