The It media reported that Sun has some issues to deliver its Xen-based hypervisor, xVM Server, in time. The release of xVM Server and the enterprise management console Ops Center 2.0 was scheduled for September 10, 2008. On that day however Sun said it wasn't able to release the virtualization solution in time and re-announced the launch.

After missing another deadline - for the release of the virtualization offering - November 2008 Sun, last week surprisingly without any press release released Ops Center 2.0, despite that xVM Server is still not ready.

The IT press published a new projection that Sun's Xen-based the hypervisor is rescheduled for Q2 2009. The French technological magazine LeMagIT unveiled that the first edition of xVM Server will not support SAN and iSCSI storage facilities.
