Feature changed by: James Fehlig (jfehlig) Feature #311112, revision 3 Title: libvirt driver for new xen toolstack Hackweek VI: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: James Fehlig (jfehlig) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Xen 4.1.0 (due February 2011) will be the first release in which the new xl/libxl (aka libxenlight [1]) toolstack will be the default, preferred tool set. Although still included in the release, the legacy xm/xend toolstack will be disabled and in process of deprecation. libvirt needs a hypervisor driver that can communicate with the new Xen toolstack. I'll be working on a libvirt driver for libxl during HW6. + [1] http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2009-11/msg00436.html Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: There are many tools using libvirt: vm-install, virt- manager, virt-viewer, vhostmd, libvirt-cim, ... None of these tools will work with Xen 4.1.0 without a libvirt libxl driver. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/311112
