The Jasper chip should be able to be used with hypervisors as it has VT-x and VT-d. Wish they listed the chipset for the Ethernet however, as VMware 7.x/8.x only supports a limited number (unlike 6.x which allowed community drivers). You might be able to host a handful of small low IO/CPU VMs on this.
EDIT: Found the block diagram and these are Realtek RTL8125B. Not compatible with ESXi 7/8.. can use under 6.7 but I believe that's out of support now :/
- sliken 4y agoFor such a small system VMware seems like a weird choice. Why not proxmox?
- Severian 4y agoMainly for homelab use to complement work environment.
- rcarmo 4y agoOr just use Proxmox and fill it with dozens of LXC containers :)
- Severian 4y agoIndeed. Regretfully I would like to use this with the software I help support, which only runs under the major 2 players (VMware / Hyper-V).
- ydj 4y agoI bought one of these to play with xcp-ng, but I didn’t do enough research or I’d have known that there’s problems with jasper lake, and they won’t have a working release till end of year.
