Guest Operating System Installation Guide

Known Issues

Guest Screen Saver

VMware GSX Server: On a Linux host with an XFree86 3.x X server, it is best not to run

a screen saver in the guest operating system. Guest screen savers that demand a lot of

processing power can cause the X server on the host to freeze.

Migration to a Different Processor

VMware GSX Server: VMware recommends you do not migrate a Red Hat Enterprise

Linux 2.1 virtual machine between hosts when one host is running on an AMD

processor and the other is running on an Intel processor.

During installation, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 chooses a kernel that is optimized for

the specific processor on which it is running. The kernel may contain instructions that

are available only on that processor. These instructions can have adverse effects when

run on a host with the wrong type of processor.

Thus, a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 virtual machine created on a host with an AMD

processor may not work if migrated to a host with an Intel processor. The reverse is

also true: a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 virtual machine created on a host with an Intel

processor may not work if migrated to a host with an AMD processor.

This problem is not specific to virtual machines and would also occur on physical

computers. For example, if you moved a hard drive with a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1

installation from an AMD machine to an Intel machine, you would experience

problems trying to boot from that drive.
