similar to: "virtualization state: tools not installed"

I just noticed OpenXenCenter (aka OpenXenManager) that is an open source replacement for Citrix's XenCenter. This tool works with XenServer. But as per the blog entry: http://blog.xen.org/index.php/2010/02/09/xen-cloud-platform-installation/ it is also supposed to work with Xen Cloud Platform. XCP is licensed GPL2 and is a combination of multiple packages. Has the team looked at the

Hello, I am trying/evaluating XCP to manage our virtualization servers. Now, I have installed it in a test server and as far as I can see, it is very similar to XenServer, but I can''t manage it with XenCenter graphical console. Is there any GUI for XCP? I could connect with OpenXenCenter, but it still isn''t mature to be useful. Or do I have to use with xe commands? --

[previously posted to xen-devel@ and xen-api@ but this might be of interest to xen-users@ too] Hi, I''ve refreshed the Xen Cloud Platform (XCP) .isos on xen.org with a new development snapshot (labelled version 0.1.1). XCP is a collaborative effort to build a complete cloud infrastructure platform, complete with a powerful management stack, standards-based APIs, support for multi-tenancy

XCP Users: I received an email from Alberto Gonzalez Rodriguez who created OpenXenCenter/OpenXenManager and is now working on OpenXenWebManager. Info to access the tool is: steps to test are: download from http://bit.ly/bres2U uncompress: tar xvfz xenwebmanager_rev24_full.tar.gz cd xenwebmanager python frontend.py and with a browser open http://localhost:8080 (or http://ip:8080) you need

Package: ftp.debian.org Severity: normal Hi, Writting this message saddens me, but no choice... Because upstream authors (eg: Citrix) have explained that they cannot maintain the current version of XenAPI, or upgrade it to a newer version, we have no choice but to remove completely XenAPI from both Unstable and Testing. Quoting Euan Harris from Citrix (it's not needed for the FTP masters

Hello, I am a system manager of a datacenter. Is this moment, we about 30-40 xen servers running 2 or 3 domUs each of them. We are now using (standalone) xen over debian lenny. We manage each xen server independently, but we are looking for a central management console. At this moment, I have the doubt about using citrix xenserver (the free edition) or XCP. I didn''t know much

One of the issues I''ve had using XenServer in a multitenant environment is the requirement for the VMs to have xentools installed as it causes significant issues when upgrading the VM OS or the pool from one version of XenServer (XCP) to another. Having to touch hundreds VMs (by hand) after an upgrade just doesn''t scale nor is delegating the task to VM owners an option.

Hi everyone, has anyone succeded to get something else than plain qwerty keyboard layout on XCP? I have a French layout keyboard and I can''t get the mapping to be ok in the VMs, weither it be linux PV or windows HVM. I first tried with openxencenter (very good software by the way), then with the xcp xapi debug web page applet, then with ssh port forwarding, and I always get the same

Hello, I am quite new on XCP. At first, i had a Xenserver server but i am looking for a full open source solution and of course I discovered XCP. Actually, i have one xenserver and one XCP server that I manage through Xencenter. I''m trying to P2V an existing ( old Mandriva ) server to XCP. I tried differents things, all without success. Boot on XCP disk to find a P2V option. ->

I have a couple of questions regarding XCP: First, there were rumblings that there are issues upgrading XCP (1.5 -> 1.6)? Any further detail on these potential issues, or what needs to be done to get around them? Second, it previous versions of XCP there were tricks that had to be played (documented on the Wiki) to make XenCenter believe that XCP was actually a modern version of XenServer,

Hi, I am trying to install openxencenter to control my VMs I followed the instructions but when I tried to start it I got:  File "window.py", line 44, in <module>     import gtkvnc ImportError: No module named gtkvnc does any one face this problem before. I tried to comment the import line and xencenter started but console tab is not working and it is lookoing for gtkvnc module.

hi，guys I try to install XCP using answerfile. I made all the environment needed well, and it works well without answerfile. However, there are so many machines to be installed, so I want to install it via unattended way. So i write a answerfile by copying the example of the manual. ------------------> label xenserver-auto kernel xenserver/mboot.c32 append xenserver/xen.gz dom0_mem=752M

Package: xcp-xapi Version: 1.3.2-9 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable I've following mostly the xcp-xapi/README.Debian instructions after installing it with apt-get -t wheezy network.conf is configured for bridge, xenbrN are functioning and shown with xe network-list A single SR is present, created with ext on a local LVM.

Hi Rob, I'm not sure you will get much pleasure out of VirtualBox on that hardware. It sits completely on top of the OS and it will grab most of the resources, even hogging from the OS. And it will run very hot. The Xen hypervisor (incl. XenServer, XCP-NG) is very resource efficient and with Linux guests (PV or PVHVM), it will run very smoothly. The same applies to KVM. My FX-6300 box

Just to throw it out there, there's also XCP-NG which is a rebranded (w/o Citrix) version of XenServer without all of the proprietary bits. The same people also produce

Hi. I have problem with installation XCP and XenServer on DomU. Installation just stuck after a while from installation beginning. DomU just stop responding, even reconnect with vncviewer isn''t possible. I''m using iso images to install. Dom0 is kernel 3.6-rc7 with xen 4.2.1-pre. I''m having such log: -videoram option does not work with cirrus vga device model. Videoram

Hi, Do you think it''s possible to run Xenserver/XCP or xen from an usb drive or memory card like it''s possible for vmware please ? Is it recommended ? Are there any performance issue :-) ? I would like to dedicate all of the local storage to hosting VMs only. Looking at xen/xenserver/xcp doc, i was wondering why there''s so few tutorial on installing them on usb

Hi, After reading XenServer documents and debugging, I found the previous configuration is correct, here is the one I've configured to work: In XCP, as in XenServer, system's network configuration doesn't really matter, it only make sense before XCP starts and handles the network settings. So there is no need to configure VLAN on host machine, and you only need a minimal one active

I see on the XCP roadmap that ocfs2 is in the plans. Can anyone give a guess on how long that might be? Would I be correct assume that would allow you to use sparse files on XCP when using ocfs2? I looked at XenServer this week and converting my existing sles domU''s from my current sles server is not easy. Since XenServer and XCP seem pretty close, will it be any easier with XCP?
