VMware 3i
HP Serviceguard for Linux is supported running
on a XEN host.

Known issues
A problem with the Round Robin load balancing function of Red Hat Linux bonding may prevent Serviceguard from detecting network failures in Red
Hat kernels. A package may not fail over in this situation. The driver has been fixed in kernels RHEL4 U5 and later. For earlier kernel versions, the
“Failover” bonding mode is recommended.
Notes:
(1) Not every product in a certified configuration supports all of the errata shown here. Please check that other products used in the cluster support
the errata that is proposed.
(2) Information on older errata that are supported may not be shown.
(3) Certification of newer Updates, Service Packs, and Errata will be completed as soon after release as practical.
(4) Supports the IA-32, IA-64 and x86-64 versions of the distributions but not mixed in the same cluster.
(5) No support for e1000e driver. This means no support for NC364T. Other network cards should be supported with other drivers. Problem
details are in the Red Hat bugzilla https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=451855
The e1000e driver delivered on the HP support
website may have the same issue. For updates later than 5.2, the driver delivered with the distribution should be used.
(6) This provides the ability to package and failover guests. Details are in the white paper “Designing High-Availability for Xen Virtual Machines
with HP Serviceguard for Linux” available on the Serviceguard documentation page:
