For either Open Source Xen or XenSource Enterprise, does anyone know if the Xen hypervisor can detect a VM crash and then restart the crashed VM automatically (on the same hypervisor). Also, are there any methods or tools out there to automatically restart virtual machines located on a crashed hypervisor on another in the event of a failure?
