Upgrade to KVM - experiences and/or issues?

general

Hello all, we have a production server in London that is CentOS 6.4+Cpanel. We haven't upgraded to KVM yet waiting for the "dust to settle".

Does anybody have a similar configuration and migrated? Please do share your experience.

regards.

Unless you're using a custom kernel or a Xen specific kernel module, I don't forsee any issues. Regardless, if I was in your shoes I would clone the Linode to a KVM Linode and give everything a test run. Once I verify my setup works, I would delete the temp Linode and migrate the production one.

This process can run without anytime either if you have a load-balanced/highly available setup.
