Virtualizing Windows Server 2008 with Xen

Since Windows Server 2008 falls into the Xen category of an unmodified operating system (in other words an operating system that has not been altered specifically to run on the Xen hypervisor) paravirtualization is not an option. The best way, therefore, to virtualize Windows Server 2008 using Xen is to configure it as a Hardware Virtual Machine (HVM) guest (for a more details explanation of paravirtualization, hardware virtualization and full virtualization read the chapter entitled [[An Overview of Virtualization Techniques]]).
This chapter of [[Xen Virtualization Essentials]] will cover in detail the steps necessary to install and run Windows Server 2008 as a virtualized Xen guest.
