NexentaCP 2 RC3 on XenServer 5

I recently went through the motions to install Nexenta CP 2 RC3 on XenServer 5, following the directions that I had previously posted for RC1. I’m happy to confirm that the process for RC1 seems to work fine for RC3.

As an aside, a poster to that original article (Bill McGonigle) included some instructions for using lofiadm to alter the miniroot archive from the Nexenta installation DVD image to use with Xen and XenServer (I used a separate OpenSolaris system for that step). Take a look at the comments attached to the previous article for details.
