Look up Solaris zones. Built in virtualization for all mo's that swallowed the hype about virtual servers.

If you're already running SXCE > b75, you should already have Xen available. It's called "xVM" in Solaris. Have a look at the OpenSolaris Xen community page. It may be that all you need to do is boot the dom0 kernel.

I started using Xen with b89, so I'm not sure how things looked in b83. All I needed to do was set the xVM kernel to be the default with bootadm.

Good luck,
Eric
