Re: [Xen-users] XCP and Xen 4 (remus)?

["msgbox450@xxxxxxxxx" <msgbox450@xxxxxxxxx>]

Do you happen to know if there are any development builds of XCP 1.5 I could play with? Or nightlies maybe ;)

I'd be really interested to try this out since it might solve my problem of having backups of server A on server B so that I don't need to buy a server C or a NAS.

Also, what is the idea with getting it running on Ubuntu... do you mean you'll make another appliance like XCP1.0 but with Ubuntu underneath, or that you'll make all the parts installable as Ubuntu packages so it's easy to install on top of an existing installation?

I’m looking for a way to apply remus to XCP. All I have seen thus far as documentation from the remus camp is that it is included by default in 4x and above. XCP uses 3x…

I’ve built a debian-based Xen 4 and it works marvelously, but doesn’t have ‘xe’ at all.

Can I bridge the two?

I've been asking myself this question too, lately. Citrix charges for high-availability in its XenServer line (which is the comercial version of XCP), and I think it would be good to get Remus working on XCP. XCP 1.0 is based on Xen 3.4.3, but the soon-to-be-available XCP 1.5 beta will be based on Xen 4.1. I have no idea how Remus and Xapi would interact with each other, but I'd be interested to see someone test it out.

Also, you may be intersted to hear that we're working on getting the XCP toolstack working on Debian and Ubuntu systems. Hopefully we'll have a wiki page up next week detailing our progress and providing instructions for brave souls who wish to follow our efforts.
