Re: [OpenStack] OpenStack with Xen

 

The link below is for those platforms using the XenAPI toolstack - those are specifically Xen.org's Xen Cloud Platform (pure open-source project) and Citrix XenServer (Citrix product, albeit open-source and with a free edition).  I can't get anyone in the habit of calling this option 'XenAPI' so you'll usually see it described as 'XenServer'.

Platforms using the Xen hypervisor but not using the XenAPI toolstack (SUSE Linux, Oracle Enterprise Linux, RHEL / CentOS 5) can be used through libvirt, though you may need to do some hacking of your own to make that work.

Ewan.

So there is a naming convention that we need to get resolved here also. It confused me and probably confuses other.
Is this for Xen (vanilla xen) or for XenServer (sometimes also called Xen)?
Maybe in the future everyone can start specifying which they mean also, just for everyone's sanity.
