That is correct, OpenNebula is happy running inside a VM, with
connectivity to the physical boxes where VMs are to run from.

XCP goes beyond the hypervisor and effectively offers much more
(storage, network, etc). We have evaluated its integration, while that
doesn't happen using libvirt on top of XCP is a nice choice to manage
it from OpenNebula. We haven't tried it though, and would be delighted
to receive some feedback on this.

Best regards,
