Red Hat is working with Microsoft toincrease
interoperability between Windows and Red Hat Enterprise Linux
virtualisation.
This will enable users to get support for running Red Hat or
Windows as guest operating systems on top of their company's chosen
virtualisation platforms.
The agreement will mean that users of Red Hat and Microsoft
virtualisation software will be able to run
Microsoft
Windows Server and Red
Hat Enterprise Linux virtual servers on either host environment
with configurations that will be tested and supported by both
virtualisation and operating system leaders, the two companies
said.
Red Hat will validate Windows Server guests to be supported on
Red Hat Enterprise virtualisation technologies.
Microsoft will also validate Red Hat Enterprise Linux server
guests to be supported on Windows Server Hyper-V and Microsoft
Hyper-V Server.
