Hi, [1] I have spent time learning Xen, as compared to Vmware. Is there an opensource tool for managing the various Xen domains both locally and remotely ? It can be commandline or GUI based. VMware has a Lab Manager. I am looking for something similar (or superior) for Xen too. [2] Redhat has the virt-manager. And allows us to connect the hypervisor to local host and remote host. How does that work ? Anybody has datasheets, or whitepapers ? Kindly advice. Thanks in advance. _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

See http://libvirt.org/architecture.html for an overview of the architecture. It''s written in Python, and uses libvirt Python bindings, so you you could hack away if you want to.

Hi, I suggest also to have a look at https://savannah.cern.ch/projects/vgrid I''ve seen it recently presented at a conference and it seems great! Actually never had a try on it cheers, Ivan Otto Jongerius wrote:> Hi Karhong, > > On Wed, Oct 03, 2007 at 11:48:05AM +0200, karhong.ng@nsn.com wrote: >> I have spent time learning Xen, as compared to Vmware. >> Is there an opensource tool for managing the various Xen domains both locally and remotely ? > > GUI: You might like xenman ( http://xenman.sourceforge.net/ ).
