Jumbo frames in Xen 5.5

[pinkpanther56]

I've seen in a few posts that jumbo frames we're not supported upto Xenserver 5 but I can't seem to find any information to tell me if it's supported in Xenserver 5.5. There is a small section in the admin guide saying that it can be enabled but I can't see if it's properly supported by Citrix.

I'd like to find out as I have my SAN and HP switch set to handle jumbo frames but it looks like Xen doesn't support them.

Can anyone shed any light on this?

Thanks.

Did you ever find an answer to this?

As far as I can gather from the forums it isn't supported, it can be enabled using the command in the guide but i've read of a few issues with it which is probably why Citrix don't support it yet.
I'm currently running two servers with bonded NICs that are supporting 4 VM's each of which 2 are busy fileservers and I've not noticed any performance issues yet. I've got the traffic in a seperate IP subnet and VLAN, all iSCSI traffic also goes through the same switch.
