Looks like ovirt-engine and vdsm support for IBM POWER 7 is on road map. Is there a plan to support IBM POWER6 architecture? We're looking to virtualize 5 x IBM POWER6 BladeCenter H to utilize libvirt and KVM on SLES11 pcc64 blades. Thanks

I do not even know if kvm and libvirt supports POWER6. But if they do, I would guess that the cited initiative can be easily extended to included POWER6. Particularly, if there is a famous government agency backing the effort (with testing/devel/whatever). Dan.
