Built to download
When it comes to virtualization, support really matters. Novell has added more comprehensive, enterprise-class support for heterogeneous virtualized environments. If you're going to run your mission-critical applications on Linux in a virtualized environment, then you need a partner who will support you every step of the way.
Make the Most of Today's Virtualization Opportunities
SUSE® Linux Enterprise Server 10 offers virtualization capabilities unmatched by those in other operating systems. SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 is the first Linux operating system to be tuned for the Xen hypervisor, one of the hottest virtualization technologies today. SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 SP1 with the Xen hypervisor fully supports:
- Paravirtualization as a modified virtual machine operating system on top of Xen-enabled SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10:
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 SP1
- NetWare® 6.5 SP7 (as part of Novell Open Enterprise Server 2)
- Microsoft Windows Server 2008
- Full virtualization as unmodified virtual machine operating systems using Intel VT or AMD-V chipsets:
- Microsoft Windows, including Windows 2000, 2003 and XP
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 SP3 and SP4
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 and 5
- In addition, as part of the interoperability agreement with Microsoft, Novell will support:
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server to run as an enlightened guest on Windows Server 2008
- Windows Server 2008 to run as an paravirtualized guest on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server
Choose an Award-winning Support Team
An independent marketing research survey by Lighthouse Research confirms it—Novell leads both Oracle and Red Hat in overall quality of Linux-based technical support. It's not surprising that Novell was rated the best of the three Linux distributors for overall quality of service. Novell has more than 20 years of experience supporting operating system platforms in enterprises large and small. And that's not all: Novell has more than 800 Linux-trained technical support personnel deployed around the world.
