Xen - Xen Management Consoles

Xen Management Consoles

Third-party developers have built a number of tools (known as Xen Management Consoles) to facilitate the common tasks of administering a Xen host, such as configuring, starting, monitoring and stopping of Xen guests. Examples include:

  • Servarica WHMCS XenServer Module SWXSM
  • SolusVM
  • Xen Tools
  • Ganeti
  • the Perl-based MLN
  • the web-based HyperVM and FluidVM
  • the web-based Cloudmin
  • the GUI applications Convirture (formerly XenMan) which does not currently support Xen 4 and Red Hat's Virtual Machine Manager, virt-manager.
  • the OpenNebula cloud management toolkit
  • OpenXenManager - An open source clone of Citrix's XenCenter.
  • XVP - Web-based VM manager for XenServer and Xen Cloud Platform
  • On OpenSUSE YaST and virt-man offer graphical VM management.

Novell's PlateSpin Orchestrate also manages Xen virtual machines for Xen shipping in SUSE Linux Enterprise Server.
