[Xen-devel] Question regarding XenSouce disk format

["parag shah" <paragsha@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
I am looking at the specifications on the file used to store hard disks when virtual machines are created.

For e.g VHD for Microsoft and VMDK for VMware. These formats have some specifications detailing the structure of the file/disk.

However I not able to find the corresponding format for XenSource.

Also I read several articles indicating that XenSource has licensed VHD format for it 3.0 enterprise server. Does this mean that the image files created will be same as VHD files created by Microsoft's Virtual PC? Will these files have the .vhd extension and can they be directly used with Microsoft's VPC player?

Thanks in advance.
