[ale] oVirt anyone?

[Beddingfield, Allen]

VMware has actually ported their Windows-only stuff to a web GUI.  In 5.5, that is the default, and you have to keep your VMs at an older hardware level to still use the VI client.
oVirt looks nice...  I just wish it supported Xen or XenServer.

I have multiple hosts tied to a single ovirt head and some standalone
head/host combo systems.

It works. VMWare should be worried. They should also be porting their
windows only management console to web GUI as fast as possible.

One Issue solved in next release is integration with IPA. 3.4 broke
something working in 3.2. 3.5 is in pre-release and is fixed. It allows
authenticated users to fully control their VMs power up and down and
provision new ones from templates up to their usage limits.

The back end is KVM and is rock solid. Memory sharing and thin provision
storage are excellent.
