[Xen-users] XCP, Xen Cloud Control System 0.5.4 released!

[Vern Burke <vburke@xxxxxxxx>]

Greetings all!
   XCCS ver 0.5.4 is hot off the press and available for download!

The big news for 0.5.4 is the introduction of the friend and unfriend 
features. Simply put, 2 virtual machines that are friended will be both
run on the same XCP physical host (ideal for virtual machines that need 
a high capacity, low latency connection between them). 2 virtual 
machines that are unfriended will never been run on the same XCP 
physical host. This allows for fault tolerance, so that a failure of one 
XCP host cannot take out an entire customer's service (I'll have an 
article going up soon on unfriending and fault tolerance with XCP).
XCCS's start-vm, migrate-vm, and load-balancer all support unfriending 
in this release. Friending is currently incomplete until 0.5.5 .
Other items are a fairly significant change in user interface 
appearance, several bug fixes, and changes made to accommodate certain 
browser issues.
As always, Xen Cloud Control System is available from 
http://www.xencloudcontrol.com !
