Well I like to be able to install my machines in the xenstore with 'xm new'<BR>
and then manage them from there, but virt-install and virsh are useful<BR>
too, so I just use CentOS base then replace their xen with the one from<BR>
xen.org keeping libvirt and now I have the best of both worlds.<BR>
<BR>
The commercial one isn't without gripes too. Like I wish they had<BR>
developed a fully web based interface for creating and managing virtual<BR>
machines like the one Microsoft has in their virtual server instead of the<BR>
standalone java client. I never really like standalone java clients as it makes<BR>
it one more thing you have to reach for when you need to get something<BR>
done, when there is almost always a web browser available.<BR>

I quite like the virsh and virt-install stuff included in the distro, I<BR>
think xen tools themselves are quite pedestrian at the moment. Perhaps<BR>
their commercial offerings are better - for me, the libvirt and virsh<BR>
make Xen a lot more usable<BR>
