Since the performance group did stress test it quite well. *** Bug 513314 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** (In reply to comment #5) > There are no major fixes (other than the migration one), which would prevent > preview of hugetlbfs backed guests. > > Of course some basic testing by QA would be nice. run RHEL4u8 32/64,RHEL5u4 32/64,window2k3 32,window 2k8 32 and run stress inside the linux guests,sp2004 inside window guests both guest and host are healthy during the testing (In reply to comment #10) > *** Bug 513314 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Can not Reproduce the issue in kvm-83-105.el5. setting to *VERIFIED* Please make sure migration of a guest with large pages backed memory works.
