The xapi toolstack
- manages clusters of Xen hosts with shared storage and networking
- allows running VMs to be migrated between hosts (with or without storage) with minimal downtime
- automatically restarts VMs after host failure (High Availability)
- allows cross-site Disaster Recovery
- simplifies maintenance through Rolling Pool Upgrade
- collects performance statistics for historical analysis and for alerting
- has a full-featured XML-RPC based API, used by clients such as XenCenter, Xen Orchestra, OpenStack and CloudStack
The xapi toolstack is developed by the xapi project: a sub-project of the Linux Foundation Xen Project.
The easiest way to use it is to install Citrix Hypervisor Express Edition or XCP-ng.
Otherwise, you can
- follow the build instructions
- try experimental ARM packages
