Re: [Xen-users] VM Management tools.



I also found that the available applications for this are:

a.) too bloated for simple management the hosted Xen guests, like DTC, which is a damn great stuff, really, but I don't need the complete management of the MTAs, viruscheckers, webservers, and so,
b.) support only a few distros, like RedHat or SuSE, do not run on Debian,
c.) require a fee.

So I'm currently preparing a very simple central administration app using only PHP and SOAP, large portion of it is based on DTC's stuff. The app will be released under GPL, of course.

Since my Xen hosting service will start on Monday, my latest deadline to get it into pre-alpha-justworking state is that date. :)

Seems only to support Red Hat based systems and therefore is not really easy
to install on other distributions (I like SUSE :-)).

Virt Manager : http://virt-manager.et.redhat.com/

Only for an Linux X11 Workstation...

What we need is something you install on all nodes and where you have a
central administration directly over a web browser or a Windows program like
the one from XenEnterprise - but in OpenSource of course.
Most administrators work with more than one OS on their server environment
and have Windows on their desktops so a good solution must be aware of this.

Why isn't there anything for the community? :-(
Maybe this will change when the new CLI is ready but we need something now
as not every administrator in our team is able to work with xens command
line tools (nor should everybody!)
