Subject: [Openstack] Switching to KVM from QEMU<br>
<br>
Hello,<br>
<br>
I just recently installed DevStack on my Dedicated Server running Debian 8 (Jessie). After install, I read that KVM would run better (and faster) on server infrastructure than QEMU. But I think I was too late to realize it. I had already initiated stack.sh.<br>
<br>
My question is : Can I switch to KVM without having to re-install DevStack? If yes, can somebody help me out by pointing to the right docs / procedure to achieve this?<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance,<br>
~ shine<br>
