Sun xVM Virtualbox 3.1.0

Lien direct de la news : Sun xVM Virtualbox 3.1.0
Nouvelle version majeure du virtualisateur de système d'exploitation de Sun qui marque une nouvelle étape dans son développement, la version 3.1.

Quelques jours après avoir sorti une dernière version de maintenance de la branche 3.0, Sun nous propose de vraies nouveautés et beaucoup d'améliorations. On pourra d'ailleurs noter l'arrivée du "Live Migration" pour pouvoir exporter une machine virtuelle d'un PC à un autre, les clichés d'états ou instantanés (ou encore "Snapshots") peuvent être sélectionnés indépendamment les uns des autres, en créer à partir d'un premier pour en faire des étapes à la façon d'une arborescence. Mais aussi le support de l'accélération 2D dans les systèmes invités Windows, un support plus flexible des attachements de lecteurs virtuels et des réseaux (un lecteur CD peut être attaché à un contrôleur IDE arbitraire et les cartes réseaux peuvent être changées alors que la machine est en cours de fonctionnement).
Le support USB a été réécrit pour les hôtes Solaris et on trouve un support expérimental de l'EFI et des cartes réseaux paravirtualisées. Pour terminer, les supports de la virtualisation matérielle Intel VT-x et AMD-V auront droit à une amélioration des performances.

Mais le reste du changelog apporte plus de renseignements par rapport aux autres améliorations :
Changelog
 
VirtualBox 3.1.0 (released 2009-11-30)

This version is a major update. The following major new features were added:

Lien direct de la news : Oracle VM Virtualbox 3.1.8
Comme prévu chaque mois, l'équipe de développeurs de Virtualbox nous livre une mise à jour mineure du logiciel de virtualisation de système d'exploitation. A noter que depuis quelques jours, le logiciel a changé de nom pour refléter l'acquisition de Sun par Oracle. On pourra également remarquer que cette version 3.1.8 ne corrige que de légers bugs... en attendant la version 3.2.0 et sa grosse nouveauté, à savoir, la possibilité de virtualiser MacOS X de façon expérimentale.

Bah en même temps, c'est aussi très courant de virtualiser un Windows sur un Windows ou un Linux sur un Linux

En environnement pro, je pense même que dans l'écrasante majorité des cas, l'OS hôte est le même que l'OS invité (enfin quand il y a un OS hôte ).

Je suis entièrement d'accord ... mais pourquoi pas émuler un Mac OS X sur un Linux ou un Windows ... c'est là où je critique ouvertement Apple

La virtualisation est couramment utilisée partout et elle rend bien des services ... Photoshop sous Linux grâce à Virtualbox et son mode intégré c'est un super truc.

Parce que le business d'Apple, c'est avant tout la vente de matériel, pas la vente de logiciel.

Vendre des Mac OS X, ça ne les intéresse pas, ils veulent vendre des Mac.
