I
checked Xen Cloud Control System, but it’s not on line? I’m not
sure if Xen Orchestra Project uses XAPI; I’m negative as far as I looked
the code.
The
CloudStack Community Edition looks good (http://open.cloud.com), although it
supports only libvirt as far as I understand. Since they support XenServer 5.6
in the Enterprise Edition, I think they can add XAPI support somehow.
Even
if XenCenter runs only on Windows, I think it should be useful if it can
connect to XCP; it’s much easier to install from my experience. All the other ones assume particular
distro of Linux, and they typically require many things to install.

Subject: [Xen-API] XCP Management Tools Inquiry
XCP Users:
As many of you are aware, there are several open source
products available for everyone to use when working with XCP. I would like to
get some feedback on the various tools to get a feeling on how people are using
XCP and these tools.
Here are the tools that I am aware of (please respond if you
are using another tool):
·
OpenXenManager – www.openxenmanager.com
·
Xen Orchestra Project – http://xen-orchestra.com
·
Xen VNC Proxy – www.xvpsource.org
·
Xen Cloud Control System - www.xencloudcontrol.com
·
Convirture – www.convirture.com (not sure if they
enabled XCP APIs or not)
Finally, in the XCP meeting yesterday, it came up that
XenCenter from Citrix should also be allowed to connect to XCP as it does not
now. XenCenter only runs on a Windows machine and there is no plan to port to
Linux so it is unclear how many XCP users would leverage this tool. I would
like to gauge community thoughts on this as well.
Thanks.
