Config Notes
- Hard Disk Configuration: RAID 0.
- PCI Network Pass-Through: System was tested using PCI pass-through where one of the host network adapters was given to one of the SLES 11 SP3 x86-64 guests. An added, Intel® 82573E Gigabit Ethernet Controller, adapter was used during this testing.
- VM Driver Pack: All FV guests were tested with PV drivers installed. The SLES 11 SP3 drivers are included with the OS. The Windows 2012 drivers are available from http://download.novell.com (VMDP-WIN-2.1.exe).
- Supportconfig: Added /etc/supportconfig.conf and modified it with OPTION_SYSFS=0 to prevent system panic when running supportconfig.
- Install: System installed using the internal DVD drive; the OS was installed from DVD using the UEFI boot loader and system configuration.
