There was a bunch of discussion about the live migration features of bhyve on a recent episode of “Oxide and Friends” https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=eQR98smFYTc

  It’s funny this article popped up. I have been trying to get the oxide vmm working on freebsd in my spare time. Too bad I don’t know nearly enough about rust, bhyve, openbsd or illumos to ever come close to get this working.

    While illumos carries a port of bhyve which is largely similar to upstream FreeBSD, there are several areas where it diverges. Propolis (the userspace VMM component) relies on some of those differences to function, especially when it comes to live migration.

      Well I notice that alias from the propolis repo :). Thanks for the heads up. Will probably ditch this effort. Really want to play around with some of the oxide stuffs but it’s hard with illumos not supporting nested virt.
