<div style="direction: ltr;font-family: Tahoma;color: #000000;font-size: 10pt;">I would always recommend the latest version of XenServer and of OpenStack. In particular there were a couple of fixes for race conditions that have gone into Kilo, so I would recommend
using that version.<br>
<br>
XenServer 6.5 with SP1 is the newest XenServer and has a number of performance and scalability enhancements that, even if you are happy with the feature set in earlier versions of XenServer, mean that I would recommend it.<br>
As a minimum, XenServer 6.2 would also work.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
Bob<br>

<div>Thank you guys.<br>
<br>
</div>
One last question: This 3 node setup is just a proof of concept of a bigger architecture (with around 30 nodes). I personally would prefer use KVM, so we can use Kilo and Neutron, but for some political reasons, we are really pushed to use XenServer (no problem
about XS itself, I think it is great), but we don't have enough time and "hands" to make it work.<br>
<br>
</div>
Thinking about it,i would ask (maybe <b>Bob</b> will give me the best answer) what should be the best choise for use Openstack with XenServer regarding their versions?
<br>
Maybe an older XCP with Juno or Icehouse? <br>
<br>
</div>
<div>And what about VMWare as it is as XenServer in <b>Group B</b>?<br>
</div>

</div>
Thank you again.<br>

>From my experience OpenStack + XenServer is really difficult to build, but it <b>
work</b>. Newest features like neutron, advanced cinder drivers, XenServer pool's, etc is not working well. At least with XenServer 6.2 and Icehouse release. If you know both technologies and don't know which to choose then use KVM.<br>
If you want to use XenServer then community member Bob Ball (<a href="mailto:bob.ball@citrix.com" target="_blank">bob.ball@citrix.com</a>) can help you more with this.<br>

<div>Hi Guys,<br>
<br>
</div>
I'm trying to setup a 3 node (controller, neutron and compute) Openstack setup, but i'm having a lot of trouble regarding the XenServer(6.5) setup.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>Looking around the internet for docs about XenServer as compute node, i've got the impression that the main effort of OpenStack is use KVM instead of XenServer, because the docs (and lots of another links outhere) are outdated.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>May i consider it true? Should i forget about XenServer and move to KVM?<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>What do you guys think about that?<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>Thank you.<br>
