osxenapi 0.3.4

XenAPI library for OpenStack projects
This library provides the support functions needed to connect to and manage a XenAPI-based
hypervisor, such as Citrix’s XenServer.

Install Devstack on XenServer: https://github.com/openstack/os-xenapi/blob/master/tools/README.rst


Features
The following features are supported since 0.3.1:

VDI streaming
It will allow the library user to create XenServer VDI from a gzipped
image data stream; or create gzipped image data stream from a specified
XenServer VDI. By comparing to the existing dom0 glance plugin, the
image data gets processed on the fly via streams. So it doesn’t create
intermediate files. And it completely uses the formal VDI import or
export APIs when it exchanges VDI data with XenServer.
XAPI pool
With this feature, we can deploy OpenStack on hosts which belong to a
XAPI pool, so that we can get the benefits from XAPI pool features:
e.g. it’s able to live migrate instance between two hosts without
moving the disks on shared storage.

The following features are supported since 0.3.2:

Bootstrap compute node via a single command
Now we can support to boostrap an OpenStack compute node by running the
command of xenapi_bootstrap from a VM which is running on XenServer.
At the moment, only CentOS 7.x is supported.
