 Well, if you use CentOS, then why not using XCP, the open source
 appliance, from Citrix? It's CentOS based...

 I heard about the Zeus project, but I'm not sure how fare they
 are with this. I'm Cc-ing Mike and Jon, upstream for XCP, maybe
 they will be able to tell how far they've gone, and if it's
 already in Fedora.

Hi Thomas, thanks for bringing me into this conversation. Project Zeus
is on hold for a bit while we finish up some other projects we're
working on. I do recommend giving XCP a try -- I know that the Citrix
OpenStack developers are keen to make sure that they work well
together.

Mike

Re: [Openstack] XCP toolstack support for devstack

 Todd,  Mike - 
 
 This looks great!  From the looks of things, the main difference seem to
 be slight changes due to the fact that dom0 is ubuntu, rather than
 redhat.  Is that accurate? 

Yes, that's basically it. There is much less to do in prepare_dom0.sh,
and it's much easier too because we can just do apt-get, instead of
compiling git from source ;)

 If so, it seems like it should be
 straightforward to support both with roughly the same code, and just
 if-else the ubuntu/redhat code.  In fact, we could probably even
 automatically check the os, and do the right thing depending on the
 situation.
 

I think that this is the right way to go about it.

 Since your branch was made, we've made some changes, primarily to
 generalize the networking configuration, so you'll need to rebase.  Most
 notably, we've separated the building of the .xva into its own script,
 which should simplify things a bit for this; build_domU.sh (which could
 be more aptly called install_domU.sh) is pretty brief right now.
 

Excellent, splitting build_domU.sh up should make this easier. I'll
rebase my work on top of your latest commit, and then we can work on
integrating the two scripts.

 I'd love to help debug and test this, so let me know what I can do to help.
 

Any testing you do with devstack using the XCP toolstack on Ubuntu will
help us out too. Thanks for taking an interest in this project!

Mike
