RE: [Xen-users] XCP releases
Personally I usually use PXE + an answerfile to automate the
upgrade process but I agree it’s not as convenient as it could be. One
possibility is to make a VM appliance with a PXE server in it: download the new
.iso, attach it to the appliance, set your (other!) host to PXE boot and then
go. It’s not much good if you only have one host though J
Cheers,
Dave

without having to use an install CD, though im sure its someplace in the
wishlist

Hi,
I think the current code in the repos is
pretty stable so it would probably make sense to create a ‘stable’ branch soon.
Next in the ‘unstable’ branch we could
start doing the fun stuff like Xen 4.0 J As a first step I think Vincent sent an email (to xen-devel IIRC)
with URLs to repos where he’s made at least some of the code compile with
xen-unstable. I think we could take those patches and build upon them. I’d also
like to regularly update the binary snapshot so it’s easier to install the
latest, greatest ‘bleeding-edge’ version J
Cheers,

That includes Xen 4.0? :-)
TEAM:
I believe that XCP will be moving to Xen
4.0 shortly; at Xen Summit in two weeks Jonathan Ludlam will be presenting the
roadmap and plan for XCP moving forward. I anticipate that he will give
some dates as to when we can expect Xen 4.0 in XCP. In the meantime, I will
watch the boards like you to see if Jonathan or Dave Scott post any new
information.
Thanks.

It
would make sense considering the purpose of XCP but I'm time is an issue. We
want the bleeding edge but by sacrificing too much stability. With Xen 4.0,
maturing of OpenXenCenter and a few other things we're going to be in good
shape.
