Greetings all: Still plugging away at the load balancer and VM creator expansions, but I thought I''d add the next items to the Xen Cloud Control System todo list :). The next small items include virtual disk resizing, host status information, manual designating new pool master, and storage repository information. Next big thing coming after the load balancer is dynamic pool resizing. With dynamic pool resizing, the system will be able to evacuate and shut down unneeded hosts when the load is light and automatically restart idle hosts as the load picks up again. Anything I''m missing for needs? :) V. -- Vern Burke SwiftWater Telecom http://www.swiftwatertel.com Xen Cloud Control System http://www.xencloudcontrol.com _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Grant: I''ve got early multitenant support running on the stunt cloud right now :). The failure recovery stuff has been biting me harder (I hate getting dragged out of bed at 3am when the BlackBerry goes off :) ) but now that the watchdogs are working, the load balancer and multitenancy are up the priority list. BTW, there was something curiously satisfying about having a host croak last night and watching the watchdogs do their thing without having to lift a finger :D. V.

I have 25 people managing Virtual Machines and I don''t want them managing each other virtual machines. I guess I''ll keep checking in and when multitenant is working good I''ll bother installing it. The other features sound good though. Grant McWilliams _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
