Can ARCN Hypervisor run on the server use Intel Xeon(for example: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2620 v3 @ 2.40GHz) chipset?

I want to test it on the server.

Thanks so much.

Hi @andyzheung, suppose there are 2 questions:

  1. Xeon(R) CPU support: Yes, Xeon is not in current ACRN Supported HW List: https://projectacrn.github.io/latest/reference/hardware.html#hardware, but from ACRN arch design perspective, it could be also supported and very welcome community to try it together with "config tool": load board->scenraio/vm config->launch scripts. https://projectacrn.github.io/latest/tutorials/acrn_configuration_tool.html
  2. COTS: do you mean CentOS as SOS? Clear Linux is current default SOS, there are also Unbutu/Debian as SOS tutorials: https://projectacrn.github.io/latest/develop.html#service-vm-tutorials, step should be very similar, you may try and feel free to submit detailed questions in mailing list or issues in github, both for Xeon and CentOS discussion, thanks.
