Today on freshmeat<\/a> I noticed 2 useful utilities for anyone running Xen Servers.  <\/p>\n

The first is called Virt-top<\/a> it is a easier to read top like tool than xm top<\/i> that shows all virtual machines memory and CPU usage in a nice display including totals etc:<\/p>\n

<\/center>
The other –
Virt-P2V<\/a> – it’s a CD Image that you can boot a physical machine with that will then convert it to a virtual machine for you.  It will scp the drive image to a destination of your choice and create a config file to boot it after asking you some questions.  I intend to use this to move a VMWare virtual machine to Xen soon, will post here and see how it goes.<\/p>\n

Both of these come from a Red Hat employee, with some luck we’ll see these included in Red Hat Linux soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
