Re: [Xen-users] What is the maximum number of resource pools allowinXen Cloud Platform?

[Jeff Williams <jeffw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think that what Fui Fui Wong refers to as a cluster is a vmware cluster - equivalent to to a resource pool in XCP - a group of machines of similar cpu spec which allow you to do HA and live migration etc.

The number of clusters/resource pools that can be handled by XCP is more a question about the management software rather than XCP itself - the hosts themselves don't know anything about the other resource pools. So how many resource pools can you have - unlimited I guess. How many can you manage from one app? That depends on the management software.

I think we have a communication problem here. What do you mean "multiple clusters"? The resource pool IS the cloud, it wouldn't make sense to have more than one on the same set of hardware.

I seem to recall seeing something in the XCP roadmap about eventually federating clouds, but it's still one cloud per set of hardware.

Hi,

 

are u mean that currently, XCP does not support multiple cluster in a single cloud.

 

Thanks,
