Hello Folks,
Anyone know about the support possibilities of Xenserver(open source) on CentOS6..?
As I Googled and read alot of forums, but no luck. I have tried the followings.
OS: CentOS6
Kernel: 2.6.32-71.29.1.el6.x86_64
Arch: x86_64

When tried to install XenServer from source.
http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/Xen4.0
make xen
make tools
make stubdom

#make tools
Error:
make[3]: *** [check-build] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/root/xen-4.0-testing.hg/tools/check'
make[2]: *** [subdir-install-check] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/xen-4.0-testing.hg/tools'
make[1]: *** [subdirs-install] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/xen-4.0-testing.hg/tools'
make: *** [install-tools] Error 2

Added the file "/etc/yum.repos.d/XEN4.1.1_x86_64.repo" with the following lines.
[gitco-xen4.1.1]
name=RHEL/CentOS-$releasever - GITCO XEN4.1.1
baseurl=http://www.gitco.de/repo/xen4.1.1
gpgcheck=0
enabled=1

After that, executed
#yum install xen virt-manager kernel-xen
But it fails.

Any clue..?

Thanks,
Jay

Hypervisor support for Xen is not available for RHEL6 variants, including CentOS 6. Only Kvm hypervisors are supported.

while KVM is definitely preferable over Xen (not trying to start a flame, but it's native to RHEL6 after all), there have been messages about a custom port available on the centos-virt mailing lists.

Definitely not something I'd be willing to put anywhere near production, but might be fun to play with

Thank you for your response folks.

Regards,
Jay
