Ask HN: VM Server options for BSD based operating systems

8 points by canadiancreed 13y ago

Hello all I have been looking at possible VM Server solutions for a FreeBSD box that I have. I'm wondering if anyone has any recommendations as to what to use to host VM's while still using BSD?

You'll notice the current options aren't great. Virtualbox is OK for casual/desktop use only. Qemu doesn't support hardware virt. The best hope for the future is Bhyve but it is nowhere near production-ready.

  Shoot I was afraid of that. Last time I looked into it was back in FreeBSD 6.2/7 and outside of jails (which I found primitive) there wasn't anything else.
