Hi Chris,

Thanks for all of the input.

So far, just playing with xen I've only used the desktop which I don't much 
care for and command line virsh to control things. In my world, the best tool 
for basic management would be a cli based basic gui rather than the desktop. 
It's just too much overkill just to manage guests. I'll take a look at the 
above tools too.

Not sure if you read this full thread but folks have given some really great 
leads to quite a number of tools, some more complex than others, but all 
useful.

When I think about my concerns, they are really only related to win machines. I 
have a handful of win servers which need to be up and reliable and aren't using 
the greatest applications so can't be very redundant. That's why I started the 
thread wondering if I could cluster VM servers redundantly, hoping to just make 
the who win OS's redundant. 

Anyhow, it's really the win machines that are giving me the grief, the linux 
machines are easy to run redundant. 

Thanks for the input!

Mike
