I am not sure if I see correctly? XenCenter is only for windows? On .Net platform? Why all open source software ends in windows??? Its a shame. I would like to know, why someone make such decisions. Xen is slowly becoming commercial windows program and all linux admins will end up with windows workstations to be able to manage Xen Enterprise product. Is there any way, how to manage it from Linux. This is Linux product. This really upsets me!

It is also available for Linux, so unless XenCenter does something incompatible, it might work under Linux. Mono is the name of the .Net environment for Linux... I''m not sure what version comes bundled with what distribution, but as a starting point you could just install whatever packages your distribution provides and give XenCenter a go.

Dev time goes where the money comes from.> Is there any way, how to manage it from Linux.

But this would be a good question to ask XenSource.. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | nate carlson | natecars@natecarlson.com | http://www.natecarlson.com | | depriving some poor village of its idiot since 1981 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
The only way I succeeded to run XenCenter in a linux based environment is to install it in a windows vm that runs as a domU ( I opened the RDP and connect it using tsclient) . So, the management computer for the environment is a vm in the environment. - doron James Harper wrote:>> I am not sure if I see correctly? XenCenter is only for windows?
