Hi Martin,

I've never seen or heard of this before; do you have any more details or a bug 
on launchpad I can read?

XenServer is used under openstack for hundreds of thousands of VM instances, so 
some configurations are definitely stable and don't suffer from the issue you 
saw.

Were you - by chance - using devstack? If a devstack VM reboot occurs then it 
will intentionally destroy the VMs and may not delete all disks - but since 
this cannot be a production environment and devstack is intended only for 
development, we have not pursued a fix.

Thanks,

Bob

I gave up on XenServer because of this, it happened more than once, on very 
different places.

It is a big pain to restore it.

Open Source Xen looks more reliable and stable.

But theses, I prefer KVM on Ubuntu anyway...

For libvirt+Xen AFAIK that plugin doesn't exist and you would need to manually 
configure each compute node after installation.

The XenServer plugin will, of course, work with the version downloaded from 
above and does not require anything only available direct from Citrix, nor does 
it require a support contract.

Thanks,

Bob

We used open source Xen Cloud Platform (XCP) around Cactus/Diablo release of 
OpenStack. At that time, there was no good support via libvirt but via xenapi 
it worked pretty well. So if you are just looking for an open source working 
solution, take a careful look - xenapi & XCP used to be fully open source, and 
no XenServer is needed.

Thanks,

Hi Ashish,

Thanks for this but I know about this plugin. I wanted to use Xen + Libvirt not 
xenserver,
because it was using XenAPI (XAPI) tool-stack not XL.

I search through for Xen + Liibvirt but no luck till now.
