[volunteers] (forw) [web-team] Linode Support Ticket 9935651 - svlugmicah (svlugmicah) - Scheduled Migration for Sat Feb 17, 2018 @ 08:00 UTC

[Kevin Dankwardt]

I am curious about moving from Xen to KVM.

Is this common these days?

A particular issue with Xen?

Why the move?

Anyone know the motivations?
