Re: [Xen-API] Xen-api/Debian 7 - conversion and xs-tools

[Steven Crothers <steven.crothers@xxxxxxxxx>]

How can you say it's far more tested when xen-api is WRITTEN on a RHEL based 
system? That and Debian 7 just released not to long ago, so you're probably in 
the single digits when it comes to user support. 

To recap. XAPI is most definitely NOT tested thoroughly on Debian 7. Until it 
is, you WILL find community support difficult. You SHOULD change your OS in 
order to better be able to support your production systems. 

This isn't a match between your opinion of RHEL v Debian. These are facts.
