Novell Announces Four Features of SUSELinuxServer11

Article title: Novell Announces Four Features of SUSELinuxServer11. Linux is a technology channel of the IT lab in China. Including desktop applications, Linux system management, kernel research, embedded systems and open source, among other basic categories. Novell is preparing to officially announce the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 development plan at the BrainShare 2008 Technology Exchange Conference.

One of the company's goals is to make SLES 11 an application system that is supported by the new toolset, which is used to quickly create a specific image.

Novell also plans to release the SUSE Linux Enterprise version and a new embedded version for independent software developers, this version allows independent hardware developers to directly embed virtualization software and operating systems into the hardware.

Jeff Yu, technical director, said, "this is indeed a very important thing. We started to call all enterprises in the industry to jointly create the next optimization product in the Linux development process. this is SLES 11. "

Key Transaction Data Center

Jaffe also said that the primary focus in the field of technology will be on key transactional data centers, tools that allow migration between Unix and Linux, environmentally friendly IT, and continued work on Linux desktops.

He said that at the front-end of the key transaction data center, SLES 11 will include automated and auxiliary self-repair functions, including single-node cluster and automated hardware fault detection.

This version of the operating System will be combined with the latest Linux kernel and storage management technology, including the OpenAIS Cluster communication infrastructure and Oracle Cluster File System 2 that complies with the interface that can be transplanted to the operating System, the latest Linux kernel version is expected to be 2.6.27.

Innovative virtualization technology

Jaffe said: Regarding innovative virtualization technologies, SLES 11 will improve support for the next Xen system management program, support for cross-platform virtualization technology, and enable users to easily integrate Linux, Windows, and NetWare servers., the next version of the Xen hypervisor is expected to be version 3.3.

SLES 11 will include the new virtual application creation function, which utilizes the automation management software of ZENworks and PlateSpin of Novell.

New development framework

SLES 11 will also include the Mono 2.0 development framework, including support for Microsoft. net 3.5 and.. Net 2.0 configuration file, which can better support media access control and support a Mono migration analysis tool. This tool helps you to view what will be migrated to Linux.. Net application preparation.

New power management functions

The operating system will also have new power management functions, including Linux kernel support for feedback idle, processor standby power management status, and non-consistent memory access, it also improves support capabilities for hardware virtualization technologies such as Intel's VMDq (Virtual Machine device Channel.

Novell partners have long said they support SLES 11, while Jeff Smith, vice president of IBM's open-source and Linux software, said in a statement that SLES 11 can run on all IBM software and systems.
