Hi All,

Better late that never:

Since few weeks we are testing IBM Power System R2 server and we were
evaluating the capability to go on a larger scale.  We are lacking of
information regarding PowerKVM status and PowerVC so we began to try Havana
+ powerVM:
The launch of a VM went well (except an issue with glance which does not
gzip the image ... troubleshoot in process) but how does it works regarding
the network ? What type of network configuration it has been tested with ?

Thank you in advance,

Florian CHAZAL
