[Openstack] [Fuel] How to configure Xen + Libvirt using Fuel 8.0
Hi, Lately, I was trying to deploy the Openstack with Xen + Libvirt on the bare metal but that whole process can be done quickly using fuel which I came across while searching for solution for the above problem. For that reason, I want to know is that how may I change the default hyervisor from Qemu/KVM to Xen not (Xenserver from Citrix). Is there any plugin for Xen hypervisor in Fuel so that I can select that at the time of initialization. Please let me know if that is possible or not. I am waiting for for your reply. --Regards Ashishkumar S.

Re: [Openstack] [Fuel] How to configure Xen + Libvirt using Fuel 8.0
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.

Re: [Openstack] [Fuel] How to configure Xen + Libvirt using Fuel 8.0
XenServer is fully open source - XCP is no longer. You can download XenServer for free from www.XenServer.org without any contact with Citrix. 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.

>From time to time, randomly, XenServer loses all virtual machine definitions, and you'll end up with many orphan disk images that only God knows where those images belongs to. 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... On 1 April 2016 at 13:43, Bob Ball wrote: > XenServer is fully open source - XCP is no longer.

Re: [Openstack] [Fuel] How to configure Xen + Libvirt using Fuel 8.0
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.
