Hi Francesco, Thank you so much! I really appreciate it. I already ordered the parts taking a small risk. Yes, this system promises to be so cool and quiet, that I can practically use it as a pillow :). Cheers! iordan On Fri, Jun 6, 2014 at 5:32 AM, Francesco Romani <fromani@redhat.com> wrote:

Hi Doron,
I haven't purchased the Kabini-based system. I hoping that I would be able to learn in advance whether an all-in-one installation of oVirt would work on it. Unfortunately, returning it would be a hassle and I would not get a full refund for it. If there is no way to discover in advance whether oVirt will work on the system, I can take a risk. Is an all-in-one oVirt installation known to work on any of the modern AMD offerings?
Thanks! iordan
Hi everyone,
I'm playing with a new AMD Kabini host, to see how it behaves as very low-cost[1], low-consumption hypervisor host[2]. I'm still installing the node, so I don't have actual data yet.
According to libvirt, the host present itself as Opteron_G3.
Plese find attached the output from virsh (1.2.5) capabilities (caps.txt) lscpu (lscpu.txt) lspci (lspci.txt)

[1] You can get a CPU + mainboard with ~85 EURO or even less, and it will consume 25W fully loaded, much less when idle. The fan is close to inaudible. [2] I'll put together a document/wiki page with my findings and experience afterwards.
