Hi All,
I was going through some virtualisation stuff and stumbled across this site
:
http://ovirt.org/
The stuff they mention is beautiful, perhaps at par with VM ware.
How ever i don't know the fundamentals of this and am posting this in the
hope that some one might guide me to any other existing virtualisation
stuff in the Linux world. so far the only thing that proposes this sort of
stuff is VM ware and i heard that xen 3.0 to some extent is coming in the
right direction. is any one aware of other such options?is this option
(ovirt )existing on other distros as well?
Ovirt is a software appliance. Essentially it is a self consistent image
that contains a stripped down version of Fedora bundled with a web
application that uses ruby on rails, libvirt (
http://libvirt.org),
freeipa (
http://freeipa.org) and dns/dhcp. The virtualization itself is
built on top of KVM. The graphs are produced using collectd
(
http://collectd.org/).
If you are looking for virtualization applications, there are several of
them at

If you have more questions on this, feel free to ask.
