Re: DevCloud with Centos and Xen

2013-10-17 Thread CK 
For my host, I have Xen(XCP) running on Centos6.4, is there a plugin or
something that I also need to setup/configure on this host for it to be
recoginised by CloudStack 4.2?

At the moment when I try to Add Host it does not find it, what does
cloudstack look for on the host to identify it is a Xen host?

 hooks into KVM or KVM itself or LXC.

  In a few words; not easily.
  CloudStack talks to the XenAPI - which CentOS doesn't have by default.
