Project XVP

November 13, 2009 by Kris Buytaert 1 Comment

On blog.xen.org we read about XVP , one of the most common questions for XenServer is a webinterface to manage the VM’s from a browser.  XVP , developed by Colin Dean at the Durham University in the UK has one based on 4 components.

  • xvpweb: A web front end for XenServer, running on Apache/PHP. It will provid
    e you with status views , facilities to shutdown, reboot and look at virtual mac
    hines and their consoles
  • xvpviewer: A Java applet for accessing XenServer consoles (used by xvpweb, of course). a custom Java based VNC client, based on TightVNC but with xvp specif
    ic additions.
  • xvp: A server-side proxy for XenServer consoles, so that you can use ordinary VNC clients xvp stands for Xen VNC Proxy it will be used as a VNC proxy to the
    consoles hosted on a Citrix XenServer platform
  • xvpdiscover: A tool that queries a XenServer pool, and writes the appropriate configuration files for xvp and xvpweb.

Screenshots and rpm’s for RHEL based distributions are available from their website
