We will depracate support of XenServer 6.5 since MOS10, this patch

XenServer Plugin for Fuel 9.0

Requirements

Requirement Version/Comment
Fuel 9.0
XenServer 7.0 and 7.1
XenServer plugin for Fuel @PLUGIN_VERSION@
  • This plugin will not install XenServer or configure the Virtual Machines used to run the OpenStack services. Installation of XenServer and configuration of these Virtual Machines must be performed manually. We recommend all hotfixes are applied.
  • File-based storage (EXT / NFS) must be used. If using local storage then select "Enable thin provisioning" at host installation time
  • Each hypervisor must have the same access credentials as Fuel does not support per-node settings.
  • One Virtual Machine, which will be used to run Nova (the compute node), must exist on each hypervisor. This must be created as an HVM guest (in XenCenter, use the "Other Install Media" template) and configured to PXE boot from the PXE network used by Fuel.
  • XenCenter is expected to be used to configure VMs, and is required by the HIMN tool in the installation steps

Limitations

  • The plugin is only compatible with OpenStack environments deployed with Neutron with VLAN segmentation as network configuration in the environment configuration options. The plugin will disable incompatible options when the XenServer Release is selected.
