[one-users] OpenNebula 3.0 and libxenlight (new Xen toolstack)

[Tino Vazquez]

Hi Roger,

It is true that /bin/bash is not installed in every *nix, although it can be
installed and also a symlink can be created. Taking into account that bash
syntax is not completely the same as "sh" syntax, so I think is not that
unreasonable to have "bash" as a requirement for OpenNebula.

Regarding the remotes/im script, they won't use "xenrc" (only applies to
remotes/vmm/xen scripts), but you can change remotes/im/xen.d/xen.rb, lines
21-22.

XCP also offers the XCP toolstack, just saying because we are collaborating
with Xen.org [1][2], although the integration is based on XAPI rather than
libxl.

Regards,

-Tino
